My friend lets me have a lesson on her mare - with Rich Hayward

Alice very kindly let me borrow Isla to have a dressage lesson with Rich, give it a watch to see Rich roast me…

Love watching Rich’s lessons, can we get him his own channel?? So much to learn while watching him. Thanks both for this. X

[@hannahshorty902]

Rich is the best instructor! Absolutely cracks me up but is also so knowledgeable ☺️

[@melaniejaynejones6436]

How funny 😅 Old school filming on phones, and you need to get yourself a sexy Pete 😂 Richard is so funny!!! She is a gorgeous pony. Hannah, you rode her well ❤

[@april5666]

I love Rich Hayward and could listen to him instruct all day. I love his acerbic intelligence ;)

[@ihay472]

"Don't call it it" 😂😂😂 Poor Rich.

[@user-fc6qs4gy5c]

Don’t normally comment on KZbin videos, but I really enjoyed this video. It was so educational and a joy to watch. Well done Han!!

[@dicksaucer3231]

You know Rich is a good dressage instructor because of the head tilt lol

[@sallyannefrancis8647]

Rich Is a master of seeing whats going wrong !! Amazing transformation!! This pony was leaning alot !!! Well Done Han !! Rich got interested when he got out of his seat !!! It Just shows you good quality lessons are essential !

[@laurenpelling4079]

Looking fab! Rich I absolutely adore 😂❤

[@jenniferquinn5010]

I love the fact that Rich is so tall he can ride whilst walking beside the horse. The transformation from the warm up trot to the trot at the end was really significant. Excellent teaching on how to get a horse to work through its back into the bit. Thank you for sharing this valuable information as it is the foundation that can be a struggle for all new riders and Green horses.

Love this so much, I'm about the level of rider you are and it's lovely to see people like me

[@kippen64]

Good morning from Australia. More Rich content!!!🎉

[@RebekahJones1976]

Rich does make me giggle... he does not give a flying f what he says lol !!! Love that pony though she's so honest and cute xxx

[@anniecampbell8554]

Thanks so much, Han. It was very interesting to hear Rich’s guidance to you both - plenty of actionable insights for me, certainly.

[@ShaneGilbert-cx4th]

😄😄😄 I love it when you thort you where in an exam ,THIS just SO fun .😄 I love the way rich WAS exsplaning thing's , Take CARE ALL, AND keep up the good work. 😊😊😊👍👍👍💟 And a BIG thank you to rich .👍👍

[@magicaltrails]

Good lesson! CUTE pony, and a good size for you! BEND that outside elbow--clamp it to your side and don't move it. That will help you not let go outside. Tip from someone who used to have that problem. ;-)

[@stitch53713]

Learning to get your horse on the bit is hard...but once you have it, you'll always have it.

[@hannesofie6071]

Ayla suited you perfectly Hannah! Once you've "opened her up", she will be fantastic!!! Connemaras may be stocky, but they are great athlets! Loved this video!!! ❤❤ Rich will never be "nice"...... But he sure is a good instructor!! And I think he was pleased with you and "It"!! ❤❤

[@debrap.59]

Please post a follow up lesson with Rich.

[@cheekianne1595]

Passive aggressive Han saying good girl every time Rich says he or it 😂😂😂 good job Han xxx

[@Morganpies]

The disgust of rich having to correct himself to say she after saying it 😂😂😂😂

[@valeriefergusson269]

Very nice could see the emprovement in her flow Rich is so good leading her so you got the feel well done xx

[@4_ponies_and_pixie]

I really enjoyed watching your lesson. Rich was so funny with his influencer advice 😂. 💜

[@user-gx2xd9nm5x]

now you need to ride riches 18.0hh horse 🤣🤣🤣

[@spotteddreams7935]

Brilliant lesson Han. Took me back to the early days with my boy.

[@jo7409..]

Love this - great learning x

[@jessicahigdon3962]

Great video Han. Great lesson.

[@juliettefranks7168]

I really enjoyed this! Very helpful

[@pixie706]

Well done Han . that was hard work but worthwhile. Blunt spurs are a great help too if you are used to them.

[@louiseholt3348]

So informative 😊

[@Ridingforwardwithmaria]

Oh my word I just had a thought 🤔you having a Rich lesson on whinny 👏🏻

[@Ridingforwardwithmaria]

[@GracieMitchell-bv8dj]

Amazing han

[@thebravingitequestrian]

[@Myhorseydiarys]

Can’t wait ❤

[@Lovehorses12]

I love you!❤

[@tonysansom]

Well done Hannah!

[@user-bs1ux4mu5c]

I thought it was megs pony at first

[@karenchappell1150]

I don’t normally comment but I love watching Rich giving lessons. I love that he calls the ponies/horses ‘it’ 😂. He is a great instructor as he honest and calls it as he sees it, which means you will learn quicker.

[@rachelalberico7869]

Ugh, I hate it. Makes me feel like he sees them as tools/objects rather than animals with individual personalities. I like everything else about him though!

[@Me_Fig_Daisy_Lottie]

Cute!!FIRST!!

First ❤

[@infernowarrior9884]

The Rich lessons are great. Han and the Connemara mare are both improving so quickly in no time. Han mentioned before she is looking for a second horse or large pony. Maybe Rich could help her find one or preview what she finds before investing.
