The 3 Tools of The Natural Horseman

[@victorialowry638]

I just found your training program yesterday. Amazingly calm. Love it.

I watch your videos and think I get something out off it, then I come back and rewatch them after some time has passed and I find there is always nuances that I totally missed out on the first watch through. I really appreciate your videos.

I'm glad you're putting in the effort. If there are ways that I could better communicate those nuances, feel free to let me know, it will help me to become a better teacher.

Tomorrow I'm going to see how well I measure up to this demo. I love your videos.

[@_thenaturalhorseman]

You can do it!

That was lovely to watch, and beautiful music too. So help me out. What am I looking at to know she was tight around the neck, or ribs, or haunches? Because to my uneducated eye, she seemed relaxed. I’m writing from the UK where seeing hosses like coiled springs seems to be normal. So how can I tell tightness? TYIA

Hi, Steve, I found your videos on KZbin after searching for answers to help with my horse. I was impressed with your approach and lightness in your training. Do you do instruction with someone from other states? I am in Florida. BTW, the riding weather is much better here, LOL. Your methods have truly helped me with my horse. Thank you for such great videos.

[@_thenaturalhorseman]

Absolutely, I'd be happy to set something up with you.

[@tonyadouglas1475]

Just saw your reply, Steve. How can we set something up? I'll be happy to message my contact info. Thank you again for replying.

[@_thenaturalhorseman]

@@tonyadouglas1475 Yes that would be perfect. You can get my business email from my page under the "about" tab. Or you could also message me through my facebook page @thenaturalhorseman. I'm looking forward to talking with you and hearing about your horses!

[@tonyadouglas1475]

@The Natural Horseman Thank you for replying, Steve. I'll message you through one of those menans. I look forward to speaking with you as well.

[@tonyadouglas1475]

Good morning, Steve. I wanted to message you that I called and left a VM yesterday, the 8th. I look forward to speaking about my horse.

Steve do you lunge a young a horse, prior to doing your ground work ? I really enjoy watching your videos, I have a 5 year old , and do to the weather from time to time I don’t get to work with him , and when the horse arena opens when it warmer I do take him for exercise and training , but when I turn him loose he goes nuts buck rears gallops for a good 5-10 minutes is that normal ? Or is there something I can do to stop that behaviour. Looking forward to hearing from you as I respect your knowledge and ability thank you

[@_thenaturalhorseman]

Great questions Monique, I do have a very specific way of lunging horses as a warm up, and I approach it thoughtfully, in a way that builds their mental, emotional and physical collection at the same time. This really helps get them warmed up and in the right frame of mind quickly without the antics and it's enjoyable for them as well. I think this would make a great video topic, I'll get on it. As for turning a horse out after a session, there are things you can do as well to prevent the running away from you, again, sounds like a video that needs to be made, as it's more information than can be written in a paragraph :)

Good information most people don't understand how important it is to balance our body in relationship with our horses body meaning your core body is behind the horse when asking for forward movement and our core body infront of our horse when asking to slow down or stop. Try it and be amazed! Don't forget that we are managing our horses feet and we must manage our own feet first. Minimize our foot movement and be more clear. Less confusion.
