Flatwork exercises for horses - The green horse.

Flatwork exercises for horses - The green horse. In this video, I show you a complete training session for my young/green horse. This is the beginning of how to get your horse on the bit. It begins by getting your horse forward and he then takes the contact. There are many exercises to get your horse on the bit but if your horse won't go forward you have no hope of working out how to get your horse on the bit without pulling on his mouth. It's not about keeping the horses head down instead, it is about getting your horse forward and accepting the contact he offers. Then you can start to ask him to "round" his frame. If you pull on his mouth you are going to have a horse that sits "behind" the contact and you never have a true connection.

Thank you for watching. I hope this helps you to understand how a green horse learns to find his balance and then the contact/connection in the early days of his training.

You are a very open honest and humbled teacher. It helps me bc when I’m working our green horses, my mind sometimes focuses on what I’ve done wrong. You make it easy to accept it and continue

I’m so glad I found your channel. You ride real horses. I appreciate that you present it real. It’s very helpful to see you ride and deal with the bucks and helping him through it without giving into it. Bravo .

I just discover your videos and A VERY BIG THANK YOU. I asked my trainer to watch your trot/canter video and if we could work on that. She was happy to and she was very engaged during our lesson. It was the first time in years my back, hips, knees and ankles didn’t hurt.

I also love and appreciate that you show the whole video errors and all. It’s so helpful.

What a wonderful video! I recently started my young horse under saddle and I’ve found it really hard to find good training content for those first few weeks/months of riding. This makes me excited for my next ride!

Thank you! So helpful to see actual green horses doing actual green horse things. And how to work through them, and how long the rider has to stick with it to see actual results.

What a beautiful Rebell! Even after 5 weeks of training he has been so generous to show his potential to you! Love from Germany, C.

Oh lord how wonderful to watch a traning video of the "non-perfect" part of the leraning process. I do not learn from the "perfect picture" since that is not my experience at home traning my horse. Thank you for a honest and humble way of teaching!

[pennyforthem]

Best video I, ve seen of how to work through

[eliseblair]
