Patrick Kaye thank you so much for your great videos! I find them very useful. Today I rode my Arabian mare for the first time in 5 months. She is very sensitive and energetic. She was very touchy and was about to bolt. Then I remembered your advice: just ask them. So I asked her to relax by imagining her being relaxed and that was just what she did! It was awesome. I am so glad with your help. Thank you again!!

Suzan de Boer Sap I love that! I am very timidly getting my 6 yr old gelding ready to ride. He’s a handful. I was on him and twice he did what I was thinking without aids! That’s really a revelation to me, how sensitive they are. I’m going to try to start with a mental image first before even verbal and physical aids.

Patrick Kaye, you are amazing!

[@therustycrossbow]

Such an inspiring video. You make a great point with talking to horses instead of kicking.

[@derekedwards5561]

Patrick, you are truly an awesome instructor! I learned a lot out of this video.

[@kimberlywood5418]

This is awesome. This is how I have been instinctively wprking with mine. I get chastised a lot for it, but it seems to be working.....im passing this on.

[@chloevalentine8552]

Amazing can teach you so much, he has a point about talking to cats and dogs but not horses. I like how when the horse canters off with him he just stays calm and tells him to stop and eventually when it does stop not battering it like i have seen many people do. Very well done!!!

[@Namidadee]

absolutely amazing! Really inspiring, you're my new role model!!

[@leealexander3507]

I chose my horse by the look in his eyes. A very good horse indeed.

[@dragonmaid1360]

this man is so compassionate and loving . Horses are beautiful animals why wouldn't you want them to work with you. I never understood why people 'broke them'when I was a kid. I always got on with my horses well. Never had a problem. Why has this taken us so long.

[@ronedelgaleone6706]

This is so interesting and great to watch!!!

[@BlueRidgeMtns100]

Jaysus! It took my brilliant and kind Arabian almost a year to teach me what you have condensed into just a few minutes. Where have you been all my life!?

[@elliedean7361]

Wow. Now i know a thing or two. Oh, and I talk to horses like they're people. brilliant creatures.

[@tinkamyra]

It's so sweet my horse knows words too.

[@PercheronAppLVR]

Love to watch this video. Using a verbal cue and nothing more than weight aids ... and the occasional mild leg aid - I wish more horse ppl had this mentality ..and patience! Are you ever going to do any more videos ?

[@WillReynolds88]

[@keithsmith8250]

great psychology ...

Hi, very inspiring video! Do you mind giving some tips on how to teach the horses through words? Thank you!

[@leealexander3507]

Karen Gonzalez-Videla If we mean what we are saying our body language will reflect our words and, aside from a few words, is what the horse understands. Also you can say the words while showing the horse what you want. He will learn to associate the word with the action as long as your body reflects your word. An example of your body language not reflecting your words would be, you ask the horse to do something you are afraid to do so your body language will show fear rather than desire.

[@kgv.photos]

thank you!

[@leealexander3507]

Karen Gonzalez-Videla Good luck in training your horse. They are smart so it's not difficult.

[@patrickpatrickkaye.horseta2418]

Please see my video on utube

[@victoriarose352]

[@britters220]

The horse was too excited and happy to jump so it wanted to celebrate, lolol!

[@MrLaaziZ]

[@binmehmood3042]

Patrick are you alive..? Sorry for the blunt question but last comment on the video is 2 year old

[@usmansm805]

Patrick need more of your tutorials, where are you? we all hope your doing good.

[@crazycool1128]

Many things also apply to leadership

[@RebelAngelkiller62]

The guy said he wanted to rid horses of pain inflicting devices but used a bit?

[@angelatonn7293]

If properly sized and chosen, horse bits are not painful

[@sonseere10]

Zip the mouth when you are communicating with a horse. Most horse communication is through body language. Use your body, not your mouth.

[@treelore5100]

You should watch more of his video's he feels horses do best with lots of verbal communication.

[@sonseere10]

The best horsemen do not talk around horses.

[@treelore5100]

You are correct that many do not and are very good, they also do use a lot of leg. However maybe there is also the way of words. It's another area to explore.

[@treelore5100]

Clinton Anderson uses spurs for an example.

[@sonseere10]

Think of it this way.............Horses interacting with other horses is all about pressure and release of pressure. As humans interacting with horses, we mimic the horses.............pressure and release. In the saddle, body cues to the horse are pressure. It may be subtle, but is still pressure. When the horse does as we ask, we release the pressure with proper timing, rhythm, and feel. The horse learns on the release of pressure. If you add a lot of voice, to the point of nagging, the horse will tune it out and will no longer view you as a leader. The voice is one added layer of pressure that the horse does not need to understand your wishes. Less is more. The goal is to do less to get the goal accomplished. You should get to the point in riding or working a horse on the ground to where people would ask: 'how did he get the horse to do that?'

[@tinkamyra]

Opps woe doesnt work to well :-(

[@light9623]

This guy has worked this horse before

[@marydiscuillo142]

he seems like a kind gentle man but i think i will stick to parilli or anderson or cox. no t w words with touch and pressure and release of it. sorry.

[@sidilicious11]

mary discuillo I like to take the bits I like from all great trainers.

[@kevinpinter8290]

Do that without a lead on the horse.

[@danielthomas3333]

He misses the point. Although it’s remarkable what he can do with voice commands
