5 Steps To Better Body Control, Under Saddle

Again, an older video. I am riding a bridle horse but put him in the snaffle for this video. It shows not only body control while riding but that a soft mouth can respond to any equipment when properly used by the rider.

Matt Sheridan demonstrates his program for gaining better body control over your horse from the saddle.

5 Steps To Better Body Control, Ground Work

I definitely need to update these videos but sharing info again as it is still relevant.

The mare in the video was highly reactive and would drag a handler across the pen just 20 minutes before fming the outcome of good ground work.

Matt Sheridan demonstrates his program for gaining better body control over your horse from the ground. Matt's program translates to working under saddle.

We were finishing up at the barn this evening and had a great view of the Space X launch.
You can see the return booster in several of the photos.

Merry Christmas...I mean, finally it's feeling a little bit winter. Thankful for the moisture. It is much needed.

Nice cool day to spend riding some horses with my wife. We made it 30 years this past December 30 and we still like hanging out but obviously need some selfie practice. 😆

I really appreciate my students...My crew! They are so good to each other and me and are a lot of fun. What we do isn't easy. If it was...

It's awesome to see them having fun even when things don't go as planned. Kristin Felix and Laura Rene' Johnson, you rocked this one.

Congratulations to Kristin Felix on your new horse, Stella Rosa. We look forward to great things with you and her in 2025. This is going to be a fun journey. I was able to "test drive" her before purchase.

Braden Johns update for those following. He is stable and breathing on his own. Now in the slow process of waking up from a serious injury.
