Thank you for demonstrating on an unfinished horse. So many people show how to do things on a fully trained horse and it looks so different and is not as helpful.
Now I know why I always get the rented stock horse. Horsemanship is more complicated than I ever realized. Thanks for the lesson……guess I gotta earn my spurs.
You make it look so easy! Had my 2nd riding lesson today and am struggling to get the horse to keep moving forward😂. Squeezing w/my legs and smooching often doesn’t work and my teacher has to get the horse to go about 70% of the time! But I was able to do a few turns that felt effortless. But not every time….
Very helpful :) Would love it if you could also do a video on using the reins correctly. I recently changed styles from eastern to Western gaited, and seem to not be able to stop pulling back on the reins.
I appreciate your leg cues. I dont understand a tie down it looks really uncomfortable and painful. I ride with no bits and so do my friends. Our horses have no trouble and look very natural. Thanks
My TWH (technically not mine, I just exercise him), he doesn't even know what these leg cues mean. I have been teaching him from the ground, but as soon as were riding, he doesn't seem move off my leg at all. So if I'm trotting, what do I do? Do I just kick him until he moves over?
You steer with the opposite leg so use the leg on the side that your turning away from, hooking the leg on that side when turning especially sharp and fast turns helps you keep your balance and stay on the horse . You can steer your horse completely with your legs and this allows you to do things like drop the reins and use a bow to throw arrows.
It depends on whether you want him to turn by moving the front or hind legs. Pressure further forward with right leg moves the shoulders left. Away from the pressure. Horse turns left. Right leg pressure a little farther back tells the horse to move the right hips to the left. Away from the pressure. Horse turns right. If the horse's hips go left, the horse turns right. Shoulders go left, the horse turns left. So, you can use your right leg to tell him to go right or left depending on if your pressure is closer to the shoulder or the hip. Same with your left leg. Or leg pressure in the center to move the whole horse sideways without turning his body. Plus move your opposite leg away from whatever part of the horse you want to go that way. Move your left leg out away from the horse if your right leg is putting pressure toward the horse. Your horse will move parts of his body toward the least amount of pressure. I hope I said all that right. And I hope it helps. 💖
Having hard time getting my 10 yr old hackney mix 14 hh small horse/pony to walk undersaddle, I spent 2 weeks desensitizing as he was jumpy and spooky, now he isnt phazed , but now he's now dull to rein and leg cues. Can get him to back up then take two or three steps then he refuses to move shakes his head and stomps his feet and won't bend his nose to my hip when I try to get him to turn or move.
When I apply pressure to one side, my horse would kick that side. What exercises should I do to help my horse from feeling stressed off of pressure and buck?
I'm no expert about it but in another video the teacher said if your horse does that he might think you're using a little too much pressure. The guy said it's the horse's way of saying that the cue is a little too "loud" for his liking. Maybe try "whispering" with your cues and see if your horse protests less.
My horse use to know leg aids like this(not as nice but the idea of it) but has grown very dead to the leg and I can’t seam to put enough leg on her to be effective. She is also very dead to leg with transitions but no half as bad. What can I do to help her and to help me understand what she needs. Her hips tilt to the inside all the time when riding and I have to beg her to stay on the rail.
I can't help but think about how amazing the horse lords of the eurasian steppe must have been. They could ride at full gallop for three days straight without stopping and so that they didn't need to stop to eat or drink they had a sharp wooden straw they would insert in the horses neck so that they could drink its blood for nourishment. They were quite literally one with their horse same as if they were both one creature. They depended on their horsemanship skills to carry them through battle and few could face them and live .
Fabulous tuition but where the hell did you have your microphone ? The background noise was very irritating and distracting and spoilt your great video.

Thats my Awesome dad!
He is awesome and I'm certain you are proud to call him your dad.
That's neat
Always do what your father says and you'll be just fine 🙂

I wish you lived near to me to be my teacher. I’ve had about 6 lessons and they all expect you to know straight away. Great video, thank you

What an amazing, helpful video. I love how he used a younger horse to show us how to correct things
Great explanation and demonstration.
I love how he showed the horse that the gate wasn't scary and then petted him. I really liked all the leg cue instructions, too. 👍
This video was very helpful!!! His demonstration and explanations were very straightforward and easy to understand!!! Wonderful job!!! ☺️👏🏻👍👌
This makes so much more sense
very nice instruction. easy to grasp the way you explain it
Very well explained TKS
Excellent explanation thank you for sharing
This was really helpful thank you!

You explained it very well thank you for this video !
thats an excellent presentation. Thanks you

Thanks
make a video....
thank you
Very Well Explained. TY
Which leg cues would you use when doing barrels?
I like those leg wraps. What kind are they?
great video! thank you for explaining the positions up close. super helpful!
Great explanation.!!!
Best explanation! Only thing now is to get a horse 😂
Great explanation! Thanks!
Are those socks on the horse? Looks pretty.

Great video. I always confused if you want to turn right, should I use my inside leg (right) ?
You steer with the opposite leg so use the leg on the side that your turning away from, hooking the leg on that side when turning especially sharp and fast turns helps you keep your balance and stay on the horse . You can steer your horse completely with your legs and this allows you to do things like drop the reins and use a bow to throw arrows.
It depends on whether you want him to turn by moving the front or hind legs.
Pressure further forward with right leg moves the shoulders left. Away from the pressure. Horse turns left.
Right leg pressure a little farther back tells the horse to move the right hips to the left. Away from the pressure. Horse turns right.
If the horse's hips go left, the horse turns right. Shoulders go left, the horse turns left.
So, you can use your right leg to tell him to go right or left depending on if your pressure is closer to the shoulder or the hip. Same with your left leg.
Or leg pressure in the center to move the whole horse sideways without turning his body.
Plus move your opposite leg away from whatever part of the horse you want to go that way. Move your left leg out away from the horse if your right leg is putting pressure toward the horse. Your horse will move parts of his body toward the least amount of pressure.

I need to get him walking and jogging by fair , which July 31st and he's my fair project.
Great video ,I just don't understand using spurs or whips on horses.

Are you using your thigh, knee, or just heel?
recording could improve with no music and eliminate background rub. thanks for the video.
The wind
So all of them are use left foot to go right except for turning the rear which is use left foot to go left
What in the heck is the noise in the background 😂😂

This horse seems very angry...
