I love how you teach the horse with kindness and you're not impatient.

You should turn your body in the direction you want her to move, so she understands it easier.

I really love the way that you show how it really is, it’s not always an easy and simple task and it’s very messy and not always perfect, especially during the things like training. This is such an informative and well put together video

that's a nice technique, but I would say that you could use more body language and less whip. I taught my yearling to lunge without the use of the whip. I have only used a whip once so far in lunging and that was to teach her to go faster. Now I don't need it in order to get her to trot. I'm only about a week in on training her at all. I really like how encouraging she is to her horse as well. even if the horse doesn't understand words, she can sense the release in you when you say them.

How did you train her I’m trying to find some ways that would work better for her she’s kinda slow and lazy do I might need a little reinforcement but I’d like to use as least whip as I can

Love this! I love that you use a green horse instead of onw who already knows how to lunge! Very helpful! Also I just have to say I love the way your barn is set up💜💜

I love this video! I love all your videos, really :) I adopted a wild yearling just over a month ago to save her from the slaughter pipeline, and have gotten her to a really great place with leading, backing, catching her, so I am ready to move onto ground work. I'm so glad you have such awesome, gentle yet firm techniques that I feel comfortable using, and speak to a horse's natural thought process. I can't get behind a lot of the harsher trainers, so I am very thankful to have access to your videos for help! I also used them with my 18 year old broodmare who was just started under saddle last year and they've helped tremendously. Thank you!

Thing with my horse is I desensitised him with the whip and he isn't scared of it at all even when I give him a little bit more pressure in the tap

I just saw that horses ears showed that he/she was afraid,just saying just a less bit wip,but i love it

I love your videos Missy! Thank you for breaking it down so I can apply these techniques. I waited my whole life to own a horse and I bought a "well trained trail horse" in November. Turned out she has been in a pasture with her herd for 10 yrs with little handling. I am moving her in 5 days to a better location that has the proper training facilities since I am starting from scratch. (I'm not a trainer but I will do whatever it takes to learn). I found my own personal style is aligned with yours-I've tried to use DUH and it didn't feel right. It was like punishing her for not knowing what was expected. After 4 months my girl greets me at the gate and walks with me w/o a lead, follows me around and is so eager to learn. She looks a lot like Tillee (Belgian Cross) and the bond we have is magical. I am so excited to see what the future holds for us. I will be sticking with your techniques going forward. It was not easy to weed through the dozens of trainers (all of them are the best). When you recently mentioned in another video to follow your gut, I knew I was on the right path. Thank you again. -Denise & Pumpkin, Guelph, ON CAN.

I just bought a rope halter/lead & stick from Clinton Anderson and I love it. Then I saw your bitless bridle and of course wish I had purchased it instead.

So useful thnx xxx

I have no real experience with horses other than riding them a few times. Based on watching KZread videos, I think you may have been able to get her to move to your left more easily with a flag extended more toward her rear quarter. (behind the drive line) She was mostly responding by backing up. as you moved forward into her.

I'm here looking how to train my 5 year old pinto pony. I always hated the idea of whipping her into my will thank you for posting this

I absolutely love the way you train your horses

Such a pretty horse!! 🐎

Great video :) teaching my dog to lunge as I'm not the most athletic and planning to move soon where she cannot be off leash to run as she loves to just to get that extra exercise before/after a walk. I had to start by walking with her, eventually lengthening the lead as we circle and she's been getting the hang of it just by giving a small tug of the collar on the line and her command to come along or "go". Might switch to a head collar to see if it becomes easier than a flat neck collar because I have to keep tension on the line and I'm feeling more resistance than cooperation lol

So nice video

I love her voice ❤️

I have a new mare who was trained badly on lunging. She is very good at leaving me with a point, however she takes off in a full run..head looking everywhere...bucking half the time and then when told to stop or slow down she comes right in to me. I'm working on fixing that but the dead run thing has me stupmed a little

Clucking is more effective in my opinion

I love this woman so much. Thank you for being so kind and understanding to horses. Not many trainers like that these days.

I have had my horse for 2 years and have never been able to lunge him. Yet this method worked perfectly and now he loves being on the lunge. Love your videos and can't wait to learn and teach my horse more from them X

My horse, when I tap him with the stick end of the whip, he kinda walks into it instead of away, and Gets in my space when it’s time for work

Start with a shorter distance from your hand to the nose. Get the nose to move without BUMPING it. Be patient. Other than that this is good work.

This is so wholesome and sweet, I love this training method❤️

Thank You so much for this!!! I'm 13 and training my mare and no one has taught me how to teach her how to lunge! But this helped so much!!!! She Gets it so well now! I also watched every other video and my mare has Improved so much!!! Thank you again!

I recommend working with her in complete freedom in a fenced place ( roundpen etc.) and start using a leadrope and lunging when she comes to you and follows you when called without a rope.

Do you know what age I should start lunging my horse? Like at least having her circle around like in a round pen? I’ve been looking in the internet and haven’t seemed to find what age, because some say 5 some say 2. Can you help me?

@MissyWrynHolisticHorseTrainer

5 жыл бұрын

I start horses under saddle no younger than the age of 3 and NO advanced training until 5 years of age. I prefer liberty training with horses under 3 years of age so they get the idea of following cues, but avoiding repetitive movements such as circling that could strain and damage young growing muscles, tissues and bones. Hope this helps.

Missy Wryn thank you! Do you know anything I should teach her at the moment? She is a year old and I haven’t been doing anything besides leading her. What else should I do?

This is a great way to teach lunging but it won’t work my my youngster as before I got him he was beaten with a lunge whip until he was forced to jump a 5 bar gate onto concrete to get away so now anytime he sees a lunge whip he will freak and run, no way of stopping him until you drop the whip. So tapping him on the shoulder would freak him out. We’ve tried lunging him before and he yanks away and stands in the corner of the arena shaking where he’s just so scared of what his old owners/breeders did to him 💔

I recommend watching my Training the Whole Horse DVD series from the beginning which teaches you how to establish yourself as your horse's herd leader. Horse's are genetically wired to require a herd leader at all times, and until your horse recognizes you as its herd leader it will continue to be YOUR herd leader which is dangerous. You can watch the entire Training the Whole Horse series FREE kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZIaTqdlwcrSbdKw.html.

This makesso much sense. i am gonna try this on my horse. He doesn't know how to lunge on a line so hopefully this will help.

What is the breed of this horse? She is absolutely beautiful!

Um... There was no audio for me.

When you show a horse how to do something as nicely as this they pick it up so quickly. Just tried this with my thoroughbred, he's so clever got it in under 10 minutes.

Zuri, actually a paint is a paint because one or both of its parents were genetically paints. It is possible for it to exhibit no pattern at all. A PINTO has the white and colored body. So when Missy Wryn says "clyde/paint" she means one parent was clyde and the other a paint (thoroughbred, quarter horse, or paint in its bloodlines) or "shire/paint" she means one parent was shire and the other a (genetic) paint. Whatever she is she IS beautiful.
