JUMPING MY TWO HORSES // + voiceover

- Just an FYI that I filmed the voice over for this a few days ago and since then, the corona virus situation has been changing. We’ll be playing it by ear whether we go to a show at the weekend or not and will follow any guidelines put in place!
›› Today I talk through my jump schooling session with Dali and Khal! They are both at very different stages of training so I thought it'd be interesting to compare them.
›› Hey, my name is Holly and welcome to my channel! I post all sorts of equestrian videos like show vlogs, training videos, barn vlogs and more. If you want to keep up to date with me and the horses then be sure to hit that subscribe button :)

its sooo weird seeing firstly big Dali and then Khal haha, he looks like a pony while Dali is sooo like his mother haha, love them so muchhhh
Anna Porro he does doesn’t he 😂
I know, he’s so small 😂
I love both of their trots. They both fling their feet and look so flashy. They must get it from their momma!😂❤️
How come is Khal already 6? OMG 😱 I remember being super excited because you were going to start him! Geez, time flies indeed! They're both amazing, love them ❤️
I can’t believe it either! 7 years ago we put Fiona in foal, it’s crazy 😍
Stable in quarantine; I’m in quarantine. Thank you for entertaining me during those lonely times! I love your boys ^_^ Dali looks incredible for a young horse!
I’m sorry to hear that! I’m glad my videos somewhat ease the boredom!
Holly Lenahan merci 😊
Dali is gorgeous, he definitely takes after Fiona
I love how you bring up your young horses. They look so soft and supple, and truly happy to do their work. I love watching your videos ❤️🐴
When the video first switched to Khal he looked like a tiny pony compared to Dali!🤩x
I know right! He’s so much smaller ☺️
My eyesight while looking at the thumbnail said: OH it’s a Roan!!
But no, the horse was just clipped 😂😂
I really like your attitude towards getting horses and especially young horses back into work! You're not pressuring them in any bad way and it feels like you have a really healthy way of doing it which makes for happy and healthy horses! I enjoy watching these videos a lot 🤩 🤩
Thanks so much! ☺️
You've done such a great job with both horses!
They’re both looking amazing Holly , you should be so so proud 💖
Lysm! I really love the voiceover videos❤️❤️❤️
its been so so fun watching you start khal and dali. :) You look so amazing on your horses
Love your videos, I wait all week for them !
I am in love with both of them 😍 you are really doing such a great job with them! Congrats and good luck for the futur!
Thank you!
Ohh looks amazing as always!!!! I love your TH-cam channel! 😆💎😍🦄
Oh my god, I can't believe how good Dali is!! 😍 And Khal is so pretty 😊
As usual, I really enjoy watching your lovely soft hands.
Just a thought about your comment about Khal’s tendency to come behind vertical in the contact (I could be wrong). It strikes me that he shares Fiona’s conformation In the area of his poll, meaning how it attaches to his head. The T-1and T-2 vertebrae seem rather straight on both horses. Not that it means that he can’t round, just that it might be a tad harder for him to do it.
Yes I agree he finds it a bit harder. He tends to have a very straight top line, even compared to Dali who is much less experienced.
I LOVE your videos! They are incredible!!! Also I hope you guys stay safe from the Coronavirus! 💓
Thank you! Same to you ❤️
I'd love a video on worst falls or fails or talking about some breaks💚💚
Love your stuff
Dali! 💕💕💕 both such sweet boys 🥰
Every time I watch your videos I am astonished on how good of a rider you are. I love your videos!!! 😍
What a pair of handsome brothers, they look great. You should be really proud of yourself 🤩
Thanks! ❤️
Kahl looks amazing, lovely boys
They both look so cute when they jump
Holly you are such and amazing trainer/rider. Dali looks 1000 times better than the Connemara mare I used to ride. She will be 10 this April but oh boy, she does NOT act her age, she was never started properly and is very hot, green and very inconsistent in the contact, where as Dali looked super relaxed with you even after only a couple rides, which proves just how well you have done with his ground work even before you got on. Just wow
Literally No one Connie’s take a lot longer to mature than most horses
Kinda sorta Equestrian maybe, but she had used her first couple of years at a camping place where she was used for small children to be walked around, causing her to have a really har time bending to the right. She then lived with another girl for 2 years where she jumped, but she was sadly never taught the basics and never learned how to carry herself, so when her current owner made a quick decision to buy her and later found out that she was SUPER stresst and knew no dressage, on top of that, her new owner is not the most experienced or confident rider so things quickly started going sour and get worse, but now she has been ridden by some very experienced riders and is starting to act more sensible but she is still no where near as well trained as any of hollys horses. I had a short half lease on her and in she was my horse would most likely focus ALOT on ground work and basic along with getting her professionally trained. So even if she is a Connie, that is definitely not the only reason she is like this,
That’s why I much rather to start a horse from scratch than get one that’s already broken! I’m sure you’ll get there with her though ☺️
Your such a good rider I’m Irish ☘️ too hope I get to meet you one day :)
Khal looks so good!
Really loving the video, I was wondering if you have tips for getting them long and low and relaxed? My mare is quite stressy so I find it really difficult to get her to relax and stretch out!
Yeah I’m looking for the same tips!
Lots of lateral work and bending their body. Also pressure and release to reward them every time they lower their head into a more relaxed frame ☺️
Holly, I really think Dali’s frame would come out sooooo much better if you’d put a bigger pad on him! You have such a small saddle and pad which makes his belly look big even though he’s not fat 😂❤️ Loving his progress though, he’s so cute 🤩
That’s actually a large saddle and saddle pad, he’s just very big (and also does have a big belly at the moment!)
Holly I love your vids your horses are amazing and I have a question how do u use one saddle on all of the horses how does it fit all of them 🤣 plz could you explain the saddle things cause I’m so confused but ye kal looks so good
I wish I could afford a custom saddle for each horse but unfortunately I cannot 😉 I will be making a video soon where I get the saddle refitted and checked as it’s been a while since I bought it!
Us Equestrians now have plenty of time to be able go riding due to Corona 😜
Yes definitely!
“The plan is to go to a show next weekend and jump the 1.10 just to keep it simple” while I’m over here with my Connemara that’s jumped over 1.30 with her last owners and me entering in the 50’s cus I’m such a bad rider 😂😂😂
I love these videos!!! Btw, I dont know why but around yours & Dali's shilouette, it looks like there is a sort of grey fog around you??
I think it's the camera lens.
It’s rain on the camera :)
I thought Dali was his mom when the video started LOL
Totally off topic but what is that app you used to track what you did with your horses? Thanks xx
I was going to do a competition this Sunday but it’s been cancelled 😩
Ah that’s a pity!
Hi should horses always wear bandages whilst travelling?
Early
Dali looks a lot like Fiona!
I mean I know it's Khal and Dali who are the main stars and they've both come back in so good.... but i'm sorry, I just cannot get over the chickens! They make these videos that bit extra... This one for example well you made it funny too but I come up with loads hahaha like... "why did the chicken cross in front of Khals jump... no wait... sorry guys we got news he didn't make it"
Hahah I love them, such characters 😂
What age is Dali? He's so mature omg😂
How many meters did you have the last exercise?
Not sure the exact meters, but it’s just the normal bounce distance and then one normal stride
How do you teach your horse to lower the head and engage the back
Try getting some dressage lessons as it’s impossible to give an answer to that in a message! ☺️
Holly Lenahan i get one at least once a week and it’s still so hard to get her to do it
What show are u going to
Mullingar if it’s on ☺️
You mentioned a show next week. Hasn't it been cancelled?
Registered shows are cancelled but some venues are doing unregistered shows with certain protocols in place
With Dahli, your lower leg was to DIE for. With Khal, your heel was “popping” when you posted in trot. I’m working very hard on trying to get my lower leg more stable, so I was just wondering why your leg was so motionless with Dahli and why it was popping with Khal? Is it just the horses movement? Is it because Khal is narrower and it’s harder to use your knees to rise? I have a really good lower leg in my dressage saddle, but when I’m in my jumping saddle (shorter stirrups being my point here) my leg pops in trot
Because that’s me squeezing khal forward with each stride as he’s very lazy. Whereas Dali is very forward going so a still leg works better with him ☺️
Holly Lenahan ohhh I see, I was kinda hoping I wasn’t that so you could give me some revelation that could help me with my own temperamental heels 😂 Thanks for replying anyway, I really admire the way you ride, very soft and balanced
Ah sorry haha if your leg is good in the dressage saddle then maybe it’s your jump saddle that isn’t supporting you as well? Or try no stirrups to try and stretch your legs down and around the horse ☺️
Are either of them out of Fiona? especially Dali reminds me so much of her!
Yes they both are ☺️
Yup they both are ☺️
wheres welbeck?
What part of Ireland are U from
Westmeath :)
@@HollyLenahanSJ thanks so much 4 replying
Second
everything I am doing with my ponies have being cancelled because the cornavirus
A lot is cancelled here too :(
