FREE SPIRIT HEADS TO THE HORSE SHOW!

[@karaneal7732]

It is amazing seeing your "riding technique" transfer down to your students!! The horses and students were fabulous!! Please let them know.

[@LoJo99]

Couldn’t agree more..

[@cjwalthall11]

Absolutely agree.

[@sheilasmith5481]

I love this and am so glad you are on Facebook! One of a kind and so educational!! You should have millions of followers!! Many of us love horses but are unable to get involved yet. This fantastic showing is so amazingly helpful .

[@macichrisman8993]

Congratulations to all who participated! Showing is a lot of work .. I can’t get over how good Bagheera looks at 28 she beautiful

[@freespiritequestrian]

She’s such a gem!

[@mermaid2014]

​@@freespiritequestrianit shows how well you take care of her. That Morgan heritage is serving her well, she could live another decade!

[@madelineryan548]

There’s nothing like a bond between a horse and rider. I used to show before Covid and there was nothing me and my assigned horse couldn’t do together. If we didn’t place that was fine by me. In my book showing isn’t about getting prizes it’s about spending time with the horses

[@badgranny6311]

Gurl…Pink is your color!! The lipstick shade is on point, You look beautiful!! Your horses and young students were amazing..you have to be proud, we sure are..thanks for sharing 😊🐎🐎

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you 💞

[@pea1andHim]

What fun! Everyone looks so relaxed and chilled and the horses looked great and the students were fabulous. What fun it was. Thanks for sharing.

[@mikehenry6284]

What a fun day 😃. Everyone did so well, it was really nice seeing your students out there learning and building even more confidence. It's so awesome that you have horses to fill everyone's different needs. Your such an amazing teacher Shae, your students all want to impress you, which is so cool to see, because it really shows the amount of love and respect they all have for you 💜. I'm just so impressed with all these young ladies, you've taught them so well. Congrats to all, FSE really cleaned up.... lot's of ribbons. YaaaY!!! Super fun day, loved it, thanks for taking us along. Love and Blessings to all at FSE ❤️🙌 Jennifer

So much fun!!! Thank you

How fun! Everyone looks great. The Horses had fun 🐎

[@jojocanon2803]

I wish there was someone like you & your horses here in my town in Tennessee. My 11 yr old daughter was LOVE you & how good you are with young people. It's all about having fun & that's where she thrives 😂

[@ritaschultz6859]

I really Appreciate 💕 how you explained the different disciplines at the horse show .I really learn a lot from you , Thank you 🐎 So much 💕

[@freespiritequestrian]

My pleasure!

[@carilariviere505]

I love how you manage your stable with a string of well handled/trained horses that your students, who for any number of reasons are not able to own their own horse/pony right now, can still get the thrill and experience of competition. And that you don't place any expectations on horses or riders; yes it's a competition, but at this stage it's mostly about having the opportunity and having FUN !🤩 Gotta luv the Jafar Stallion of the month act! He knows he looks good when he does that! So nice that you know your horses so well. The part about allowing it so he could just get on with things is excellent horsemanship

[@annjohnson8437]

Thanks for taking us along with you guys to the show! Your students and horses did fantastic. You're an awesome riding coach and horseperson! Always so positive and patient. 😊 ❤ 👍

[@junebyrne4491]

They all had so much fun. I like how your students take care of their horses. The horses deserve it. They were all so beautiful. Gefar is so pretty when he prances. That is the friesian in him

[@lindac6416]

Wow he was so amazing when he snorted and walked around. He is so beautiful 🤩😍

[@freespiritequestrian]

There was a bunch of people standing in front of him too, everyone laughed 🤣

[@virtualselfie6899]

🎊🎉Happy, Happy Birthday, Ms. Piper! You and Jafar are rockin. What a horse-girl resume you're going to have with all your English pleasure and equitation shows! Yay! Shae, your riding-school girls show your horses so very well. Bagheera, you are so special 🦄🦄

[@cyndiebill6631]

I love how your horses take care of their riders no matter who’s on them. They just want please who ever their rider is. Your students are amazing. Congratulations to all of them for a great show. 👍👍for their amazing owner too! ♥️🐴👍😃

[@jojos4x458]

What a fun and good excursion!

[@cathykanavy7701]

That was amazing to watch! Very relaxing, no pressure. Congratulations to your students who obviously have a wonderful teacher and mentor! 🥰 Their youth and enthusiasm for horses and experience radiates 🐴🙌🏼! ❤

[@HumbleHeartHorsemanship]

Gefar was so hilarious with all his snorting and prancing! He looked so handsome, and full of himself. Lol!

[@lamare8565]

This is lovely that you do this. What fun! The young girls will remember this forever. I know I do, and I'm 64.❤

[@jeanbrown1225]

I really enjoyed getting to see your students show experience. Please thank your students for being willing to share with all of us on the internet. Your students have such quiet hands and seat that it was really just a pleasure to see. ❤😃

[@shirleycurl905]

I'm up watching you not only train your horses but train your students that there's more to riding a horse there's a lot of work that goes into taking care of that horse and it looked to me like you have instilled that in your student which is so important

[@lizzieb6311]

These are the best type of shows…smaller local shows where the horses and young equestrians get some good experience under their belt. All did beautifully ♥♥♥♥

[@Catalina58601]

Oh I would have loved the chance to be a girl in horse classes and shows! This was so sweet to watch. The girls all looked so professional and classic and they all seemed relaxed and confident in the spotlight.The horses were so well behaved and chill as well (pre show jitters are totally normal) Congratulations to you and your students and you're behind the scene helper, your husband. Nice work everyone! Great job!

[@MsMama59]

That was so exciting to watch! The horses were relaxed & the riders were in excellent form. Everyone performed beautifully! Congratulations to all! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@rachealsmith5138]

I just love seeing your students as they gain experience and confidence, and the horses as well! Your horses always look so great! ❤

[@rodandjudibowen5665]

Shae and Kyle, what a super show! Each of the horses are unique and so well behaved! Each moves to the "beat" of their different bodies. Jafar and Baghera have fascinating smoothness, especially Jafar. He hasn't found the right new home yet. But I'm sure he wouldn't mind being with your homies forever! Wahoo! 🤠🐎🐎🐎🐎❣

[@freespiritequestrian]

He’s not for sale right now. :)

[@cathykanavy7701]

@@freespiritequestrian No! Agreed! He’s bright, energetic, willing and well behaved He’s bold enough to be himself and remain listening to whomever is working with him under saddle with you, or on the ground. That was the epitome of give and take with horsemanship! 🙌🏼 🥰 It says a lot about you, Shae and how you teach while allowing Jafar to be himself! The experience alone is a win! Bravo!!! 😍

[@law7897]

Your students and horses, did such a good job xx

All four horses did amazing

Zazu takes really good care of his rider. Good job, Team.

I'm old, Baghera is my spirit animal, lol.

[@johnetteyeager1272]

I thought your horses looked very good. They reflected your training, care, and skill. The ladies are very fortunate to have you and Kyle. Your hard work is definitely shows.

[@barbrice721]

Some of my favorite memories was going to the fairgrounds and sleeping in the stall with my horse and waking up with him laying next to me. Those were the days. I miss em.

[@debrabiderman4275]

So wish I had met someone like you when I was a teenager. I was horsemad but my mom was NOT! So I got into trouble instead. Riding teaches respect and discipline. I had to wait until I was 30 to ride. Shows are fun! The most fun I had on Bongo was taking him to a Parade. Maybe you could do that with your horses and students.

[@ricklaurelnovotny4829]

Nice to see a coach wanting the students to have fun and be safe. Some take it so so seriously!

[@christinafragis7224]

Congratulations to all!! Your students are amazing riders and horsepeople and last but not least your horses are all gems - great work!

[@hollywill2226]

A horse show I could watch!! No noses pulled down between their front legs!!I hate that in today’s equitation realms😞you’re a super trainer in my book, Shae💖

[@MrBetc]

Oh wow, watching your crew brings back so many memories for me. I never showed ( I broke horses for riding) but had friends who did. This was over 40 yrs ago and so nice to see the shows are still goin on. Watching from Ontario Canada. Good Luck to everyone.

[@maryswanson1049]

What fun to watch. You are so aware of your horses. So in tune. They are calm and work smoothly with their rider. Wonderfully done.

[@cathyd3012]

That was so fun to watch. Curious horses put their noses out the trailer window. Love that. Your students seem so nice. It's the best to go to schooling shows with your riding buddies & riding on nice horses is an extra bonus (they all looked so healthy). It all kind of melted my heart, especially seeing Jafar do a showy trot.

[@maggieekane7845]

What a great time with the chosen horses and students. Everyone looked well and happy. Bottom line was enjoyment, support and bonding. Lovely to see the schooling and teaching techniques surface in the English Pleasure Class, as well as the English Equitation Class. All of the preparation and time coming together, really showcased Free Spirit Equestrian Farm beautifully. Thx for sharing this vlog! 🥰👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎

Fantastic experience for your horses & riders. Thoroughly enjoyable & educational post. Keep it up Shae!!! 💕💯💕

Happy birthday Piper! Piper and Jafar did amazing! Bagheera did very well for her age! Most horses around bagheera’s age ik have to be put on stall rest bc their too old but bagheera did amazing! So did everyone and I’m rly surprised how well Zazu did on those transitions!

Hi again SHAE It's challenging to find good reliable trainable lesson horses but yours are just wonderful. Such a great way to build confidence in your students to have reliable horses under them.

[@the.nerdy.mermaid]

Ahhh this brings back so many happy memories for me that I had almost forgotten about. I did a few western equitation and halter shows with my Bay gelding Storm in the mid 90’s when I was around 10 years old, and we won 1st place in equitation once. Stormy was such a good boy. He lived to be about 31 and my mom had had him since he was a colt ❤

[@jeannetteashlin1725]

Gated horses are a blast to ride. We had one when I worked at a day camp. If the group that was slotted for say the 10 o'clock hour didn't show up us wranglers would take some horses off property to play hide and seek. We had bareback pads. I would ride the gated horse. We would have some much fun out there hiding amongst the trees and going on various trails, etc. Nothing like getting paid to ride horses all summer long. Sadly I don't remember the mare who was gated. She was wide and so easy to ride due to this. 😁

[@kathymazey1299]

This is so interesting. I’m glad you did this video. Giving your students a chance to get the feel of showing what they have learned with their horses yet, not expecting anything more than to get exposure to this and enjoy themselves.

All the students and horses looked great! Looked like a beautiful day as well! I love that you also teach sportsmanship. I think, no matter what sport a person is in, sportsmanship says so much about not only the player/rider/skater, etc. but it says a lot about the coach and their program. So well done! ❤
