Love owners commitment to learning. Beautiful spirit of this horse.

Very touching. Wow, Buttercup and her person have come so far. Thanks Mia for helping them. Thanks for advocating for bitless riding. It is catching on now more and more.

Another job well done!! A fine example of a relaxed and willing partner. 👍👍

I’m so happy for Buttercup.

Mia is the absolute best !!

Sweet Buttercup it’s magical to have seen her transform from day one totally breaking away from everything being asked of her bc of the trauma someone unfortunately put her through and filled with worry that she was going to continue to be treated that way,to slowly opening herself up to trust like the blooming flower she’s named for one moment at a time. She’s clearly still got some apprehension about it all and she’s absolutely earned that right but she WANTS to be loved so much and it warms my heart to see that she has a guardian who very obviously adores her and wants to show her that her life can be wonderful,that human touch is nothing but softness and tenderness thank you for giving her that chance Claire.Horses are precious beings who have done so much for us and the very LEAST we can do for them is to treat them with the love,kindness and respect that they deserve,this whole video made me tear up especially the moment where she blew a true sign of letting her wall down & relaxing,thank you Mia.🤎🌻🐎☀️

Thank you Mia

Mia you are so wonderful! I hope the owner watches this again and again to see how far ahead she kept getting in front of her horse so she can truly get it. One must observe how you stay right next to the horse, almost behind the head, and NOT in front!!🙏

Aww, so good. I'm right near this place. I wish I could have seen the work.

AMAZING. Love your transformation from a defensive horse to a willing partner. You let her express, meet her where she is at and show her a trust that is honerd. 😊

😍😘

So happy for these two and their new relationship!!❤

Buttercup's eyes show her happiness and joy at having no hard, cold, pain-inducing metal in her mouth. Fills my heart with love.

Congratulations!! Double blessings! You sound so connected spiritually to your family and community. Blessings to Nicole and the two girls to get strong

Such a nice mare and so sad she was abused like she was. So glad her owner contacted you. They now have a bright future ahead of them

i often wonder if trainer is wearing a 'special' fragrance... lemongrass or sage...

Oh how I wish I could run like that again. What if you can move like that with your horse?
