The Madden Method - Beezie teaches a lesson

[@Nicole-qc5dh]

I met Beezie over 30 year's ago at the Bloomfield Hunt Club in Michigan. She was up and coming on the jumper circuit, showing a ton of promise. I was probably 8 years old. She was riding my Aunt's bosses horse's in the show, so we had access. I was in awe of her. When I started lessons, I wanted to be just like Beezie. I wound up as an eventer, rather than a show jumper, but I'll never forget the one who made me want to fly.💓😊

Thank you so much for posting something like this! I can't get training now, and want to have showjumping lessons.......we were making so much progress....and now.....nada. Stay safe! We really appreciate you and the channel!

[@joycee5493]

I love doing these kinds of bending and circling exercises. They are so suppling!!! Have fun girls, the rest of us will live vicariously through you.

[@BadHairdayKimmie]

Love the lesson from Beezie. There is so much information in here. John, great camera work. Stay safe everyone. The more we all stay in now, the faster it will be over.

[@johnmaddensalesinc]

CatsRUFOs John tried his best! 😉

[@pariahmouse7794]

This place looks like a horse amusement park, it is so gorgeous! These ladies are SO LUCKY! I hope they keep doing these, they are very informative!

[@moonsmilk333]

Please keep uploading these while we can't ride!! I still want to learn!!!

[@MFeventing]

This is so interesting and gives such a great focus with no travelling/shows. Would love to see more!

[@carog7467]

This is awesome!!! Can’t ride anymore because of a back injury, this is so refreshing ☺️

[@sophiecmoyer]

I haven't ridden consistently in many years but it is so peaceful & familiar to watch these lessons! Love Beezie. Thank you for sharing.

[@julieb5745]

The closest I will come to having a lesson with her. Thanks for posting. As an aside in my next life I would love Kathryn’s (Catherine). Beautiful posture. My spine has a slight curve so I always looked slightly slouched.

[@paitynanderson8762]

Can't wait for more of these! I had a lesson today and while warming up I tried to remember what Beezie taught in this lesson and applied it to the best of my ability. It turned out to be an amazing lesson and I am so excited to keep practicing. I can't wait for more videos!

[@ivannatrevino1600]

Thank you so much for taking the time to film and posting this video. Beezie is an amazing rider and putting these videos out for free is a blessiing💘💘

[@khaosdaly566]

Beezie was my hero growing up. I watched her every year I could at the Syracuse Sporthorse Invitational, when it was still a show. It truly inspired me. Unfortunately I've not had many opportunities to connect to coaches and horses like these lucky young women, so I'll live vicariously through youtube until I have the opportunity (lack of pandemic) to get back out there and work for it! Stay safe all, and thank you for these videos.

[@maryanneking9855]

Thank you so much Beezie and John for posting such fantastic video lessons. No one could give better. I have al amyloidosis and am in the hospital. You do t know how much I would .like to practise this with my horse. If only I could ride one more time. Have had to re home my horses and dog. These lessons are almost the real ride for me. I can feel the motion of the horse when I watch. I am from Surrey, British Columbia. Keep up the good work! You both are fantastic!

[@jenniferhodell5829]

This is the next best thing to taking a lesson with Beezie. Loved it. Thank you so much!!!

[@joycee5493]

Good training, good horses, good riders. Such a pleasure to see.

[@EquuCyn_8]

Always a Great Smile Beezie. Thank you both for thinking to do this video. As a kid, I was on the rails amazed by the 'Red Rider' (RJ & IdleDice) and later following Beezie's beautiful lines. Now as a Therapeutic Riding Instructor videos (as such) help support words and make for happier horses & riders. See you at Devon. Be well, keep well everyone.

[@theresak42]

This is awesome, so helpful to so many equestrians who aren't able to ride right now. Thank you!!

[@carolineoja6243]

Thanks for sharing the video ! Hope you can do more while we are all waiting to get back to business ! These students are very fortunate to train with one of the best in the world 😊

[@BudgetEquestrian]

Thank you so much for sharing this with us! It's as if we just got a lesson with Beezie Madden! How awesome is this! I am fortunate enough that my horses are at home with me. So I am going to have to watch this a few times, and practice this with my own horse 😍😍😍 Thank you so much! Stay safe and healthy!

[@claramb2]

Great lesson! I will try it!

[@KayleighDovidio]

I have always wanted a lesson from Beezie she is amazing and so inspirational.

[@ES-ch6il]

Thank you so much for doing this! It gives us here in the north and in total isolation a break from boredom and a wonderful look into your world. I will play this many times.

[@catholicschoolrejects7854]

Can’t wait till I can ride again to work on some of theses things. Very enjoyable to watch while most of us are grounded

[@jodinehafner8293]

Thanks so much for posting this. Gives me something to work with while we are on lockdown here in New Zealand. Thanks also to the riders for putting on a very enjoyable show.

[@amber233ify]

This was really nice to watch and I look forward to using the serpentine exercise when we can ride again 😊

[@brittanyleigh1715]

Oh man!! This just made my day!! Thank you for posting this!

[@HighClassDiva91]

Thanks for sharing!!!

[@ole9186]

Thank you so much for doing this! What a great lesson. I can't get on right now, but this is almost as good! Greetings and appreciation from Canada.

[@theMpony]

So enjoyed this. Thank you for posting! Please share more lessons soon.

[@racheldcosta9128]

These are so helpful! Thank you for posting them :)

[@depressedequestrian3426]

Thank you for this, and for remaining safe during these trying times! We're some of the lucky ones who are still able to ride at home facilities & I so appreciate the inspiration!

[@wickedlovely1900]

Would love to come take lessons short term as I’m in Daytona area. Yet would be wonderful to experience. Cool video! Thanks

[@knhappyface]

Thank you for this resource!!!!

[@lilyelizabethstevenson8613]

This is great!! Would love a gymnastics lesson and jumping lesson if you can. Thanks JMS team and stay safe!

[@ClaireDoesTooMuch]

Thank you so much for posting this. Even staying in and quarantined, it's really helpful to me to still be absorbing these concepts. You guys rock!

[@hannahgunter3552]

This was AWESOME

[@jessicapersonal9678]

Save Beezie's voice and buy her a headset microphone. Hook up some speakers around the ring. You guys are awesome. Thank you so very much for sharing. God bless.

[@RachelHeywood]

Loved this! Great to hear her perspective and have a bit of insight.

[@joanenell8584]

Loved this lesson! Can I please ask for the spacing of the cavalettis? First the cavalettis that are done in a straight line, and also the spacing from each other for the cavalettis ridden on the serpentine? Would love to do this exercise at home!

[@JaydaRoss]

Loving these videos!!!

[@EE-zd6xh]

really enjoy this! thanks!

[@ingemertens8046]

Thanks for sharing! Love it!

[@avagrace2897]

Thank you for sharing this! What type of leg boots do you prefer to school the horses in?

[@ES-ch6il]

How long to you walk your horses in the walker we are looking into getting one that would be covered to relive people from hand walking up and down the barn aisle. We don’t have an indoor and in indiana it rains a lot.is a walker the best option?

[@ericaking9620]

Thank you so much for providing this video. Very informative! What half pad do you recommend using on your horses?

[@johnmaddensalesinc]

Erica King We use Ogilvy pads. Thanks for watching!

[@swedishfish4480]

Not sure if Becky is still down in FLA, but I would love to see Beezie give Becky a lesson.

[@johnmaddensalesinc]

swedish fish Becky is in Caz unfortunately.

[@dani-eh3tf]

At my barn, only leasers/owners are allowed, and personal training lessons/paying customers. I haven’t seen a lesson with more than 2 people, although people who aren’t supposed to be there still come 😔

[@rossolinger4477]

i'm in basic equitation but i'm saying i'm missing the lesson vibe a lot!

[@jessicaanne25]

You may have said it, but I missed it, how many feet are your line of 3 cavaletti set at?

[@johnmaddensalesinc]

jessicaanne25 Hi! We don’t mention the distances in this video, but it will be discussed in a video coming soon! 😊👍

[@jessicaanne25]

johnmaddensalesinc Thanks, I look forward to watching ☺️

[@ariatarras8597]

I would literally cut my arm off to get a lesson with Beezie 😍

[@faithfulbright3829]

You'd be showing western for the rest of your life.

[@joannabrites6288]

Watching these beautiful horses go by reminds me how lucky some people are. The only horses I got came off the track, no money for lessons, self taught through books and videos. These days I see horses entirely different. I don’t believe in jumping a horse over six foot fences humane, nor do I believe what they do in dressage any better and racing that’s an old barbaric sport that needs to end. Putting the horse’s life at stake for money is something I don’t believe in. If you truly love horses how can you risk them for money.

[@anastasiastyles3861]

Great video.But honestly i see money but not talent at all...But who am i to judge

[@johnmaddensalesinc]

Fortunately for all of us, there is a place in this sport for all riders, regardless of if they are beginners or grand prix riders. While we won't comment on the specific backgrounds or financial situation of each rider or training level of each horse in this video, we will say it serves us all to assume the best of others rather than to spread negativity.
