Lucky horse, he has a really great trainer. This guy deserves a round of applause for his amazingly calm and patient disposition.

That’s exactly what I’m thinking!!

You helped me understand that it is okay for me to keep up asking when my horse doesn't like a cue. Best video I've seen explaining cues.

Great

I really liked the fact that you worked with a horse that is green with leg cues. So many demos are done on perfectly trained horses that don't act up or do it poorly. You can see how to correct the problem. Thanks

Happy that it helped.

I understand the need to show finished results with well broke horses, but I love that you show this with a horse that isn't perfect. Often I try to learn something and the trainer shows it with a dead broke horse that will do anything, which leaves me wondering what is wrong with me and/or my horse. Nice to see you give both the well trained example, AND the learning example!!!!

Thanks. I have had the same frustration, that’s why I did it.

I love how the horse blinked and chewed at the end showing that he understood that he did a good job with the gate.

I love this video So clear and I found it easy to understand.

Thank you so much for this and the first video! You demonstrated it perfectly and with the greener horse as well. My horse is from the quarter horse race track, but doesn't seem to know all of the cues that he needs to know. I wanted to make sure he learned the right way. Looks like I have my work cut out for me. Thanks again!

Cool video. Really enjoy these and will be watching more.

Thank you for making this so easy to understand and sharing the knowledge!

This is excellent and thanks for using a green horse.

Very Helpful!

Thank you. Others tried to teach this so fast it was hard to catch. I'm getting my green horse in a couple of weeks and I want to be ready for her.

Thank you this was helpful! I like how kind you are to your horses. My friends and I ride with no bits though. I feel the horses like it better.

I ride with hackamores on some horses and it is true they like it better. There are some maneuvers that I cannot teach in a hackamore and since I train horses, most horses need to be accustomed to a bit.

@@SteveDyer Yes I can understand that. I wish more people would also realize they can ride with no bits creating pain and have a better relationship with their horse. Thank you!

This is amazing! Thank you so much for this video. I started lessons, but all I hear is to keep my heels down. I didn’t understand at all what to do with my legs, nor was it explained. I wish I could find a trainer like yourself in my area. In the meantime I’ll be watching and rewatching your videos :) thank you!!

Yes. I have over 150 videos on this channel. There is a series on the Principles of Horse Training. There are several series of videos training different horses and I explain how to do it in the process. Thanks for watching.

I throughly understood this, thanks Mr! How do you know when a horse is solid on it? Or how do you know when to do more? Thanks

Great explanation! Can you please do more videos like these to properly do leg cues and how to teach a horse to neck rein.

Thanks. kzread.info/dash/bejne/aXx1zbStl9nXZ6Q.html. I have other videos on using leg cues also. Over 300 videos on this channel. Think of it as a treasure hunt :)

I don't ride with an "active" leg, I just use my butt or leg to make him go or go faster. I think it is quite annoying to a horse to get constantly bumped just to keep going. To stop I also change my seat, whoa, and forward legs maybe, and reins. The less the better. Works great. My only "problem" is, he likes to go FAST like a rocket when cantering on a long straight track, and I don't want to pull his bit too much to make him slow down. I can stop him, but it's definitely a lack of tempo control on my side. I don't think that's due to not constantly giving active legs though, more likely it's because I only ride 3 times a week and he is full of energy and high spirit. Obviously it's more noticeable on the way back to the barn, lol.

are you in Hanksville or Moab? do you give some private lessons?

This was filmed in Monument Valley. We have since moved to Oklahoma. I do give lessons but it’s a pretty long drive from Utah :)

when we need to spin the horse with his shoulders or the rear?

Shoulders

Hi! What do you mean about active leg? You mean keep bumping your legs?thanks

@SteveDyer

Жыл бұрын

It is bumping of the lega but light ans subtle. More like moving them in rhythm with the horse. As long as I move, he moves.
