Very informative.

👍👍

Alright, thanks

Very clear explanation, thank you!

Hi. Do you know how I can remove the black lines with the texts? It covers your great visuals

👍 Thx. This is one of, if not the best video I've seen on the subject! Also one of my problem areas. One of the excercises I personally find very effective when "softening"/"correcting" your rising trot while actually riding is the "two up, one down" excercise ie you stay in the light seat for two strides and then sit down for one stride ("up-up-down").

This video and part one are so incredibly helpful. I'm getting started on this journey to heal and help my pastures and I've gained such a great idea of how to start and where to go from this podcast. Thank you so much!

Love this. Really appreciate you covering how to get started (around 15:45). Such wonderful into throughout. I really appreciate you all sharing this!

Well Done! You brought up all my concerns. I need to muzzle my fat horse. Unfortunately, they are all full time field horses. The herd bully, old rotting fence, concern for what grasses come up through the muzzle and observations of actual grass gorging have made me not use one. How do we, therefore, save our horses from laminitis?

Ive been trying to tell people this for years. It's very comforting to be able to share this resource now with them. thank you

The best video ever❤❤❤❤❤

come back your videos were lovely!

Thank you so much. For the first time I am beginning to understand Riding. 😊

Thank you so much for this video its very helpful in explaining which part of the thighs should be engaged. Can you pls explain which muscle of the glutes are working during the rising trot. If i try this without the horse i notice that my glutes maxiumus tense up and im guessing that is not correct?

Hi hello, do we will we lose count of rising trot if we rise too high? i mean, if i look at my riding vid, i feel like there’s something wrong with my rising trot. but when i was riding, i also felt i was still on the count, rising when the outside leg up and sitting when the leg down. i still cannot figure it out

Excellent graphics and dialogue! 👍

🙂 I just discovered your videos and they have created light bulb moments for me on several issues I have been struggling with. Now I feel like I understand what parts of my body need to be working when you ride correctly. Thank you!

How can you tell when the grass is the correct height??? My grass is about ankle to knee high depending on type and the place in the pasture. My wife insists that I need to mow the pasture SHORT with the mower.... and then buy lots of hay (tall grass!!!) and this seems insane to me. Especially since short grass is known to have a lot more sugars... which is what we want to keep him off of. He is not even remotely overweight yet... but the vet insists that we restrict all grass intake... and that he will be fat and or founder easily. Our pasture is mostly warm season annuals and perennials like Bermuda grass (good type for horses). We just got our first horse, and I will have it in the same pasture with my cattle. He is an easy keeper and so we want to go the grazing muzzle route.

That's great Jenny - food for thought :)

I found it really interesting that their diet gives off a lot of energy internally. It's something I never thought about.

Congratulations

Lovely accent 😊

Thankyou so much for this, my daughter is doing a project on life cycles of animals and my mum has just bought a property with horses agisted… we are hoping to assess for numbers of dung beetles and do what we can to increase the numbers and promote the good effects of the little 🪲. Your presentation is really interesting. Thankyou again!

Excellent video! You have explained the mechanics needed and given great mental pictures! My instructors will point out things done wrong but don’t always have the time to explain why. Sometimes I feel like I’m renting the horse and then coming home and looking it up on KZfaq. Will definitely be looking into your coursework. Thank you very much and I’m looking forward!!!

Thku for this information.

Ha! Similar CONS in humans while wearing face masks!

congratulations

congratulations

Thank you so much for all your knowledge… I have a really fat Shetland on new pasture… we are in England… it’s ankle height grass.. he can still eat through it, it’s a Velcro one… I’ve left it on since yesterday as his so fat.. He won’t go alone in the stable and I think he would gorge and get laminitis,his about 27 now…

Thank you!

Very nice! Thank you!

I love this so much! I have stumbled into this organically. But to see that my thoughts are not strange is exciting!

Also, very great video

We add biochar to our feed recently for our grazers. How do you think the small amount of biochar might have an effect on dung beetles? (dairy cow not the horses have it in their feed in very small amounts with seaweed) Do you think that might affect things with the horses. We haven't noticed a drop in dung beetles but we have been permaculture for a very long long time.

Thanks for sharing this interesting series of videos. how to join you private facebook group?

I recently considered buying a big lazy TB (when I'm used to galloways) but when I rode him, I bounced all over the saddle in the trot and couldn't believe it as I'd never had that problem on any of my 14.2 -15 hand show horses! I still don't know if it was the horse, the saddle or me. I needed this video then as he was a proven trustworthy trail riding horse that I passed up on due to my lack of riding confidence and I regret it. Watching some KZfaq videos of western riding for a change rather than English has also shown me great riders. Caroline Beste from #TaoOfHorsemanship KZfaq channel has a great Independent seat and has videos on it too. She's one amazing lady!

As a once upon a time successful (novice) show rider I always paid lots of attention to my seat. Hands.... posture.. Watching the Olympic games recently and the effortless riding in dressage had me curious of this 'independent seat'. Thanks for helpful video!

Thank you, very informative!

Why you stopped ur videos Continue

We should be know aerodynamics or biomechanical theory for Riding 😍😀👍

So funny I’ve always called myself odd and misshapen. But actually I’m built to ride! Hahaha now back to making my own clothes for this funky body I have. Thank you for these videos

Watch this video about how incredible dung beetles are on a horse property. Let us know what you think in the comments below...

I have problems with landing softly but i used to get it rly good but i took about a year break

Found this by mistake but it turned out to be something I needed to know. Thanks a lot.

Me watching the figure of what we’d look like if we’d evolved to ride: “wide hips, small chest, narrow shoulders, good size thighs, kinda short arms? I’m built for this!!!” 🤣🤣

Looking at buying property in the next few years so that I can raise goats 🐐 and small breed cows 🐄 . Actually hoping to get a property where the land has been heavily degraded and therefore get it for a lower price. Planning on heavily mulching with a combination of woodchips, hay and waste fruit and verges from the local supermarket. To be honest, I’m not concerned about any veggies germinating, as I’ll Eat some and the animals will eat some and the rest will be trodden back into the ground. Once I’ve got the mulch starting to break down, I plan on overseeing with mix of a goat 🐐 and beef pasture mix, then when I’m getting a good crop of grass I’ll introduce the animals. I’ll be using rotational grazing to avoid over grazing and allow rest periods on the land.

Managing worms in horses involves more than simply giving them a chemical 'wormer'. Overuse of 'wormers' has lead to them being less effective (like antibiotics). Watch this video to learn about how you can manage and control 'worms' in your horse.

Excellent video!

I'm now definitely going to subscribe to your channel now 😉😊

This has helped alot tysm
