This is so helpful. I have been using the drive approach with my horse and it’s getting much better.

Nice Ryan. Like your explanations.

[@chrisp7548]

Love this video. So clear! Thanks!!

Love your videos Ryan! Would be really interested to see a video with your thoughts on "balky" horses- those that spook under saddle but are actually quite confident.

Do you usually use 12 lead ropes or longer?

Great videos, I always learn something new. I don't have a horse but volunteer at a therapeutic equestrian center, any tips are helpful.

BAcking up "opens the gate": and builds in long term lightness. WHne starting this kind of exercise. DRAMATICALLY lower your lead hand while raising your hip hand. Open th edoor. Eventually you can sit on the corral fence and send youor horse anywhere you like

My horse is similar to yours in that when she crosses the part of the circle where I’m in front of her shoulder she starts to look in or slow down, or even turn in and stop.. I can’t figure out how to position myself to not have her do that. I’ve tried walking more behind and only looking at the hip but then I feel like I’m following her around, I’ve done not moving at all and often she stops behind me.. any help on this?

Coming from an english perspective Is it ok to use a short line rather than a longer lunge line as used in uk. My horse is a 6yr old cob x Irish draft. He's 17.1hh. I love practising the natural horsemanship methods but do worry about his joints

When I switch directions my 2-year-old gilding actually is a king of that but I have a quick question when I take them into a round pin he likes the galavant and just sit there and be lazy and eat grass He's also a stubborn horse he can be very hot tempered and I saw your video for food aggressions I actually tried that with him and to no avail he tried to kill me would you have any more pointers because I'm having trouble getting him to move his headquarters and if I ask him and he doesn't understand it only takes him one second to just want to kick my butt inside out and I tell him easy calm down there I said it's okay if you don't get it I said I'm being as patient as possible which means I'm not actually losing my patience when I'm actually patient I'm patient and calm I have no frustration you know happening and so he'll eventually nod his head and let me get them to try again I'm not I don't kind of do a lot of people do which is pestering him to do it I just ask him and let him think about it he does respond to me I use a dressage whip which by the way I have his mother and his mother was abused with a whip and he would beaten up and slugged in the nose and I don't know if he ever got the whip treatment from them but he shuts down if you try to smack him with a whip or he'd try to kick your butt inside out but when I use the whip and I assume that actually mean business like not hurting him with it but I actually smack it super hard and ground and smack myself in the face and then he's like crap so that's what I mean like I don't try to hit myself in the face with it it's very windy a lot of times I am I just wanted to ask to see if you knew anything else that can help me because I'm trying to figure out how to train him he doesn't seem to be like a normal horse the way he acts I never trained a horse like him in my life until I got him it was back in 2019 and June My mom saw a ad on craigslist for a free 6-month-old horse and he winded up being four to five months old and yeah he was 4-month-old 5 months cuz he was born January 28th so as I was saying when I got them we started training him on a manners picking up his feet You know just being letting him be a baby horse even though he didn't have any other horses to play with that first and then he was 10 months old and his original owners contacted me saying they were selling his mother and I thought wow she's okay I said I made that horse a promise so I'll go ahead and get her and that's how I got her I know you she's been whipped and abused behind my back at I moved him from the place that did that to him but when I boarded out a couple other places they and one place put wiring around his neck which with electric wire luckily was it connected to the fence anymore and he was very smart he remember how I taught him if anything happened like that to hold still and matter of fact he laid down and waited until I got there and then he stand up and said get this crap off my neck and then this that was the second place I had a map but the third place I had on that whipped him and starved him and stole his feed and I have him on expensive feed and so now he's at the fourth place and he's loving it and everybody loves him they're always going on look at your little baby so he's polite you can push his head and he'll take a hint if he puts his he learning right now from me space he gets up every space to try to hug me and he also gives me a lot of kisses and he also tried to eat my shirt and I'm teaching him space because he also had the habit of pulling my pants and I mean down so yeah I just thought I asked if you have any thoughts on what I can do to train him I watched your video and I kind of have a similar technique I can always give it a try and again cuz he's 2 years old now and I haven't tried it on at the 2-year-old but I used to have no problem at feeding times

For too many amateurs, the "face up" becomes the release they like but it screws up a lot of their efforts. I like my horses to understand to release when I ask for a stop to just stop in whatever direction I ask them. I just want them to stop.

[@HobbitHomes263]

When thinking about some challenge for your horse FIRST ...go watch horses in a herd. Best case is YOUR horse in a heard. Watch how they move other horses or are moved BY other horses

Ryan, thank you for this. I have one question. Is she pregnant?
