That was weird what why did she throw her front right out like that it was like she was just I don't know waving at somebody like you said that was interesting 😂
Good afternoon everyone! Update on Regina. She qualified & competed at 2022 USDF Region 9 championships at training level finishing 8th. The next weekend she was champion at 3’3” junior jumpers. Thank you Ryan!!
I am looking forward to Part 2, She is an absolutely stunning mare and I love a horse with a lot of spirit, especially in competitions. She will be magnificent once she learns how to manage her emotions in unfamiliar settings and to trust in her owner’s leadership.
She is absolutely beautiful and I think she is beginning to understand what you want from her and she is relaxing more she's very intelligent absolutely and thank you for repeating the owner's questions because we absolutely cannot hear her I'm sure we all appreciate that as we were only getting half of the conversation so thank you again ✌🏻
Put owners' dialog on screen as their speaking. That why we can just stay in the present as if we are standing there involved in conversation also. thx for your videos.
Beautiful mare. Nice to see Ryan help her pretty quickly. I’m sure she will enjoy life much more when she can find a connection and sense of feeling safe.
Woah, I wish I knew this a couple of years ago! This mare is very similar to mine. Now retired from competing but will deliver her second offspring in a week or so. Her first foal is one year old and like his mother he puts very much attention to the sorrounding. 🙏
Great news Dawn! The tools we learned with Ryan are working! Regina is gaining confidence and connection. She will always be a dominant mare and I think every human in her life will need these tools to maintain leadership but we feel safe with her away from home and have tools when we need them. Thank you Ryan!!!!
I am in Germany. I love your videos and the way you handle horses. When horses here are nervous they can even do Piaffe on the hand. The way she behaves in the video is "a little bit" nervous. Thats the reason why I have a Haflinger. He just moves when its really worth it and he might not spend to much energy on other things...😉
Hello Yvonne, fellow Haflinger owner here in United States, California. I completely agree, my girl is the best! She never says “NO” but still has a little spirit “spicy nature” I adore 💯🙏💕
I saw that she had an English saddle on in the beginning of the video and got excited, thinking "Oooh are we gonna get to see Ryan ride English?" You should do a video where you ride English for fun sometime, keeping the hat and the chaps and everything!
My comment on the small circle work (at all gaits). I was confused about this for a long time because of how it was described by different trainers depending on how they used it. Because the inside hind leg steps under the horse, it is an introduction to engagement. But because the haunches also fall out (do not stay aligned with the front legs as in a pirouette) it is also a source of disengagement. So it’s an intermediate movement that is half of the one and half of the other and is a valuable exercise for improving balance and connection in both a physical and emotional sense. It should be used with the discretion that comes with skill and experience. I’m enjoying your videos Ryan. They are a fresh take on horsemanship that may be safer for the horses. I would emphasize for your viewers that you have complete control of your emotions when you’re training. No anger or frustration. No fear. Limited humor as it is a distraction. All business. No confusion. Self control and confidence for a lasting impression on the mind of the horse.
If I take a horse on the trail and he doesn't call goodbye to his friends, then I know that we are a herd of two. If he does call, then there is work to do. I learn so much from your videos. Thank you!
Such a beautiful and smart horse. You are a great trainer. Love how you give so much detail in reading a horse and the reasoning in doing what you do to get the desired actions and behaviors.
Good to see this was filmed on a windy day. Noticed that the intensity you read into her reactions was scaled to whether the wind was up or down at the time.
I could of used this video when I showed Nova he was a nine at shows and home. HA HA At shows it was either blue ribbon or wanting a glass of wine when I got home. He was a real beauty. What a personality. I like your methods getting back to horse sense.
I don't have a horse. I haven't since I was a kid but I love watching you train. I can see you telling her your concern is what I am telling you. Telling her you are the leader. Stunning mare.
I had a similar horse, calm as a cucumber at home or familiar environments, but his trigger was other horses running around (riding or leading him past a paddock of other horses was very dangerous!). Of course the answer was getting his attention back on me, and once he was really good at groundwork at home, the only way to tackle his issue was lead him out past paddocks of other horses running around. He would totally ignore me, turn into a prancing, snorting. rearing dragon haha. Lots of flag, disengaging, backing etc until I finally became more important to him than the other horses... he got over it but I still have nightmares about my time with that particular horse
Visible difference already in that short spacr of time. It's just about knowing the correct tools to use and with you having your wife doing dressage and being an equine physio you sure as hell know what's the best way to tackle these problems. The horse is beautiful and I'm sure with your help and the owners obvious commitment things will get sorted. Can't wait for second video. Wish I'd seen and been able to implement these strategies when I used to ride years and years ago. It would have been so much more enjoyable for horse and rider. Amazing video for people to access and anyone living in a reasonable distance to your facility should definitely book in to use you. Thank Ryan for all uou give to others.👏👏👏💟👏👏👏
Ryan I have no horse experience but consume your videos for overall animal behavior interest (mostly for my dog) and I'm loving it. Your YT format is really good, it's great to start and end with talking with clients on the issue, their goals and aspirations, and your thoughts on the problem. The cutaways have much improved and the camera work is great. The quality is high which is important and the videos all have a lot of content. Also having the little taste of the video at the start is good. Having a mic on the owner will help with us hearing their comments (but their volume should be down and shouldn't drown you out). Thanks for putting this out!
I had one of those 8/9 horses. You are right. She was a bit hard to manage but when she was all put together she was unbeatable. I had to maintain a very structured routine with her and she was fine but if not… watch out… you were in for a bad day.
Welcome to Texas! I love the way you work with and apply pressure/release, very precise. My OTTB is coming back into handling/work after an injury and has all these emotional behaviors at home I learned a lot from this video and looking forward to part 2.
I feel her I bought a fabulous horse he’s got every button his buttons have buttons but he’s just too strong for me I’m 66 years old in the arena he’s fine but on the trail he’s scary stuff I wish you lived closer because I need help
That horse is freaking gorgeous and she has such an elegant way of moving. I'd sure go the extra mile for her! One question, did the owner do a drug screen when she bought her?
I thought that as well because she was calm leaving and traveling to her place. It could be new owner though that she hasn't connected to so therefore turned into an idiot at shows and traveling w/o herd buddies
I purchased her as a 4 yo after only 2 weeks under saddle. She came from an Amish breeder. I was not concerned about any sedation. She is super-quiet & lazy at home. I acquired my first Dutch-bred two years ago. They are much more spirited than TBs & quarters. I have learned a lot but needed more tools. The continuous horsemanship journey. Thank you Ryan!
This is so interesting! I love the idea that you must be your horses buddy when his buddies are not there. I have a mare that gets nervous without her donkey buddy. She goes from completely zen to time bomb especially when riding her. I would love her to just trust me...
Noooooo part two can’t wait to get fiber internet thank you for the guidance in horsemanship best trainer I have on my watch list. Ryan,Buck,Warwick,Craig Cameron your on top so thank you can’t wait to become a patron
Is it me or is it true that the more beautiful a horse is, the more hot headed they are! Its like they know they got the looks and carry a proud crown that's hard to know down a notch.
Ryan I love your videos and horse training. Hint for the Video guy…on shots like This take the camera off automatic on the exposure. The. Automatic light meter keeps jumping and changing the light. Set the light exposure on the Horse and Ryan. It will be less distracting.
I was so confused - they were standing next to this much smaller horse when they were talking. When they brought the mare out of the trailer, I was like, “Oh, ok.” Lol! 😂😂😂
I can actually hear her in this video. I have been bingeing and watched a few where I wish they also would have had a microphone or one available to them
My problem is almost the same…but when my horse became tense and head high and disconnected then my heart beats are coming high too… so it’s difficult for me to reconnect….i think im a little afraid of him in these circumstances and when im riding im not feeling safe.
Where's part 2 ? ... I can't stand the suspense ... lol .. I really want to know how this went .. I have a similar problem horse ... getting ideas for strategy and tools from someone like Ryan would be a huge help ..
she is a young minded horse. shes going to mature slower than other horses. she just needs time to grow up. some dont mature physically and mentaly until they are 8 or 9 it isnt a fault in them. it just is. just keep working with them especially ground work. paying attention to handler and softening, suppling. giving them new experiences safely while building trust and helping them to have self control.
I love true horse people, they never blame the horse and the horse always comes first ( of course everyone's safety is ALWAYS first) so the outcome is usually postive.
Just watched up to 6:35 min ( intro). What " hit" me was that owner wanted to "help horse" be less reactive (I fo get that)- my feeling was owner might need some help to read horse better and be more aware of where she is ( mental, physical). Looking forward to watching more later.
my horse is a nutcase when heading back home when riding from the house and when he has to ride with a large group of horses. I think the problem at home is that he has finally found his safe haven and doesn't want to leave.
Ryan do you have a video about the different exercises to do when you leading, I have a 6 month foal that start to lead but I want to explain her think to do
@@bethje30 A nervous horse in a new environment when scared can spook and bolt suddenly. If a puny human is in the way they're just a minor obstacle. It doesn't take a mean horse, a horse always tries to save itself first, and devil take the hindmost.
I kinda have the same problem,my guy will do pretty much everything I ask of him until I get to the show or even a trail ride with more than a dozen horses then he freaks not even rideable and to be honest I have no idea what to do with him I thought this video would help but I don’t think so. I do enjoy your videos Ryan
I can tell you it does work!!! We have shown since this session. We were able to use these tools to keep her in human-focused headspace. She showed well - even 3rd in equitation over fences
The flag stick. yes, I was told it was not allowed at a clinic site for dressage. Come on some dressage ladies, grow up a bit and learn how to do something besides ride. My horse was re trained with a flag stick, and for while he focused on that while leading, to help him not focus on everything around him. That was a baby step for ADD but it really helped him initially. Now if we have to go somewhere noisy, etc, if I bring out the flag stick, while leading he calms down.
CJ you are right, the English-riding world can be a bit pretentious and closed-minded to other training approaches. You should have seen the looks I got when circling Regina at a show when she misbehaved. However, they also saw the immediate improvement…hopefully others will benefit from this English rider courageous enough to reach outside our little circle for help 😀 Thank you Ryan!!!

Nice horse
Just watched up to 6:35 min ( intro). What " hit" me was that owner wanted to "help horse" be less reactive (I fo get that)- my feeling was owner might need some help to read horse better and be more aware of where she is ( mental, physical).
Looking forward to watching more later.
my horse is a nutcase when heading back home when riding from the house and when he has to ride with a large group of horses. I think the problem at home is that he has finally found his safe haven and doesn't want to leave.
she moves so gracefully
When part 2 of the mare is Unpredictable at shows
Excellent horsemanship lessons.
Heart rates sync? Did not know this.
I so glad she’s not my horse. I had one as a teenager and that was enough. Pretty but wild.
I got an OTTB and had little skill riding. The horse never bucked or took off.
Ryan do you have a video about the different exercises to do when you leading, I have a 6 month foal that start to lead but I want to explain her think to do
Makes me very nervous when Ryan turns his back on a new horse. She's in an unfamiliar environment, it's windy, and she's pretty high.
Don’t worry I’m a professional 😀👌
@@ryanrosehorsemanship Just remember, there are old horse trainers, and there are bold horse trainers, but there are no old, bold horse trainers😳
Its fine, she is nervous not agressive or mean.
