Happy Saturday. If we listen to our horses they will tell us what they enjoy. Hunter has taught us that he loves to ride off to the sunset with his favorite girl. Notice the nice loose rein of our young rider. If I could help you be more successful with your Equine partner please let me know. I’m always looking for more horses and people to guide. #horsetrainer #painthorse #loxahatchee #trailriding #youngrider #sunset #southflorida #peaceful
Pretty girls loving the water part two. #ottb #delraybeachfl #horseplay #floridarain #horsetrainer
The rain over the weekend stopped the riding from being accomplished. Yet, the horses always find a way to make the best of the situation.
Happy Horses.
Hunters favorite part of the lesson.

While driving a fine horse both history and tradition flow through the lines #horsetrainer #warmblood #driving #blackhorse #horseandbuggy
If feels so nice to roll in the grass.
Every person that went by us had big smiles to share. We got one “Great to start them young” comment. It was a family trail ride with Mom on Noel following along. Grandma and little brother were way back there on but made it back to the barn.
It’s nap time for this family. #horsetrainer #horseplay #lakeworth #kidsandponies #trailriding
Candee, Scott and I are a team working together to teach Knight what he needs to be successful long term.
Candee and I worked on the long rope with Knight. Then, Scott and I worked with me on Knight and him as handler focusing on go stop turn left and right.
Candee asked if she could just sit on him. Of course, it’s her horse.
Then off she went.
It’s very brave of her to get on a coming 3 year old colt that I have been on a total of 3 times.
Good day.
Today, Sophie, the dominant young warmblood, softened up nicely. After a few minutes on the long rope she was doing inside turns with ease. Prior to last week the owner said she would not go left. On went the owners western saddle without incident.
Sophie looked at my with that kind eye. I knew she was ready for the next step.
This is the first time mounting her. I did it a half a dozen more times staying on longer each time. After the last time, I had the owner come over to rub and love on her to build a new stronger relationship. A little grainy but you only get a first time once. #mares #horsetrainer #younghorsetraining #firstride #lakeworth #warmblood
The Invisible String
More then riding, driving, jumping, polo, trail riding grooming or anything we do with horses what is happening in this video is why I continue to be driven to be with horses.
Candee is Knights human. I am simply thier guide. Candee, on this day, opened her heart and mind to truly allow herself to parent Knight in his language, Equus.
After we did some work on the rope, some desensitization with the toys. They were both in that soft, fuzzy mindset needed to accomplish what happened next.
I told Candee, after rubbing all over him, to stand by Knights head, put her hands down at her sides and walk.
Carefully, unsurely, they both began to walk. Turn right, turn left, he stuck by her side. Mother and son in balance. The best gift there is. The Invisible String. #younghorsetraining #horsetrainer

This little one had a full morning. She loved every moment of it. She thanked her human for inviting me over to teach him to pamper her like every painted girl deserves.
Ok all you riders. We all did around the world. Now it’s this generations turn to practice it. Hunter and his young human partner show us how it done during our horsemanship lesson this afternoon.
Riva, the Gypsy Vanner, day two with the polocrosse net. She’s so fun. #younghorsetraining #horsetrainer #naturalhorsemanship #delraybeachfl #gypsyvanner #polocrosse
Dino and Enzo after our lesson this morning. Both of these warmblood geldings were mostly used for driving but now are ridden regularly by their owner and myself.
A beautiful pair. They look like they should be on a chess board.
