Almost impossible to watch one of your videos without learning something useful ... Thank you very much for sharing your wisdom.

[@amberboston3154]

Proving a horse can be soft, balanced and compliant without excessive force. This trainer can and WILL find ways around problems without invasive pushing, as many horseman do.

[@michellesonego7682]

You are a legend....oh did i forget to add..Australian legend...haha You just explain it so simply, and straight to the point....love your work Warwick

[@bethb7455]

I think a lot of people would agree that you are the Greatest of all the great horsemen!! I have nothing but great things to say about you and you have my respect and support!! Cheers 🍻

[@WarwickSchiller]

Thank you

[@aliequestrian1301]

You should also watch Rick Gore Horsemanship ! He is also an amazing person to watch! His KZbin channel is Think Like A Horse

[@lucasa1849]

@@aliequestrian1301 I like Rick alot. He's a great horseman. But unlike warwick he doesn't challenge his own beliefs. He doesn't really open his mind to different ways of doing things. And he always involves politics in his videos. His crirical eye videos have really taught me alot though.

[@missfay1723]

This was amazing video! Absolutely loving it. I love the mindset of not forcing the horse to do anything, but letting the horse make the decision between right and easy/wrong and hard. They usually, or at least eventually, make the good choice!

[@dirtpatcheaven]

Wish I could give it two thumbs up!

[@This1LifeWeLive]

Hey, you're on my video feed, lol! Are you subbed to his program? I loooove it, so good for both my kids!

Great video, Warwick - simple and smart as always!

[@terryglover6361]

Very smart! Thanks!

[@tenapus]

I love the view of the beautiful hills behind!! And all the good thoughts and advise from WS, off course

[@heathernield7483]

Love the internal dialog of the horse! Great video with humor and education 🤠

[@khathammond7072]

Great illustration, and also of note, is the different way you present this method nowadays Warwick. Loving it. Thank you!!!

[@mr.miaumiau2892]

Magnìfico ! , Gran video, muy buena informaciòn , gracias amigo Warwick !!!-Magnìficent ! A great video , very good information, thanks my friend Warwick!!!

[@persephonemaeve2704]

Brilliant example 👍🏻👍🏻

[@britb9447]

Great explanation as always!! Destnation addition

[@judygallagher1277]

I am training a my 7 yr filly that I rescued when she was 5 months. My vet requested that I wait until she was 5yrs old since she was so stunted. My mom got sick and passed away in March so I finally able to spend the time with her to get her trained properly. I have watch several of your videos and you have made me change my thinking and learning to read her. Just wanted to say thanks !! and to let you know how much I have enjoyed all of them.

[@alysonemery5287]

A 7 year old horse is not a filly anymore. It's a mare.

[@pennywebb867]

I love your videos, always learn something useful! Thank you for sharing. I watch a lot of horsey videos but your empathy with horses appeals to me. My other favorite person to watch, for different reasons, is Elisa Wallace. Which brings me to a question. Have you ever adopted/rescued (or thought about adopting/rescuing) a mustang and training them for resale? I would love to see your journey through that process.

[@Kelly_Ben]

Great video as always. I was SO excited to walk into equine affaire this weekend and find you doing a clinic! Your videos have changed the way I train, so seeing you in person was better than seeing a movie star!!

[@WarwickSchiller]

Ha, thanks Kelly, I hope you enjoyed the demos there.

[@av7014]

Fantastic! 👌

[@caiquetv4710]

This makes so much sense! I got on my young mare today for the 3rd time. I usually have someone lead me around the school but today I was on my own and she wouldn't go forwards....because she was where she wanted to be! So we just stopped there for a while and then I got off. I will try this next time 😊

[@mustangmomma9582]

Really love this! Im having issues myself, green mustang. Im definitely putting this on my homework list!

[@mustangmomma9582]

He's a great pony, just waiting for mom to catch up 😁

[@sidilicious11]

Very inter and cool idea! It didn’t take long did it.I wish I had a big arena like that!.We do have a 60’ round pen, I wonder if I can use this principle in that? I’ll try.

[@This1LifeWeLive]

Lol, the first person was exactly like me first ride in the round pen on my young mare! Perfect video for me!

[@This1LifeWeLive]

Yup, good timing as I was trying to plan what my saddle training would be next. Yea, excellent quick video!

[@AndersonCattleCo]

I was the same as you, a few years ago I started a colt that couldn't walk out at all and now we pony them all over the farm first and they will line out pretty good.

[@NewEarthWellness]

Wow that's interesting.

[@anne-marie3908]

Great video! Ido this with a bit of an older horse who doesn't want to go to spooky corners. Do you do this in one ride and continue training 'normally' or do you have to continue this for a few days until they have gone to all the in my case 'spooky' corners?

[@sarahwagland1559]

Whenever I'm having problems I always go to Warwick and come away with lots of food for thought.

[@Minxie5]

I found this video very interesting. I am in the process of starting a QH and I thought moving her out was going to be a problem but I just used the little things to my advantage. (would start in middle of round yard as she likes to go to the gate) so getting her to move at first wasn't too hard. Are you saying in this video young horses are balanced? I think you have to be a pretty good rider to start a horse under saddle as you need to be able to feel what is going on with their feet. I try to make the starting process as easy as possible and do believe a good rider can make all the difference to a young horse

[@lucasa1849]

Hi Warwick, where did you get that bosal?

[@rushellealexandra5243]

Need to have my 10 yr old one eyed pony ready for fair by July 31st. I rode him today but had to do tight circle and back him , he doesn't neck rein and tried plow reining and he doesn't really want to bend his nose to turn him just wants to shake his head and stomp at flies , I spent 2 weeks desensitizing him and getting him good with me sitting on him but now I can't get him to go forward, I want to show walk trot

[@donnireddington7613]

What if they zig and zag in a round pen? I just started riding my 2.5 year old mustang who I started ground driving first but he does the same thing this horse does in the beginning or he’ll back his butt up to the fence and stand there.

[@jessica-walt]

What if you’re riding outside the arena for the first time?

[@WarwickSchiller]

You would do exactly as I did here. You may notice the only fence she used was the one towards the barn, so I could have been in 100 acres and it would have gone the same.

[@gregorymarionsmith7792]

My horse always does this when we ride back home. She’ll try to take off. Anything I can do about this?

[@WarwickSchiller]

yes, Id do the 50' trail ride.

[@barbaramara1740]

@@WarwickSchiller hello! love your videos!!! could you please explain what a 50‘ trail ride is? (i’m austrian 😊) i‘m having the same problem…

[@WarwickSchiller]

@@barbaramara1740 just look up my video called the 50' trail ride

[@myfencingcenter6265]

why does she carry a crop?

[@ss-cj5in]

If the problem is they're leaving a place of comfort would that not still be the problem even if you were leading and not riding

[@WarwickSchiller]

No because all the groundwork has made YOU a place of comfort

[@ss-cj5in]

@@WarwickSchiller thank you for your reply. Even though my mind is not totally convinced that's the reason why. I appreciate you taking the time sir. I have only come across your channel last couple of weeks and have watched many of your videos since. I have done horsemanship in the past, for me Mark Rashid's books were great and his approach I thought was one I could connect to. Prior to that I had done parelli and studied many others. Then one day I met the greatest horseman I have ever known who changed everything for me..The reason I have explained myself is I'm genuinely curious for answers.

[@ss-cj5in]

And I think your videos are prettty great with explanations all levels can appreciate

[@slalonde09]

what do you do if your horse does not stand still?

[@WarwickSchiller]

Going back in your training. If your horse can’t stand still at this point you’ve missed some things
