I LOVE the sound of the birds, makes it like you’re actually there!

Core strength is incredibly important for any horse, but even more so for my mare, who has been diagnosed with kissing spine. All these exercises help give her the topline muscling she needs to keep symptoms at bay! Thanks Susan!

Oh and not only is the tail pull good for the core muscles but extremely good for the back!!! I know I love it

Great ideas for both horse and rider. He is absolutely beautiful!!

Thank you!

These are so great to do in the winter to try to keep maintaining core strength. Exercises for carrots is a good motivator too! 😊

Very nicely demonstrated, thank you!

Hello and thank you for your video on strengthening your horses core. I would love to have a conversation with you though. I have an 11 year old arab mare and she is incredibly sweet and intelligent. The problem being that she comes with only ready to ride training. Not to worry,, I am happy to train her. My question is regarding strengthening her entire body. She is very "left handed" so the muscle groups in the chest area are larger on that side up through the shoulder. I need to get the right side the same way. I do not want her in any pain because of this. Ground work is good, she softens up very well but can be stubborn with the lead. Could you offer me some advice on everyday exercises I can do now, to get her string and healthy to ride train in the spring?

My chiro would always say “the release (of tension) (stretch) is the reward” and “don’t create the Cookie Monster!” Use the carrot or large cookie to invite the horse but don’t ever give him the cookie until you can put it in his feed bin or something not hand fed

I've been teaching stretches with carrots for years and none of them are cookie monsters. It's all about how you do it.

I’d love to watch this whole video as sure it’s really helpful but the noise of those birds drowns out the instructions 🙈
