Indeed, Steve Young is tops! Also, look at Klaus Hempfling, Monty Roberts, Buck Branneman, and I hope Steve adds to this list as well, the people he learned from and respects. I believe Steve synthesized a lot of the above people’s and others’ training ways into his wonderful, powerful, truly effective teaching skills he gives us. Would love to know what you think of each.

@@louisegogel7973 - add Warwick Schiller to your list. Former Aussie cowboy & trainer, now based in Calif. He had a major epiphany at a clinic he was giving in Texas about 8+/- yrs. ago & decided to 100% change ALL of his training methods. He's done a deep dive into both Equine & Human Psychology, and himself. He is now 100% Horse Centric, zero abuse, zero anger. I like that he checks himself to make sure he is calm & 100% focused on the horse he is about to work with... before even approaching the horse. Like Steve, he helps the riders/owners too, and the horses he works with end up so much happier - chill, sane & centered... NOT shut down with fear.

Hi Dave, thank you for looking for better ways to train horses!

Love, love love your methods and your videos! With this mare...You nailed it Steve! I agree! You can almost see where this mare may have been afraid of vehicles but learned they would always pass her on her left. Here she comes to Wales and the scary cars have no place to go except to hit them! Maybe she felt in imminent danger and was trying to protect her owner. See how she frequently jumped up on the grassy sides? So when they were riding, she knew she could go to the grass to get away and she could take her rider with her. You can only imagine this is what it could have been! A fantastic job helping this lovely mare!

In this old world with all its problems you make a huge difference with all these horse owners and your positive comments make anyone's day a lot better. Including the horses. Your videos are a kind of therapy for all.

You're a very patient man Steve.

You NAILED it, the horse was trying to get them both out of danger. You are so smart that you figured out that she was fine on one side but not the other.

Would not be at all surprised, them walking/driving on the left side in these videos even makes me feel highly anxious since we do the reverse here. And you can see the horse usually acts up right there at the first and second of two blind curves where it can't see if a car if coming soon. I bet it would be better if there was a long straight away and it could see what was far ahead and have less fear of sudden collision. It might have had some close calls or scares by cars in the past too.

I've always been obsessed with horses but I too find them intimidating. I hope you can squash that when you have your first experience with one. It's hard but if I can, you can!

Steve, if your theory is correct about this lovely mare trying to protect his owner from oncoming traffic on the left side of the road, I completely understand from her (Polish and my US) perspective. I find the UK's very narrow roads and left sided traffic almost heart stopping. (Though I've never seen accidents on them!) So clearly this mare has been protecting her owner's life. To her very large body awareness, there is just not enough room for the both of them and an oncoming car, and the road to the right drops out of sight beyond the curve, so maybe they could fall off a mountain cliff too, right? Terrifying. And you gave the mare just the experience she needed to get beyond her terror. But I have to say, despite the problems, what an incredible horse to put her body between terror and her owner. She didn't bolt and run away from fright. She encircled her owner's body exhaustively, she reared up against the danger, but just couldn't make her owner understand. Until you unlocked the message. Her efforts may have been uneeded, but this horse is a (s)hero.

I just don't understand why you haven't got a HUGE following.. Anyway we think you're great.. Hi from New Zealand..

What a lovely horse. I really like the owner too, she learned fast and was very effective with Star. That must be gratifying for Steve to help an owner like her.

You are great...I too have worked with “quirky “ horses and through some serious standing back and seeing certain things ...have figured it out...I once work with a huge Hanoverian Mare....thee sweetest ever you could want with a horse (Hunter Jumper) ...you could do “anything “ with this mare that you could think of except approach her with a pair of clippers. Won’t go into all the details and occurrences...but with all the trial and error and a very conscientious fellow groom, all we needed to do was hide the cord over our shoulder and behind our backs and she never flinched....don’t need to explain the rest 😉

Ive watched so many of your videos over the last few months and this is my absolute favourite. That mare has been through so much bless her, and yet shes still so trusting. You can tell its fear that has caused the issues she has. Beautiful work steve, an absolute pleasure to watch

Hi Steve😁 You show by example and EXPLAIN brilliantly why leadership and feet, horse’s and ours, go hand-in-hand. In all the training videos I’ve watched over the years I’ve never witnessed such amazing changes in such “short” (meaning not weeks and months but minutes and hours) training sessions!! I’ve been doing your training with my pushy horse and all I can say is I wish I had found you sooner. Thank you!!!

Maybe that's the direction of Poland in her mind

As usual a remarkable demonstration by Steve. I am quite certain the horse is absolutely not attempting to protect anyone, as sweet as that thought may be. She just had a stuck spot where she was convinced she had to take over. The unknown source of her behavior was irrelevant to the solution.

Just love the videos, no horse only a a black Labrador. Big fan from Michigan in the u.s.a

Omg that reminded me back to my horse sharing days. She was lovely with her with some problems and with me she was an angel. If I would go alone she tries to overpass me, trying to grass, trying to block. That walk who would normaly go like 5-10 min. the first day I spend like 45 min. just correcting and trying to get her so I could lead her probably. The second day it was 20 min. and it got less and less. She was showing some ground work problems because I did nothing with her on the ground jet because of the rule of not training a horse you don't own. I did some respect and obedience exercises what helped but the owner moved on to her new horse she bought. That mare was the first mare what convinced me to consider mares as my personal horses and not only geldings. Sadly had to move away from the horse sharing due to financial reasons.

At the beginning I though she wanted to use her right eye and that’s what she was trying to do. I always used both my horses’ eyes when training, including mounting from the right and leading from the right. It drove some people nuts, but I didn’t care. My horses were ambidextrous lol.

Great video Steve had blacking issues like this with my own mare so great to see how to resolve. Mine does this mainly in the feild especially having some time off due to weather.

4:25 The horse refuses to go off the property…. it sounds immediately to me as if this horse has a terror of being shipped off to yet another owner, and feels mostly safe and comfortable for the first time with Louise on her traditional Welsch property. Steve, I don’t know if you ever dealt with people who actually have a psychic rapport with animals, but if you find a person who truly is connected and accurate, I think in this situation, it could help a lot to understand what happened for the horse, and to get over it. That said, your consistent, firm, clear, steady interactive physical communication with the horses also helps them get over their fears. I don’t know if you’ve addressed this topic, but it would be interesting to hear your experience and opinion of it. Edit: I wrote that in the first moments of watching Star refuse to go onto the road. Having watched the whole video now, it is also a good possibility, as Steve points out the discomfort of walking on the “wrong side of the road”, that the horse was either hit or almost hit by traffic on that side where Star originated. Is it Poland or Holland? Either way, they drive on the right and in Great Britain one drives on the left.

Dolphins are really powerful mammals and I think their sonar helps them see issues in the physical structure of others including humans. What a lovely affirming experience you had with the dolphin! Horses are very sensitive to posture, expression, mood, smell, peripheral goings on. I believe there are many therapeutic riding schools where people can come to get over mental or emotional issues in themselves by interacting with these especially selected horses because of a horses extreme sensitivity! And I believe that every single animal has a consciousness and connects to our consciousness and thoughts. We may not always understand each other, especially since humans often learned from early childhood not to trust their inner perceptions because adults around them so often double talk without realizing they are projecting mixed signals via inner and outer cues. When we can be congruent with what we are thinking and feeling and what we are saying and projecting from our physical selves, then we will find life with animals so much easier to understand and work with.

What a beautiful mare. Awesome work.

Funny first thing I thought was the horse was trying to protect . Also possible she has a vision issue and that side is detriment.

Something must of happen in the past when you lead it . Beautiful horse .

This was a fascinating video and I enjoyed every minute.thanks

She continues to try to get to the side of the road...I wonder if she has slipped and fallen on the road...or a car incident...you are amazing and will figure it out. Has she ever had a foal and watched it leave on a lorry? The owner has done a wonderful job!

Yep, lead mare desperately trying to protect her mum from her perceived danger bless her. I have one who is scared of unknown geldings and will always put herself between me and them, even with them outside the field. Star loves her mum 💕

That horse doesn’t expect being taken away on a rope to go well. Waiting for the next shoe to drop and trying like hell to stay home.

Nice work. Really enjoy these videos so very much.

My first thought was that the horse might be trying to protect the owner from danger up head by blocking her I thought maybe something that had gone on in her previous life might have created that behavior. Not just to protect herself, but also to protect her owner. Probably not the way a horse would think

I started watching you about a month ago…this time, I sensed the horse thinking “I really need to pay attention to this man! “…at the same time, her concern over where she was or where she thought she should be faded to insignificance in comparison,…right at the same time you said you sensed the change in her! (Actually just moments before)

Great Video :-)

So great to see the change!! I have the opposite problem with my lease horse when leaving the premises, he doesn't want to follow at all unless there's another horse with me. On the premises he tries to walk past, nibble and maybe bite, but I've been advised to walk next to his shoulder in case he rears up. He's not my horse so I'm in the dark now....I've been trying out your method and it seems to work🙄

Wow! You really had your challenges with this one. And the horse was the least of them. My heart hurt for this poor baby. I hope all is well with her now.

Looked a real tough nut o crack. Nice horse and lovely to see her owner working with her at the end. Is there somewhere we can find dates of your summer clinics? Do you have spectator places as well as ridden

I am captivated by this mare❤

I don't like humanising animals but if she is ok to ride off the property, but does not want to be led out, what with a history of abuse, I think that she is happy where she is, and is worried that if she is led out she may be going to be loaded on a trailer and taken away from her safe place. BTW thank you for the lovely gift that I received with my order: very kind 😊

This video shows how firmly a horse can get an an idea in their head that may make no sense to us at all. In this case, just going back to the basics of leading - 'I lead; you follow'- worked really well, especially when the mare realized that she had a choice of 'backing up the road' or going 'forward up the road' with the person who was leading her. Backing up was just too much work! Once Star had stopped trying to block her owner and had actually accepted that her owner could lead her safely, the behaviour almost extinguished itself. You could see the horse relax enough to take a few bites of grass and from there on, it was just a matter of 'reminding her' to trust the person on the other end of the lead! You just had to know that this well-fed and generally well-behaved mare would have a 'good' reason for her 'bad' behaviour on the lead. From the scarring and lumps on Star's nose, you know that someone had mishandled the horse during her early training from the ground. The lumpy nose, along with a habit that only showed up when the horse was being handled from the ground pointed to some tough early training in Holland before anyone even tried to ride Star. Good thinking Steve to remember that Star would have been trained to stay on the opposite side of the road in Holland!

Fabulous horse standing like that!

As always, your videos are highly educational. But it would be much better if you remained in the frame and had a proper microphone with a cover because we miss quite a bit of dialog owing to the wind.

Great video!

Could the problem be with the paved road? She seemed ok til you reached the road. Almost like she was trying to stop you from going on the road. Could she have experienced some trauma connected with a paved road?

Loved it!!

Star was trying to protect you from the start but you didn’t realise, as far as she was concerned you were on the wrong side of the road and she had to stop you, she had eight years walking on the right side of the road in Poland she didn’t realise she’s in another country now, Steve it took you a long time to work that one out LOL😂 I look forward to watching you do it on the left-hand side of the road ,

You are doing a fantastic job. I have been following you for a couple months now and have learned quite a bit. I can see the horses gaining respect for you. One thing though...the camera person needs to pay attention to what is being filmed.

I've got a picture of a forest mare with foal walking on the left side of the road. My heart sank the first time I looked at it, because I'm used to driving on the right side of the road, and fear of her getting hurt hit me instantly . It took me a few times looking at it, before I realised the mare was actually on the right side of the road..

Hi all, recently got hooked on your videos, even though I don't own a horse or even know anyone that has any lol. I just wondered if she (the horse), from watching her that maybe she's scared of what she can't see (such as the higher hedge on her right hand side) because I noticed when you were walking her back towards the camera the first time that she was very adamant to keep checking over to her right as you were getting close to her being able to see over the hedge on her right, but on the left for the camera and viers. I don't know if I explained what I picked up on, clearly or not lol or even that maybe it's not what I wonder. Just thought I'd share because I understand that getting to the root of a problem makes things easier for you trying to correct her and help her move past her issues, easier for her mum and hopefully and easier life for her too. Poor baby, the thought of the reasons that's made her so scared 😢.. Love what your able to do Steve 👍🏻 and that you use your gift to make horses lives better 👍🏻. So interesting to watch you at work 👍🏻

Good video. I wish you were in the U.S. what type of footing was in the arena? it looks light and airy,

Very heavy for that horse!

When you work with your horse, you are a herd of two. Horses know that all herds need a leader; if you won't be that leader, your horse will attempt to fill the role. Which they really can't do. So, what's your responsibility?

Hi. Good videos. Suggestion for the videographer: pls consider getting a GoPro to avoid the camera shake and not aimed on your subject. Thanks : )
