The Madden Method - Mounting and Dismounting

[@joycee5493]

Yes, horses should stand while you mount and after you’re on. Thank you Beezie. This is actually such an easy thing to teach a horse it just takes consistency. It’s also nice to see someone teaching a proper dismount. I see a lot of people taking the right foot out of the stirrup but leaving the left one in and dismounting with the left foot in the stirrup. That is so dangerous.

I feel like I just got a private lesson with Beezie Madden 😍😍😊🤗

Marco. Ciao. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Aww, Derry Lou! He looks so sweet! No one prepared me for how difficult a proper dismount is- I had always kept the left foot in the stirrup... But that is dangerous for obvious reasons, haha. It took me 5 lessons to do it cleanly, I kept catching my leg on the cantle- I am getting better, though! Practice practice practice... Although riders like Beezie make it look SO easy, haha! I have never mounted with a leg up before, she makes that look so easy as well! I love watching experts do things like that- you can almost always learn to do it better, even if you think you have it down...

[@louisemeadow2905]

Super. Really enjoyed it

[@Robin-sb7vu]

Thank you Beezie for instruction. When I dismount I do keep my left leg and the stirrup and then release once my right leg is over.... don't think I was doing that right. lol. Thank you.

great vid! ty Beezie! only thing i wouldnt do, as a trainer teaching others, is swing ur reins up over the horses head. its fine for ur own, personal horse who's been desensitized but for teaching a student, not a good idea :) im sure u knew that. anyways, ty for being their for us riders during this stupid pandemic and for all the inspiration over the yrs.

I would love to see a video about how to safely tighten a girth that is a monoflap!

[@christinamuller7861]

Would love to see how you trim the mane of your horses 👍

[@Thatsonehorsegirl]

How many horses does breeze own?

[@graceyoung3760]

I believe that Bz doesn’t technically own most of the horses, there is someone else that owns the horse she rides the horse for them. This is only what I think I could be wrong

[@graceyoung3760]

Because the horse she was using in this video is not owned by her it is own by Abigail Wexner

[@johnmaddensalesinc]

The majority of the horses here are owned by other people. We own a few young horses and retirees.

[@KayleighDovidio]

I love Beezie she is amazing and such an inspiration 😁. It would mean a lot if you checked out one of my last edits that I made of her I very much enjoy it.

[@chewar7537]

So much different than western. I could never ride english, that was just weird.....the leg up. I am short, so my tall horse is harder to mount, but I just get my foot in the stirrup, and hop. hahahaha. Easy!

[@hypersaiyan7102]

Is he a mustang or a thoroughbred?

[@johnmaddensalesinc]

Hi, he's a warmblood.

[@lancecristiano6751]

I would not use a step ladder... horse hoof/leg could get caught Mounting block or straw bale

[@alicecohen4726]

Mounting block? Less strain on the back! Both human assistant and equine. Enjoy.
