What a beautiful horse your Jaffar is. Every time I see him move all I can think is, "What a beautiful horse!" Thank you for sharing!

[@marycastro4742]

I love the way you cheer your students on and also your beautiful horses . All the skill and training that you have it shows on all your beautiful horses and your students

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you Mary! ❤️

Shae, your like a proud 👏 mom cheering on your children the horses. Of course your students too, but the horses. Loved this video!

[@freespiritequestrian]

You’re right! I love them so much, every victory makes me so happy ❤️❤️❤️❤️.

[@sandimichaels2324]

The students and the horses did very well. Look at the smiles on their smiles. You should be overwhelmed with happiness. Jafar did real well. holding his head very great. Yeah whoooooo. Well done!!!! Congrads to everyone!!!!!!!

[@Mookielovescreatures]

Aww way to go Jafar!!!!! What a cool customer. Your horses are just so kind and willing and putting their heart into everything. So sweet!

[@freespiritequestrian]

I was so very proud!!! He’s such a good boy. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@fluffymountainbunny]

Wow look at Jafar so attentive and everything, especially for his first time! He did amazing; what a gem!

[@freespiritequestrian]

I was so proud! Thanks 😊

[@mandyb1320]

Wow, they all did awesome! I've said it before and I'll say it again, your my favorite trainer. You are so calm and gentle with your horses. You take your time to gain trust and a bond with them and you let them be a horse. I just love your training methods and that you care so much for the horses. Jafar was spectacular! I could just imagine how he would do in dressage in his gaited trots. I am falling for this horse and will miss him so much when you finely find a good home for him. Hopefully not for awhile. I really love watching the horses at events like this. Thank you so much!

[@bonniemott9119]

Love you taking us along to the show seeing everything I've never shown a horse or not been to many shows either so it was very interesting and I just love the enthusiasm you have for your horses and the love and the just helping the children learn how to do things it's just so wonderful I just thank you for all that you do and for putting these videos on for us to watch it's very enjoyable thank you so much

[@freespiritequestrian]

Well then I’m glad you could join us! It was a great day and good learning experience for everyone. Thank you 😊

[@rottiegirl0077]

They all did great. I like the variety of activities you do with them. Not only is it great for the riders but great for the horses too. Variety is the spice of life.

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you. I really enjoy doing all around riding. It’s so much fun! ❤️❤️

[@rottiegirl0077]

@@freespiritequestrian The coach I had during the summers was a lot like you. We did a little bit of everything. It was a lot of fun.

[@wilmapascha2996]

They ll did well and Jafar? He is a real Friesian now: brave and diligent at the same time. And his coat shined so wonderful!

[@jessie9384]

Oh wow, your students are fantastic, and the horses are incredible. its incredible to think where where these horses have come from and and how they look and act now . Unbelievable. Just lovely, what a beautiful day.

[@freespiritequestrian]

Thank you!

[@maureenstringer4362]

Oh WOW, I just loved this video, it’s heartwarming to watch, I used to love everything about competing, the preparation, then saddling up for your various events. 😁I felt proud of your students and horses myself 👏😊 you’ve just aced it all round, your students look very professional and ride very nicely. the horses were just wonderful!!! I can’t believe you’ve got such a great herd, top marks for putting soooo much into everything you do. One fun competition my sisters and I used to have a lot of success in (sorry, don’t mean to brag) was called “tip and out” everyone lined up and jumped a single hurdle until they “tipped “ We all rode horses between 15 and 16 hands, even as children and they were natural jumpers so it was a lot of fun. Sometimes it would just be the 3 of us left jumping against each other 🤣 Tons of fun. Thankyou for that very interesting video, loved it. X

[@freespiritequestrian]

Wow that sounds super awesome ha!!!! How exciting. Also, thank you so much for your kind words. I pour my heart and soul into my horses, students, and my program! ❤️

[@liseskadhauge14]

You are doing such a great job with the horses. It is so wonderfull to se that you school each horse, and not just letting them go only with students. Theese girls are så privileged that you give them so many high quality opportunities with the horses. 🥰👍🐎🏇👌

[@freespiritequestrian]

Yes! I honestly try to show every one myself first but once in awhile I give a student the opportunity. I do feel like I’m giving up something when I do but it’s just my silly pride. I’m so proud of my students, they are amazing! Thank you for watching.

[@susaneskra-fv2vu]

I love to see the shows and all the pretty ribbons. Great job 😊

[@avakershaw7854]

Love how good all the horse are being it's just so lovely to see 😊

[@vickiephilpitt7697]

Your Jiminy looks do much like the Florida State mascot "Chief". Same multiple spots, but I honestly can't remember if Chief is "red" or "brown. Jafar looks like he has had some training especially since he got three 1st place winnings & one 2nd place. ☆☆♡♡

How cool! Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️

weird question. but i would like to do a in hand show with my horse, but i am wanting to know if it is possible if i can go to a show just to do in hand?

[@freespiritequestrian]

That would be awesome! You could do showmanship, halter, and in hand trail at an open pleasure show! Some places may have in hand obstacle course competitions as well.

Hahaha!!! He just might have. ❤️😉😘

[@TLGHalloween]

Just FYI For the English riders doing trail. Use a plain leather halter with lead inside of their bridles. 😊

[@freespiritequestrian]

Actually you can use the English bridle too, it’s just easier when I’m managing several students and horses.

[@jaykb6587]

Many lifetimes ago now, I rode in a fairly exclusive western drill team. We were very strict about hand positions, etc. Watching Western riders now ... It just seems so strange to see right hands on the reins. When did this trend become accepted?

[@freespiritequestrian]

Does it really affect the functionalities of steering? There is more than one way to do things and if it works it works. If you only do things with one hand or on one side you develop a dependency and weakness on the opposite side. I believe in being ambidextrous with steering, saddling, bridling, and mounting. ❤️

[@jennifermastin7169]

You do an amazing job with the kids and horses. For some reason I feel like Jafar really needs to work on building his back muscles though. I feel like he has a big dip 😢maybe I’m wrong… don’t want to offend you so please don’t take it that way…

[@freespiritequestrian]

His back is a genetic trait. I have spent months building his top line, you have no idea how much I’ve worked on building his strength! It’s nothing to do with “building muscles”. You will never be able to reverse his back, as that is the way it is.

[@nobitsnoshoes]

as much as i hate freak'n bits...i do love that i don't see you using copper bits to make the horses drool & slobber. seeing "horse people" that use those evil things make me want to do violence. not that i would ever hurt anyone. shank bits for western? really? smdh.
