[@DonnaS-q9s]

I wish all horse trainers were like Ryan

[@Lextacy06]

This woman is a very knowledgeable horsewoman, but the most important thing is that she's not opposed to gaining more knowledge and seeking help. No matter you're level, there's always more to learn. Loved watching this video.

[@judyboyle9232]

And what a nice mare, she's smart!

[@PhilipCheadle]

Agree, she has much really deep understanding and also is asking for more help. The best student one can ever ask for. And her and her horse will go to new levels because of Ryan’s expertise here. He’s the best at breaking down and isolating the areas of need.

[@Foxiepawstotti]

@judyboyle9232 I just said that, she's lovely and tries, you can see the intelligence and how she looks at her owner, to see if she's doing it right. Lovely, pretty mare. I think the knowledge that there is always more to learn is what seperates a good horse person from a bad one.

[@KaivalaJenva]

Another ckear case of horse getting lucky with an owner who clearly saw problems and rather than brute force through them she took it back to basics and sounded like she just needed some specifics thank you for helping the owner and her horse

[@johankannemeyer7284]

Nice to see that a obviously knowledgeable owner spots the shortcomings in the mares training and are not afraid of asking for assistance from outside. Well done and very informative

Amazing how much the horse can accomplish when the trainer AND handler are confident.

This was probably the most beautiful dance class and final performance that I have ever witnessed. The calm of such mighty power is a magical moment of peace. These two humans found a way to bridge the gap of understanding and respect with the horse who was just waiting to be seen and heard and fully safe. Beautiful.

[@donnac.1609]

Really nice, mare! Glad she ended up with this owner! Being able to feel and read what is going on with this mare was so good....Ryan is helping get issues pinpointed. Ryan is adding techniques to help get this mare solid.. very savvy owner willing to learn....good horse handlers and riders never quit learning. All worth ehile!

What a gorgeous mare! I think she's only going to improve from here. Her owner is very in tune with her.

Lovely to see open minded, caring owners who understand and want to help their horses. I really like this mare, she's intelligent and tries and with some consistency, she looks like she will be super! She's well made and really pretty too!

[@jdshetler0548]

THIS people is what a COLLABORATION between trainer, owner, and horse. This is what a TRAINER should be doing but most can’t bc they don’t see the big picture with owners personality and engagement with their horse as well as the horses personality so the trainer should be teaching and educating logically as he is doing a superb user friendly understanding explanation. Love this.

[@thefishyhorseman]

Man, it's not often I see a video where I REALLY like the horse, but this mare is close to my ideal (minus the grey and the downhill build). She's emotionally sensitive, but such a thinker and sensible once she understands. I really like her handler as well. Great timing and instincts, and totally ready to soak up anything new she can learn.

Both the mare and owner are great students! They both made nice progress. I think both are going to make great improvements on connection based on Ryan’s suggestions. She’s a very nice horse and worth the effort. I would love to see an update on their progress.

[@JeremyCoppin]

That 4 to 5 second allowance to allow the horse to process is something I've just recently learned. It is so important in ground work. We tend to forget in our fast paced Internet world that horses work at a different level mentally. If you don't give the horse that time to process, from my limited observations, they default to the fight/flight setting. Then you run the risk of reinforcing the very behaviour you're trying to get rid of. Great videos. Thanks.

[@april5666]

I think this my favorite video of yours to date (I'm sure there are many like it on your Patreon account, but as I don't have a horse anymore and am too old and infirm to ride now, I just like to watch what people are doing with horses these days.) Anyway, this just made what you're pointing out really clear and it was reinforced by seeing how well your client got it and was able to implement your exercises. I really appreciate you sharing your expertise, so much of it free, that really helps people communicate so much better with their horses and help them both get to a better place kindly and with respect. I wish things like this had of been available 30 years ago, as we had some problems with horses that would have benefitted so much from these types of exercises.

[@carolegrant1201]

I agree! I’m 70 and it’s been almost 10 years since I lost my last horse. I got my first one when I was 12. I wish I had all this knowledge available to me years ago. It would have made such a big difference back then. Back then all we had were some vhs videos and magazines!!

[@boatman222345]

Don't I wish these videos were around five decades ago when I was into horses! Very impressive, very!

Thanks Ryan!! There is always more to learn. My boy is also very sensitive and this video showed me a clear gap for us to focus on together. I took him out today and had a better response with him in 20 mins than I have in the last 10 years. You're a wonderful teacher and horseman. I always thought it was just his personality - turns out it's energy and him not keying in to my intention. I slowed down and helped him understand that the stimulus doesn't control our connection.

[@ddunning6207]

So glad this horse got a horseman for an owner. Shes already been misunderstood and if thats continued she would be a nightmare. If she get her connection with this mare she will be great!

[@redmals1]

This video is packed full of pertinent information for me personally. I cannot begin to tell you how much I have learned by watching your videos. I have found your videos to be highly educational and instructive. I love that you use horses with issues to show how to work with them rather than showing us a well trained horse. I was really disappointed when you were in my area and I was sick and couldn't go.

[@shepherds.pie.youtube]

Giving them time to figure out the puzzle is so awesome. Speed comes with understanding. No one can solve a maths puzzle first time in record time. I love that you give them time. And even more, perhaps, I love that you talk about getting to their brain! Training is teaching. What good does it do if we can PHYSICALLY make them do it, if five years down the track we're STILL physically making them do it because they don't understand a cue...? I love it, thank you for making these videos!

[@NadyaPena-01]

I love that you prioritize the horse feeling good in the work. They have to learn to do the exercises coordinated, soft, and relaxed in order for them to get the benefit. I struggle a little bit with that because sometimes we can't get the softness and I don't continue the exercise. I need to keep it going until I see a change (however small it may be). Thank you!

[@Ozarksiren]

Beautiful horse! Very confident owner. Helpful!

The owner is eager to learn and in tuned with her more which is great.

I can’t tell you how helpful this video is and the timing couldn’t be better! I’ve been at a standstill and just felt so stuck with my gelding (Bane) who is very reactive just like this mare. He was supposed to be “a beginner horse” and couldn’t be further from the truth. I’m so excited to try these techniques! Thank you!! 🙌🏻

[@art-is-lazy4509]

Definitely one for the experienced horse person, hope she can get sorted and has a goodlife. Always feel sorry tor the greys, with their cancer risk. Had to deal with the consequence of that with our Hereford herd till we could breed that out over 20 years. That woman is super horse handy.

I love Ryan’s videos and knowledge. We adopted a 17.2 hand Belgian with an abusive background. She was very much like this one with the explosiveness. I’m a 5’ 1/2” and 58 year old female and I’ve done a lot of things like this. She calms down with me and I can keep her calm with just a flat halter. I will be doing this with her. It’s so much fun to speak the horse’s language.

[@audreygregis8721]

[@patriciamountin9564]

Right off the bat when she started riding her to the right, her left hip looked like she was a tiny bit lame when she stepped out. I'm certainly no expert but that caught my eye. She's a lovely mare and with 2 people who obviously know horses, you'll figure it out and get her on a better path.

[@terrifrye2803]

[@dianahoneycutt1869]

As always he is great at exsplaining the why. Super stoked to see others join us to learn a better way of training.

[@LegendHold1]

Watchin that lovely mare move, I'd say she has something off with that left rear leg. She doesn't lift her hoof at the hock the same as the right rear and she's not bending her stifle when she moves. Watching her stand while her owner is mounted, she's got her front feet wide to take weight off her rear. I think I'd have her left rear stifle x-rayed to see if there is a physical problem or a bone chip in there. Great work trying to relax this lovely girl. I just think there is something physical that is prompting some of the nervous and explosive behavior still. Doing all the right things, but I think I'd dig deeper and make sure this isn't a physical problem.

[@nholbrook1682]

I totally agree- and that head position screams aversion to discomfort.

[@joycee5493]

Wow. My big, red OTTB mare that ran until she was eight and a half was just like this. She was kind but super sensitive, high flight and very fearful. Those circles and bending he suggested became a place of comfort for her when I needed to get her attention under saddle. I could then get soft and move on with the ride. Really this mare is just like my mare was. Keep at it… it will take time but you’ll get there. Use big release of pressure rewards. I can do all kind of things with her now that use to terrify her. Good luck!

[@jett888]

notice this mare jumps just when Ryan moves his hands up. Her reactions to his hands makes me think she's been hit a lot.

[@JuanitaThompson-cm5tq]

I was going to say the same thing.

[@janiene-gq4mg]

I found this particular video very helpful, thank you. ❤️ Especially looking for the holes in my training especially knowing whats happening in her mind mentally and emotionally because she can react similar esp when you were doing the side pass. The rider said her mare is stiff in her ribs mine can be the same especially on the left rein. So this is one of my take aways. More bending, as you said the quality of the bend. My mare is in no way near dynamite, but sensitive and definitely more reactive in spring, less attentive, and can get confused and anxious with pressure more running. I'm lucky I've built up a good mental connection overall and I've taught her to think for herself when scared of something. Both on the ground and under saddle. She will now usually go up and discover it with the cue "touch it" and has done this off her own back at times so she usually looks to me for safety. But my take away is help her to find that relaxation quicker in reactive times. She understands the bending and relaxation and softness as we do this work all the time, but it goes out the window in times of stress, and takes a little longer to recover. I like the comment the rider made about asking for obedience rather than allowing the horse to connect. I do this at times, so great to be able to acknowledge my short comings and work on myself in order to help my horse. Thank you.
