Head down - part 3 - fast horse learns to relax and slow down

Part 3 of 5
This gelding is a great example of how fast horses can learn to relax in a very shot amount of time. He didn't want to even walk at the beginning on the session and was very high headed and pacey. After 3 days, he was learning to maintain a slow speed, gait, and stay relaxed!

Wow gaited horses are really something, their conformation 😍

[@clegg334]

great training video...thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.

Awesome content and vid! You're a blessing to gaited horses everywhere. It doesn't matter whether a horse walks, trots, canters, OR gaits, and all in between. Releasing tension in the poll, neck , and back is the way. Great job!

Love the video!😁 What saddle are you using?

Do you recommend using the Mcgregor releasing bit for training and trail riding?

[@IvyS]

I do, but I recommend doing this training in a snaffle first, which I talk about in video 1. You can totally do all the training in a snaffle and trail ride, but only if you have done good training and feel safe.

What kind of horse is this gelding?

[@IvyS]

I think twh, which I mention at the beginning, but I'm not sure and it really doesn't even matter what breed.
