Horse Rider trash alert π¨ Andrew McConnon is a 5* inventor who lives on the east coast USA. He has been very popular of recent years. And very much adorn by the public. Sadly, he is not who we thought he was. A lot of the top competitive riders are like this; put on a great face to the public and abusive when they are training in private. This is horse abuse. It's not "upper level training", there's no disguise or excuse for horse abuse.
4 year old Rosie doing amazing job hacking out in the forest π³ bitless and centered in her all her 5 foundational traits.
Welcome Fall πsuch a beautiful time of year for everyone
Just one part of how we do our foundation training for any horse (this one just happens to be young) we ride them at all speeds on a loose rein, and hack them out in the forest on a loose reinπ³ horse in the video is The Amazing Rosie πΉ
Mitch practicing his passages in the outdoor arena today because it was so lovely outside. All posturing and collection is coming from the seat. As he is completely bit less and the reins are not tight. No spurs either. This is his favorite move. Piaffe is a lot harder for him. So for now we will be passage Royalty π
Major one of the farm dogs loves the horses. He gives them kisses π
Another Olympic dressage rider EXPOSED abusing horses during training... but anyone riding bitless or without spurs is not allowed to enter a show or even regarded as legitimate. But THIS IS??? What is WRONG WITH PEOPLES BRAINS π§
Ever wondered if Collection is dependent on bit or rein contact? Here are videos as proof ( FACTS) that it's not. From 2 different very respectable professional trainers. The possibilities are endless when you get in alignment with what the horse needs. π«Ά
Mitch & Kylie developing the passage movement bit-less & spur-free. π―ππͺ

We have happy horses thriving in a natural habitat and happy, grateful people in our community. It's nice to be surrounded by horses that appreciate their lifestyle and humans that appreciate all the sacrifices and hard work that we have to make to make this happen for everyone.

Rip is doing amazing with his mounted training. Rip is 5 years old and his first introduction to training was driving. And now he's learning how to carry a rider so that he can be ridden by members of the riding school! He's a good size horse, perfect for adults or anyone big and tall. We weight limit all of our horses so that they're never carrying more than 10% of their bodyweight on their back. It's notoriously a problem in the Equestrian world people overweight Horses backs. This is something that we take very seriously and will never do within our community. Because we respect our horses and comfort. Rip weighs about 2300lbs and is mid 17hands he can handle riders that are over 200lbs! He is surprisingly quite talented with a high-level of balance and coordination. For riders who enjoy a bigger style horse he actually has a lot to offer even if you are not big and tall. If you like Rip please inquire about booking a lesson on him! Thank you π
Do you love fancy, barefoot, bitless, high-performance warmbloods? If yes, you are in the right place ππππ
Mitch you are too cool for school π«
Today was a very special day hosted a ceremonial blessing of the horses by the wonderful Rev. Mark from Community Greenland congregational Church. Owners held their horses for their group blessing and individual blessing in the outdoor large dressage arena. And the horses that were in the pasture next to the blessing, came running down the hill to also receive their blessing, was a very special and heartfelt moment for everybody to see the horses come running down the hill to receive their blessing from God's steward.
Beautiful fall day at the farm.
Nothing brings us more joy than to see our resident horses peacefully enjoying their life sprawled out on 20 acre grass fields. The grasses in our fields are Timothy and orchard grass. We do not plant short sugary grasses. Please enjoy this video of our horses enjoying their lives. The way nature intended them to in groups on tall, grasses free.
