How to Teach Your Horse to do LIBERTY [The first steps of liberty training]
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
In this video I'll be showing how to teach your horse to do liberty with my 3 year old miniature horse Nemo. This is the first day that I worked with him and started teaching liberty. Ill be explaining all the beginning steps that I take the first time I work with a horse.
Feel free to try this on your horses (or ponies ;) ) and let me know if you have any questions I would be glad to answer them!
Hopefully I will be making more videos on the next things that I do so that you guys can see the progress we have made!
Remember that training doesn't come over night, you need to be 100% dedicated!

I love seeing someone treat their horses with respect and love. I am always so afraid to click on "teaching" videos because some of them are just so cruel and disgusting. You are an amazing young lady and you have so much patience which is rare. Great work and I have subbed :-).

This little gal is a wonderful horse woman at such a young age! Wish I had had that opportunity when I was young. What a good smart boy little Nemo is. Keep it up!

Because of your videos my horse has done so well with Liberty and Free Riding. She has learned to rear, Liberty, Stand on a block, and more. Thank you so much Juliette! You inspire me literally everyday. Thank you so so much for making these tutorials. 💟💖❤
Omg this is perfect. I currently own 2 newforest yearlings who came off the forest last year and liberty would just be perfect to help them stay focused on their learning journey
Kind of off topic, but what on earth is in the arena? I really love that footing. What kind is it??

Y’know… this comment may have been 4 years ago but it’s sand in the arena, it creates very good footing for the horses, you can still use it if it’s wet too
I really want to be able to do this with my horse, but unfortunately there's grass around the edges of the arena which would win him over XD

Turn the grass to.your advantage .....do exactly the same steps as in this video and add into the game "its not time to eat"...... put your attention on me my dear horse!" and you will end up with an even stronger bond than if you worked without grass! I dont have an arena - I have to work on grass !!!! Its harder to start with but the end result is a stronger bond.

I'm going to attempt to train my four year old rescue Shetland stallion now you've inspired me! :)
I love this, especially as it is from the beginning☺️❤️
Thank you so much for this video! I've watched it a bunch of times and have being following it for two days on my shetland pony filly and I can't believe how good she is at it already - she seems to totally get it! She's only 9 months old so I don't want to do too much with her yet but this has been so much fun and I love doing it with her :) Thanks again :D
I cannot get over how freaking cute that little guys is.
I love your videos and now I know how i've to train my little girl. THANK YOU
FANTASTIC!!!!
This video has really helped me! I found with other videos they didn't explain it tell you that the horse doesn't always listen and how to solve this and also other people work with horses that have already been trained! I'll be watching all your Liberty videos as I'm interested in doing Liberty work with my filly
This is so helpful!!!! Thank you so much for uploading this
I have a horse where i live and i really wanted to teach her liberty! This is gonna be a big help!! Thanks, Plus i really love to see someone with a friendship relationship, my old trainer with most of her horses hers was built out of fear.. So i love to see this its almost amazing how much they can listen. thanks again. :3
Awesome video! Thank you so much!
I am trying to train my Minni horse for liberty and this helps a lot!! I have a very stubborn pony though.🐎
This video gave me so much! Thanks!❤️ you are amazing
Very nice :) I am really trying to get into liberty work with my horse :)
good job. I'm going to start playing with my semi-retired carriage horse tomorrow. :) Thanks! xx LIzzi
omg i love this! it actualy explains how im going to try it with my thoroughbred mare, please do more!!!
Tysm for this video! I plan on doing a little bit of this with a horse im starting to loan on Friday, she is 13 and she already follows me naturally without me asking, but these will help me with improving our relationship :) thank you so much xo
my horse is doing good! not my horse, but the horse I'm training. learning in first day! he's a miniature pony, and I barely need the whip or lead anymore! I'll start with the whip to refresh his memory, but he's doing great! thanks! ;) I'm also teaching him to bow. he's doing good with bowing to. just thank you!!!
So adorable this horse🐎🐎🐎❤❤❤
Thank you. Your videos are really helpful!
Love the miniature horse 🤠
amazing video!!! really helpful i want to start doing liberty work and was looking into getting a miniature in the future. u really helped me learn the first few steps of liberty work. thx so much xoxox
great job!!!
Thanks this was a really helpful video!
Very helpful, great job!
I just want to tell you, that i have used this method of teaching my pony liberty, and it worked VERY well for my pony and me. I have in a long time haved problems with my pony in groundwork, because he think it is boring. He ran away from me everytime i told him to do a trick or something and i couldn´t catch him again. Today when i tried this, he ran to me with so much energy and happiness, with his ears focused on me. I could take the rope away and make tricks and he stayed with me all the time after training this liberty. :D So thank you for sharing these amazing videos, it definently helped me! :) (Sorry for bad english, i´m from Denmark. :P )
This is so awesome!
Wow!! I really liked this!!
Very helpful thank you!
Great video
i love your videos!! thank you soo much for posting :)
HES SO CUTE!!! Enough said. He’s adorable
This is so much fun I did it with my mini !
This was so cool
Wow! This is incredible Oreoliberty!!! When I get a horse, I might train him/her to do some liberty. :)

+Allison Gillmore Actually, ANY horse is capable of learning this type of thing. If you're controlling the feet (Like she is in the video, such as moving his feet when he wasn't paying attention to her) any horse under the sun will understand the concept, because that is how horses communicate among themselves. :)

Such a great video!!! Please do more like it :D
I sincerely hope you stay with horses as you get older and become a trainer. Thumbs up!
I also do liberty's with our paint mare she is now ten, and always knows she watches for every move, and mirrors what we do in our round pen ,open pasture, like a big ol puppie
OMG I loved this video it's so cute!
You're video's are great!! keep it up! :)
Love your video's !
Awesome love it
Wow from all the vedios can learn something (y) ☺ ♡♡♡♡♡
Might try some of this with my little ex polo pony as she's very playful but loves doing things such as join up so I think she will enjoy it!
OMG NEMO IS SO CUTE
It's a beautiful horse
Hi love your videos! I taught my miniature horse liberty And I have some suggestions for videos! I saw u trying to get your horse Oreo to do the capriole and I would love to learn how u taught that especially how to teach it from the ground so I can train my miniature horse that. And I would like to know how to train a horse the piaffe from the ground too
This helped a lot thx 😊
This is cool 🥰🥰
Thank you for making this!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)
OMG THE PONY IS SOOOO CUTE!!!!😀😊😜
very informative. Thank you for this video. What to do with a horse that kicks out with hind feet? I don't have a horse, but I have seen some horses at the lease stables that kick out when they are walking by someone.
I love all your how to's! Gives a lot of inspiration! :D Could you make a video of how to get a relaxed hore in trot? One of my horses tend to get really tense when we train the trot(both riding and on the ground) :)
Great video! Please do more tutorials
hey, I love your videos (and instagram.) I'm wondering if you could do more videos with Nemo. I'm getting my own miniature next month and I want to do liberty with him. I only trust this account with liberty because your AMAZING !!!!

miniatures are awesome but they're also kinda assholes at times so be prepared to spend more time with manners at the beginning. they're really genius too!!! They're quite the characters
I have a Shetlandpony she's 2 years now and im doing groundwork and trick training and she follows me even if I never trained that! But I want to teach this my mare hopefully the video helps me❤
Nice! Do you have any website or DVD with more tutorials? Best regards from sunny Portugal
This has help me so much she obey me and Just want to say thank you
I loved this video! Can you pls do more liberty training videos?
hi, where did you learn this from? a book, dvd? I was wanting to order the liberty system but wasn't sure if it was even a thing. Thanks.
Hi, thank you for this video. I do have a question: how do you teach the horse to run to you in stead of just a slow walking? Would love to hear from you.
XD i can't believe i tried to teach my horse tricks when i was 8, to be honest I probably taught her more stuff by the time i was 10 than a normal riding horse would learn but DAYUMM i did NOT know what i was doing. This video just slapped me in the face
You're incredible. I would love to teach my horse how to do liberty but she won't yeild her hind quarters.... And when I take her bridle off she just runs away. I have watched all of your training videos and several others. Does anyone have any advice
the video was cute thank you
I started doing liberty training with my horses after watching your videos and they love it 😃 It didn't take long for them to get it and it is so fun being able to train them like that on the ground instead of just riding them all the time. But one question though; does anyone know how to teach your horse to back up when you stand behind him? 🤔 I've seen a lot of people do it and I'm very curious about how they taught the horse to do it 😊
i really really love your breeches. where did you get them? if you dont mind me asking :) also ive watched alot of liberty starting videos and yours is by far the best(ive actually watched all your videos and youre definitely a role model now!!!) ill be using this to start my boyfriends horse on liberty!
you are amazing
So cool
I want to do this with my horse but I don't have and enclosed arena or round pen😢😪 and awesome video I learnt heaps☺️😘🐎👌🏻
I love watching your videos and am hoping to start getting into liberty with my own horse. I was curious if anyone taught you what you know or if you were self taught? Thanks!
Hi, do you use a lunge whip or dressage whip or both? And do you use a dressage whip to train your horses to do other tricks? Also what are the benefits of liberty? Thanks.
Hi, I used this method with two of my horses, and they picked it up really well and loved it! They both showed lots of energy when chasing me, and i had no problem getting them to trot and canter after me. However, I've started doing this with another pony, and he gets the concept of moving his haunches really well, but I can't seem to get any energy; he'll only walk after me. Have you got any tips for creating more energy when he's following me? Thank you
The whip looks huge next to Nemo!
hi i have a miniature Shetland like yours but i really want to teach him liberty but i cant go and teach him everyday i can only do once a week, would that matter as i know it would take a bit longer but does it matter? and secondly he is 5 years old and he still has a though aggression issues and i was wondering what you would do to stop them? they are things like biting and kicking out. your videos are amazing and i really love your tutorials they are so so helpful, i would be very grateful if you could reply thankyou x
hi I am just starting to train my horse and was just wondering does it matter the age of the horse ? I have a colt and a 14 year old and was wondering who I should start with?
My haflinger is great at following me, but I am having a hard time getting him to pick up his speed and actually trot or run with me...any suggestions? I have tried raising my energy and making it more playful and he gets treat rewards, he just doesnt want to go fast or keep up with my pase.
With a normal sized horse (quarter horse) what is their reaction when you are running around? My mare runs after us when we run and I always thought it's because they think we are running away from something scary, so they run too. What do I need to do?
Thank you
I want to start some liberty with my almost 3YO mare. We did a lot of work on the ground before but no liberty. I saw in the video that you are using treats. Did you also do it without before? i Don't really want to give her treats and just want to do it by a positive voice and rubbing ... do you think this will also work?
I have been starting to work on this with my horse.. He does a great job of yeilding his haunches but when I want him to lunge he just yeilds his haunches. How do I differeniate between the two?
Love this video💜 is this natural horsemanship?
I have a question! If I can't make it out to the stables everyday ( because of school) will that affect their learning? If so how much? Thanks!
I've just got a loan pony called sherry and she's a 24-year-old British riding pony. I know from her owners that I can do liberty with her and she is fine with whips but I'm scared I'll do something wrong. any extra tips or advice? P.S I also help look after miniature shetlands and their liberty was a fail because they are very scared of whips also what whip do you use
I lease an appendix mare named Tipsey and at my barn where I ride we don't have a lot of room where I could do some of this stuff. Is it better to do it in an arena or could I do it in a pasture with flat land? To my knowledge she has had no training with liberty and can get really agressive at times when I have a lunge whip with a string at the end so would a dressage whip work? My friend has one that she uses when she rides this Percheron. She trusts me though but like a mare can be stubborn. She'll follow me for a few minutes after I lunge her and do join up. Please answer my questions as this would be most appreciated

EquineLover check out this guy called DU horseman or think like a horse
When you do the come when called, do you lunge them then call them?
What kind of whip are you using?
My horse has aggression issues.. I would love to do this but I’m scared he’ll attack me. Do u have any tips for aggression in the cross ties?
I thought I would try these things with the horse I lease to spice up the boring arena work . He's not sensitive to the whip at all, is happy to follow me around the arena, zig zagging etc, but as soon as I run, he either stops and watches me go or just ambles along , eventually catching up to me. Is this just something he's doing because this is the first time we've done this or can I do something to encourage him to put more energy into it?
Hey! I tried this with my horse a couple of times now. I can only do this once a week. I tried the follow me game and he is ok with it and he follows me. Once i try running a bit further he doesnt follow and he never trots after me, he is okay with keeping hes head with me but walking forward is a bit of an issue. If we do a couple of circles sometimes he comes to me sometimes he doesnt. It seems like he isnt listening to me. I tried running after hi and then backing away and calling, he faces me but stands still and doesnt move. Am i doing something wrong? What can i do?
Hi there, Love your videos!!!! But I need some help. My pony (Aspen) does nothing but just stand when I work with her she doesn't move forward at all. When I do have food as treats she becomes mean and shuves me around. She is not fased about wips but as soon as I walk with her and the touch her she jumps away. What can I do??? Plz help!
If I'm really sick and can't train every day what do I do since I've been sick for a while now
Hey thanks for the tutorial! I'm so glad you made a video on how to start liberty, because I've been looking so hard to find a good tutorial on how to start it. Most of the videos I've watched were extremely long and didn't explain things very well. But I do have a question...what if you have an extremely lazy horse like mine that prefers to stand there like a potato instead of playing? Lol because I can barely get him to a fast walk. He's not motivated to go faster with treats or anything. I've tried using lots of energy and exaggerating my movements but he is literally the laziest horse I've ever met haha.

LivingLouder My horse is like this too! Hahaha. She'll just stand there and very lazily take steps when I ask her to follow me. I really love these tutorials, though. I think It'd be great if Oreoliberty could make more videos on how to really get your horse's attention and connect with your horse.
