Edall has been in training with us for the past two months and we are so impressed with his development.

His good manners and sweet disposition make him a please to work with. He always looks to the rider to guild him to where he needs to go, staying light and responsive. Already giving us all four gaits I always look forward to our sessions together!

Edall would be best suited for an intermediate rider, but with more experience we believe he has the potential to become a great beginners horse!

PM us for more information on this outstanding young gelding!

✨Edall from Northstar US2019105470✨

Meet Edall, affectionately known as Fuzz, a stunning 4-year-old Icelandic gelding. American-bred, this charming 4-gaited horse boasts a sweet, willing, and kind personality that is impossible not to fall in love with. Edall naturally exhibits a beautiful Tölt both in the field and under saddle, showcasing his impressive heritage.

Edall has undergone a month of young horse and liberty training at Taktur and has continued his training for the past two months with us at Thorlak. Though young, he shows tremendous potential as a future pleasure and trail horse, especially with a confident rider.

Don't miss the opportunity to make this extraordinary Icelandic horse a part of your life. For any questions or to arrange a meeting with Edall, please contact us!

Last Saturday we hosted a fun day full of drill team and horses for our students! Though it was a windy day, we still enjoyed ourselves immensely. So proud of how all the riders and horses worked together to perfect each drill. It was so much fun and we are excited to continue this throughout the rest of the year!

🌼 Solhvit from Beat N’ Branch 🌼

This little mare is the full package. Solhvit is a luxury to ride. She’s soft in the reins, has a comfortable, walk, beautiful natural tölt, an elastic trot, and a floating canter. She will also collect and carry herself beautifully at any gait. She is responsive and easy, and always ready whether out on the trail or in the arena. Contact us with any questions.

We wanted to wish our intern Lucas a Happy birthday. From waking up at early hours to get all the chores done before anyone else is awake, to training late into the night. Lucas is extremely talented and a hard working young man, one our farm can’t live without. Many people who frequent our barn know Lucas as a very kind and hard working kid, his love for horses showing with every ride. We appreciate you Lucas and love watching you grow in your horsemanship everyday!

Last weekend was the Gamankeppni Show Hosted by Locust Hill and organized by .
Shows no matter the location or time of year are always stressful for both horse and rider, made this show as fun and comfortable for us riders and horses alike. We had a lot of first timers this time around and they all settled in as if they were back at home! And for that we want to thank the whole crew for making that possible! This was one of the most educational competitions we have been to and are excited for the next one this Fall!

Check out this interview with Maria while on her business trip to Germany and Iceland. It’s about bridlesless riding and the introduction of a neck rope.

Maria Octavo: The basic work with the neck rope

Riding with a neck rope is a special challenge. It requires a lot of trust between horse and rider, as well as very precise aids. We have talked with Maria Octavo of thorlakicelandics about this interesting topic:

Horses are therapy. Animals are therapy. Nature is therapy. Go get yourself some therapy! ✨🦋🌻We are so blessed to have access to over 500 acres of trails to ride on without having to trailer off farm. We have thoroughly been enjoying them. #thorlakicelandics #usihc #summer #trailriding #nature

The horses here at Thorlak are all primarily kept outside on pasture. Keeping them as close as possible to their natural habitats back home in Iceland. We see a huge change in the way the horses are mentally and physically. Being able to move and roam as much or as little as they’d like. If you are looking for a place to pasture board your horse surrounded by other Icelandic horses and large bluegrass fields. Reach out to us. Here you can see #höldurvomrappenhof had a lot of fun, but has no problem looking stunning for his training session. ✨🌼 #thorlakhorses #teamthorlak #usihcproud #usihc #höldurvomrappenhof #outdoors #dirtydirty #happyhorses

💥Who else is gearing up for #nostirrupnovember?💥Höldur vom @rappenhofbreuna and Maria will be competing in the Individual Pros division! 💪💥 @resonantriding #nostirrupnovember competition is a great way to test your horseback riding abilities and your creative skills! If you haven’t already sign up for this fun event for any level/combination of horse and rider! 🦄❤️‍🔥🦄📸 @mungo_arts Höldur’s brow-band made by @mouse_hedrick✨@usihc @taktur_horse @invaderlala @resonantriding @montaire.icelandics @a.freygang @octavo.maria @jmj_farms_usa #barebackriding #höldurvomrappenhof #fallsunsets🍂🍁🍂 #usihcproud #icelandhorse #4gaiter
