Get Your Horse to Lunge in Minutes NOT Hours

[@BasicHorseTraining]

I hope you find this helpful and that you see that it's OK for things to not be perfect. I'm far from perfect, but I can still train my horses, and so can you. 😊

This was very helpful! I finally got my yearling to lunge, it's be difficult to get him too finally lunge

I loved this video, as I have a two year old that I am trying to teach. I am not experienced, so I appreciate seeing the mistakes. Sometimes I feel like if things go wrong, I blame it on myself for not knowing enough. I really just need to start again, relax, and not pressure myself if things are not going 100% right ! I really admire your training style. Thank you for sharing your experience with us!

[@BasicHorseTraining]

Allow yourself to make mistakes and learn. That way you will allow your horse the same 😊

I recently purchased a OTTB who has done so much on the outside but slide to the first purchase we missed so many hidden behavior that’s we did look at. Your videos have helped so much in “retraining” him

Here for it! Can’t believe she is a proper adult horse already!!❤

[@BasicHorseTraining]

I know. She is having her first "proper outing in 10 days 😳. Lovely to hear from you 🥰

[@KingsMom831]

@@BasicHorseTraining oh my goodness! Will you be recording any of her first outing? This will be fun to see. 😁 Looks like Wayne has recovered quite well? Always nice to visit with you Josie.😊

[@BasicHorseTraining]

I have recorded her first outing, where I did groundwork first and then rode - that video is in BHT Academy, and she was a hot little number 😆 . Her first "proper" outing is to a dressage clinic and it is this week. I will video some of it and maybe post it, but I will wait until after to decide ... I may need a parachute 🪂 Wayne has recovered, thank goodness, but he is still working too hard!

You make it look so easy 😮

Beautiful way of teaching. Thank you.

You have a terrific energy and approach. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for another wonderful & informative video! Beautifully done and lovely mare! I am curious as to what material that is that composes the ground of your paddock in this video?

[@BasicHorseTraining]

If you mean the surface of my arena - It is softfall and sand. Softfall is a type of bark chip that is used under playground equipment.

Thank you Josie, we have a 2 1/2 year old Friesian filly. We would like to start lunging. When is a good time to do this?

[@MealoCrochet]

What bit would you recommend on a horse that is pretty hard headed and will take off running and I can't stop him or anything else that would help him?? Thanks!!

[@miekelouws8660]

I practice this with my horse. I can move my horse sideways with his shoulder, but then he will not move forwards...... He remains standing still...... I don´t know how to solve this problem..... I can walk next to/with my horse, but he stops, when I am standing still......

[@BasicHorseTraining]

If you watch you see me "lead" Lily forward with my hand. You need to teach the horse to follow the feel of the rope and your body language to move past you. 😊

[@miekelouws8660]

@@BasicHorseTraining , thank you for your answer and your advice 🍀. I am going to practice this.

[@BasicHorseTraining]

Let me know how you go 😊

My horse doesn't even walk 😔 shes not "scared" of the lunge line or whip either 😢
