A FULL DAY day at the barn!

[@kimberlymurphy418]

Thanks!

[@ritaschultz6859]

Your a excellent teacher Teaching your students to Care for the horses are Life lessons that will endure

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you! I really do care about them, and give my all. I think teaching them compassion and care is just as, if not more, important than riding. I hope that helps them in the long run. ❤️

[@markstone2036]

I am impressed by these fun and confident young women. Miss Shae, you are mamma to them and to your gorgeous horses. These girls will remember you for the rest of their lives.

[@terrishepherd3266]

You Shea, are an Amazing Woman! Sharing your gift with these young girls is quite an honor. God Bless you Shea🙏

[@salmabenmoussa9417]

Everyone looks great! Your horses look so happy and healthy (:

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you! This is the best compliment ever. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@sylviarivas8817]

So this is what Horse Riding Lessons are like! There is so much more respect to children and horses than there was when I was a child.❤

[@carolahmed8375]

I know you train the horses really well and they are so precious and your a beautiful lady inside and out!!!🤓❤️🫶🏻🪻🐶

[@kathyschmidt6917]

How happy all the girls look. I bet you are a fun and kind teacher. Plus your horses are amazing with the different riders.

[@wakingohiomama9110]

Shae you are making these young ladies dreams come true as well as yours!! The feeling you had as a child i am now experiencing! It's in reverse! I will do whatever i can possibly do to breathe new life into my purpose!! Love all these guys the horses and you guys too of course!🐎💜❤🐎💜❤🐎💜❤🐎

[@dianelewis5991]

My 11 year old granddaughter takes English riding lessons and she has learned so much. Your horses are all amazing.

[@susaneskra-fv2vu]

I also would have loved 😍 my lessons like this. I rode for years walking and trotting in a circle single file. The horses 🐎 just followed each other. We maybe got to canter one or two times an hour by ourselves until we reached the back of the line.

[@AngelaWard-zb7xn]

Students are great and learning so much ❤

[@lousylvester923]

The students are so silly. So much fun

[@glorialopez7167]

They must all have a good bond with the horses ❤

[@Leomo470]

That brown n white spotted horse is lovely coloured

[@susaneskra-fv2vu]

I would have loved doing different exercises on horseback. My lessons were walk, trot and canter in a circle.when I was young. What a great program.

[@CoolWolves-xp7to]

I love your videos so much keep on doing it with the kids. They are so funny. I love watching everybody ride. It’s entertaining big fan and please do more videos.❤😊

[@nikkirutland9814]

Beautiful....Happy horses, happy students....I love that you incorporate ground work into your lesson programme....I was never taught how to ground work horses when I learnt to ride...🐎

[@freespiritequestrian]

It’s so important!

[@marthafadul6367]

Your students are amazing i hope all your horses will stay heathy ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ i wish i had a horse love you guys

[@diamondwhite1]

You have such amazing place there with all your horses me Arlo is very handsome indeed

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you! Yes, Arlo is super fun to ride and he’s a beautiful boy! ❤️❤️❤️

[@rodandjudibowen5665]

It's great that you have different kinds of horses to train your students on, Shea. The horses were tuckered out . . . but not your students! 🤠💓

[@freespiritequestrian]

Yes! A variety indeed haha! 🤩😊😂🐎

[@jeannevera8672]

Shea, your students are so sweet and smart! I love the way you teach them with kindness and share your knowledge with them and I am crazy in love with all your horses. Your husband deserves a great big hug for all he does too!!!

[@sarakalenkiewicz8995]

I’m always so impressed with your horses 🥰 You have an amazing program for both the kids and horses!

[@freespiritequestrian]

That means so much to me! Thank you. ❤️🦄✨💜🐴

[@lindasmith744]

Nice to do all aspects of horse care with your students! Looks like a fun lesson program, lucky students to have this opportunity!

[@freespiritequestrian]

Yes it’s really important that they learn all parts of horsemanship! Thank you ❤️🐴🥕

[@lauraowens473]

Fun day for sure. I miss those days when I had my horses at a boarding stable. I love having my own place now but there are times it would be nice to have good times like these.

[@freespiritequestrian]

Yes I totally get what you mean :).

[@Isobel201]

this takes me back to my teenage pony club days when I used to ride, I love your program and how you run things, so refreshing to see.

[@freespiritequestrian]

That is SUCH a compliment! Thank you ❤️

[@maureenstringer4362]

The girls all doing so well plus enjoying themselves , you have at least two standout pupils there with real style 😉 you’re horses are wonderful. ❤

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you! Everyone did a fantastic job and everyone is at a different stage in their journey. ❤️🐴✨

[@ricklaurelnovotny4829]

I love arlo!!!! All sweet but something about arlo!!!!!

[@sueannemarshall-wr9fg]

Excellent thought out plan.

[@CoalWarning]

This reminds me so much of equestrian programs when I was a kid! Nothing beats spending the day doing stuff with horses! 🐎

[@freespiritequestrian]

Exactly!

[@amandamogan]

Your so amazing your such a owner to all of the horses

[@bri.boyers0]

Your students did great!! I hope one day i can be like you!🫶

[@kinleywilliams9520]

Love you video everybody and every pony looks amazing

[@avadusci8999]

I love how the girls can be themselves. With my old instructors they made me feel so closed off and not friendly enough to joke around or be silly. I love what you do

[@freespiritequestrian]

Yes I felt that way too. It’s important to be balanced. Personable, fun, yet professional and a mentor. I cannot stand stuffy trainers, like this is supposed to be fun yet we also work hard too!

[@idunahlin2002]

You r such a good and Fun instructor ❤

[@kristyeckhardt4004]

I love 💕 watching all the students everyone seems to be having a lot of fun and the horses are enjoying it also.

[@freespiritequestrian]

❤️❤️❤️

[@juliasharp5722]

You are such an excellent teacher your horses look so happy keep going!!!❤

[@athenanwonderland]

Loved seeing all the students and horses happy-go-lucky 🐎 ❤️

[@freespiritequestrian]

Yes that’s our vibe for sure!!! ❤️❤️💜💜🐴🐴✨✨

[@mandyb1320]

What a great program for your students! So happy you filled your dream. Your helping these beautiful horses that also helps the students. I loved watching the students have fun and the horses loved the attention. loved the video, thank you!

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you so much!

[@WildHumanIsland]

My favourite breed is Cob/Gypsy Vanner because it is the breed of my heart horse. Fully support your channel to! 😊🎉

[@kathrynsinclare8459]

You and Charming are both precious. Today is my first day to see your Vlog. I was especially interested in seeing the auction process, and now I’m hooked on seeing how Charming progresses. I think the two of you are a good match. I really like the shape of Charming’s head. Nice! Well this has been an unexpected journey today; from looking at the available horses at the auction, then the auction and all that it entailed to seeing Charming at home enjoying his new life. I’m so thankful that he has you. He is a delightful and Charming gelding. So happy for both of you. Give him a good scratch and many kisses for me. 😊👋🏻🧑‍🦳

[@freespiritequestrian]

How cool! Welcome to the channel. I’m so glad you’re enjoying the process. It’s such an amazing experience ❤️

[@mdtrolli]

You are amazing and now you will be able to do your work amazingly and achieve your goals❤

[@freespiritequestrian]

Yes! Thank you 😊

[@karenryancrawford6401]

I love watching the different kids! Gosh I remember pestering my parents to buy me a horse from about 5 years old, well into my teens. We went to Chincoteague, VA all the time and I really thought my Dad was going to buy one of the auction ponies. Nope, we were city (DC) people, and he knew my Mom would not have been happy. 😥

[@freespiritequestrian]

Same here! I would beg and beg lol! I want to go there so bad!!!!! So jealous you have been there before.

[@mechrissybradley9569]

A great day with the horses 🐴🐎💕

[@brittanyparks2850]

I love how you do this for kids it’s so cool

[@freespiritequestrian]

That looks so fun! Horses are the best ❤

[@rottiegirl0077]

How fun! You're so lucky to be able to do something you enjoy so much. You have a great program. The girls are fortunate to me a teacher like you.

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you! I’ve worked really hard (and still do everyday) to make it happen! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@joannemillermon2776]

Love seeing the ease the students have with these amazing horses. Do you find most students are girls ? Where's the boys ?

[@s1mply.laur3n]

Appendex’s are my favorite horse too!❤️

[@carolynstewart8465]

What a fantastically fun instructor you are. Have you seen the disney movie called the Horsemasters? Story about a super strict riding school❤

[@mishloud4215]

You are sooooo good to your horses!

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you! I really try.

[@jumperringequestrian]

It looks so fun to ride i your barn! Lesson people at my barn can be super mean. These girls look really kind

[@freespiritequestrian]

Awww thanks! I really try to make it a wonderful place :). I would never tolerate that behavior, they would be warned then out the door after that. Respect is key 🔑 🐴❤️.

[@minnieroberts2756]

Love the names of the horses great program you have

[@freespiritequestrian]

🤣

[@michelleb1248]

Great video!

[@susanwalt4659]

What you're doing with kids is great. Even my 4-H leaders didn't do this with us.

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you so much 😊

[@Oakwoodstables4ever]

Love your videos

[@justsomeone5676]

[@lexiash6403]

I loved watching this I wish I would do this I can only do a trot I’m learning but also I just loved this

[@freespiritequestrian]

That’s a great accomplishment!

[@benedichtehovaldt7193]

when I got riding lessons when I was a little younger. Did we not learn groundwork, and since I want to buy my first horse, I feel that it is a challenge that I have not learned groundworking.

[@benedichtehovaldt7193]

watching your videos helps a lot. so I can learn a little more about training on my own. love your videos❤️❤️❤️

[@livingnow7017]

❤❤❤

[@ariafoland3362]

I love your horses and I have a horse and donkey

[@freespiritequestrian]

How cute!

[@celestinacowgirl9075]

nice

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thanks!

[@GuiltyPleasure72]

You talk about having wanted this as a kid and I too wanted a horse so badly. I was at the neighbors barn as often as I was allowed. Having said that, I’m not 48 and I’m seriously wondering if it’s typically just youngsters in programs such as yours.

[@acosmictemple]

I loved this, I wonder if you can help me out together an online training program. Great work you have here! Awesome channel and a dream come true. Thanks for sharing, such an inspiration

[@freespiritequestrian]

How can I help you? ❤️

[@lylakroeker36]

Nice

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thanks!

[@cateknapp3978]

oh my goodness your horses are so well behaved and I see you student whering the jacket like thing what are the called and why do you use them?

[@malachijamieson-te4sw]

I love horses I am saving up to get one can you please give me pointers and what to look for

[@paulafoster6491]

I a beginner rider too

[@kylamaehorses82]

the Grey horse looked like he was limping

[@freespiritequestrian]

Yeah no, he’s gaited…

[@rootofbeauty1421]

Not related to video but wondering your thoughts: Are western saddles or endurance saddles easier or nicer on a horses back than english because of the difference in the tree? Thanks and love you!

[@freespiritequestrian]

It all depends on the horse. I wouldn’t say one is better or worse. You can get custom trees with both styles of saddles.

[@kimberlyjohnson-clark2886]

Don't be afraid to wear your bright lip red lipstick you do you and let everybody else do themselves you're beautiful inside and out and I'm 60 years old and 40 years ago I was a working student and my happy place was the barn. I will never forget it I wish I had as good a teacher As You Are. I'm blind now and I'm looking for an instructor that's willing to take on the challenge. I ran into an old friend who was an awesome Rider one of the best I've ever seen and he's seventy-one years old now but he says I can come to the barn anytime I want so as long as I can find somebody to drive me, I'm going, wish me luck

[@freespiritequestrian]

💖💖💖💖 I hope you can find someone!

[@karenryancrawford6401]

Is Gaston your Canadian horse? I had read where they are hard to find? Is that true?

[@freespiritequestrian]

Yes he is! Yes, they are rare 🖤💎🐴.

[@milla713]

How much do you charge per running lesson? Please do a video😊

[@freespiritequestrian]

It’s all on my website :) link in description.

[@thecrazykidz3046]

I wish one day I could go up and meat you and your horses

What is jimineys bridle called?

[@mdtrolli]

[@s_lily813]

Do you have lessons for more experiensed riders, if there still on the younger side? 13-15 I would love to take lessons sadly i live and ride in Sweden :( Butiful horses!❤️

[@freespiritequestrian]

My program is majority adults now along with 11-15 year old students.

[@katherineknapp8838]

And sooooooo what is your name?? I don’t think I’ve actually heard anyone call you by name, nor remember if you ever introduced yourself. Love your channel and especially when you go to the auctions, you put the cost of what they go for….most others do not. Thanks!

[@freespiritequestrian]

Sorry! I do in some videos lol. My name is Shae. I will get better about that ha! Thank you so much 😊

[@Apollo-Mia]

Hi

[@ECole-le7we]

Do seniors ride horses? I ask, because my orthopedist took a bunch of x-rays recently; and he told me my joints are more like 20 year old joints not like the joints of a 70 year old, which I am. I assume this means that there are some things I could do with horses. And since more and more seniors are practicing yoga, climbing mountains, etc., it seems like an untapped market for equestrian programs like yours. It would not only potentially profitable, I would think working with horses would provide the mental stimulation seniors need.

[@bellalucas5524]

I wish I could do your program

[@debbieadkins2803]

I really wish I This looks like a lot of fun! These horses are so lucky to have you and these girls riding and taking care of them!👍👍
