- Thank you for watching! I hope you enjoyed this video, because I enjoyed making it for you.
Five years ago I sat on Irish without the bridle for the first time ever.
It changed the way we saw each other and our lives.
Disclaimer: No, we have not only ridden bridleless ever since, but mainly bridleless and less and less with the bridle as time has passed by

This video is a lot of "storytelling" compared to normally, but I personally like this kind of video and hoped I would be able to make it interesting/entertaining/good enough... Please leave a like or/and comment if you liked it to let me know!

This is how it should be.
tentativesuggestion Thank you!
tentativesuggestion If it was that easy for me! My horse could never go bridless. 😅 He loves his bit. I do ride bare back with him sometimes tackless. One day though :)
I agree very much.
Love this, just perfect proof how you don’t need a bunch of tack to ride a horse
That's how I like it❤️
Riding bareback always strengthens the relationship between horse and rider, as you can feel her movements more intensely and she can feel you back and lower legs without a saddle or stirrups in between. And not usimng bridles gives her the freedom ro use her head as she likes it. Therefore horses been ridden bareback and bridleless look much happier - and Irish certainly enjoys feeling you on her back.
And you look great riding her like that - excellent sear and perfect balance - and you body is following her movements very nicely. Thus you are an elegant and attractive rider on a satisfied horse!
Highlights are of course your wonderful levade at 2:18 - the rearing horse and the riding girl in full harmony and perfect position: She certainly knows how to ride a rearing horse.
The extended trot after 2:44, your no-hand canter, the jump at 3:04 and your standing upright on trotting Irish prove the 100 % mutual trust between the two of you.
A wonderful video - of course with thumbs up and subscription. You are such an excellent rider, Lene - thank you for presenting such an enjoyable video.
Heinz Stoffregen Well written!
SixStrides Hi Ava, look at your own channel for a comment.
@@skye_7581 saddles (properly fitted) are not uncomfortable. It is very very simple physics that weight over a larger surface area is less harmful. Even distribution of weight is far far healthier, please look it up. It is not a matter of opinion. I don't want to judge on just one video but I really hope that she isn't riding her like that every time.
@@skye_7581 a lot of assumptions made there lol. Yes, i know that horses were not made to be ridden, ergo, saddles or bareback pads should be used to cushion the horses back and spread the weight more evenly do it doesn't hurt their spine. I don't agree with riding every single day either lol. Like idk what you're getting at? And I'm not sure if it's because you were riding bareback and were too big for the horse or the horse had a painful back anyway, but that isn't a general trend among horses. Yes I listen to the horses I ride. And I also listen to facts. Saddle = better weight distribution = more comfortable
@@skye_7581 ok lol, I can see what it now. You are just inexperienced, and that's ok. Riding a horse bareback once in a while, and with a pad isn't going to kill them, but long term hard bareback riding is going to do damage. And please, dear god, do not base your beliefs on what your instructor thinks. You need to be doing research outside of that and learning from multiple places. Taking advice from only one person can seriously hurt your experience.
Irish is beautiful. Wonderful horsemanship.
This is absolutely amazing!!😍🙏🏻
Marleen Meindersma Thanks a lot!😍
Your bond with Irish is so amazing! ❤️
Adriana Belli Thank you!❤️
Adriana Belli tell u what is amazing, that profile pic
Irish is a well built horse. But with you, she turns into a well built horse with the strength and confidence to move even more correctly while carrying a rider who is well sat. Good job you two!
Thanks a lot!
We need to be reminded that ‘Dressage’ is the training of both the horse and rider, to work together to achieve self carriage and true balance of both parties. If approached with humility, empathy, patience and an understanding of how the rider’s weight and position will effect the horse’s ability to achieve that which we are asking for is firstly a great privilege, as well as an art; with a chunk of science involved. This young woman is well on her way to becoming a very fine rider. If she wants, and is able to analyse what and how she is achieving these results, so as to be able to transfer to other horses with similar, and even better results, she could become a great horse ( and by that I mean horse and rider) trainer. The most difficult thing to learn, for a novice rider, is how to be still, and how to stay in balance with your mount at all times without recourse to pressure on the reins. Do remember that Dressage, ( training) as a sport was invented by the German military, to standardise the training of riders and horses for efficient and effective use in war. It is by its very nature and methodology a strange melding of force, coercion and empathy. I really hope that a proper School of bridleless horsemanship is evolving. That one day, it will be considered the norm, and best practice for all leisure riding.
I always heared : "Omg ride everytime with saddle. The balance is better with a saddle." But now we look at you both. Just great and looks better.
Wow I love this video😍👍🏼 such an amazing development!🖤
dark_soulhorses_ Thank you so much ❤️
You two are the most amazing team that I've ever seen ❤ You are so lucky to have each other,wishing you the best for the future!
Dimitra's World Thank you so much Dimitra ❤️ It means a lot to me!
This is fantastic - kudos to you for what you have accomplished without a bridle. Irish reminds me of my favorite horse ever, Joshua, who was also a buckskin. He was a grade horse. He was super smart and just wanted to please. He did pleasure riding, a little dressage, driving, jumping, trail class and various "tricks". He loved everyone and was a hit in any stables he resided in. We often hacked him around without a bridle, but I wish we had done more of that. It wasn't commonly seen years ago (or maybe today either). Best wishes to you and Irish.
Janet Levy Aww, Joshua sounds like an amazing horse! Thank you for sharing that heartwarming description. Also, thanks a lot for your kind words about Irish and I ;)
Marvelous! Beautiful accomplishments. Just lovely to watch.
What a great pony! I absolutely love how she just forms herself, both beneath you but also when she trots around herself with you leading her from afar. And it is awesome to see how she listens to you as her leader completely! This is great to see, thank you! :)
That is so beautiful. So much talent and trust. You are both so beautiful
Beautiful video, excellent riding and horse communication. Irish obviously loves and respects you. You are both very lucky!
Susan Speicher Thanks a lot! I also feel very lucky 🙏🏻
God gave us animals for a reason, so we can use them for our good, but it is always amazing to tap into the wild and free side of the animals we were given. And sometimes we take this for granted.
New subscriber! Love this! This is how it should be done!
Who would dare to dislike this?! You are truly inspiring
Wow. This video broke something in me wide open. So beautiful❣️
SO cuteeeeeeee!. I loved this. You 2 are awesome together.
I just can't belive in this. This is the most great thing i have every seen!
👧❤️🐎 Thank you both Very heartwarming story Congratulations 🥰
You are my biggest Idol at all! Because of you and Irish, I have begin to ride cordeo with my pony. We have made two shows, one jumpingcompetition and two dressagecompetitions with cordeo, and she almost never have been so happy and great 🙌🐴💞 I always ride bareback and mostly bitless. We mostly use the cordeo, but Sometimes also sidepull. Sometimes, When I try to canter at her with sidepull, she Sometimes don’t want, but When I take the cordeo, she became Happy and these days, the canter have never been better 💪
Thank your Irish and Lene 😍 - Malene and Safira
Malene Langke Sounds amazing! I’m very happy and honored to hear that you feel so inspired by our work 🙏🏻❤️ Thank you!
This is really special bc it shows that trying something and having an open mind, and not having any expectations can really start something new and amazing. ❤️
Thank you! That's so true! 🙏❤
Wow! Im not crying or anything😑😑😑. This is true horsemanship! You go girl!!
That clip at the end was so precious :')
You to are amazing together! I love bitless it’s so much nicer for the horse and rider. Your meant to be together ☺️
I love this, it needs more likes and more views ❤
Wow 😍👏 inspiring
You're amazing, and respectful and responsible, I love that! Despite all that progress and trust, you always wear helmet and that's great xD
Wow it’s amazing
Wow, its so beautiful, it brings me to tears
@💋𝗙**𝗖𝗞 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸 РR0FIL You can just take the bridle off and see how the horse reacts. But do it in a safe environment, like on a paddock or space with a fence. It might take awhile to get the horse used to it, but it will learn :)
Amazing work together, what a partnership!
This tho😍 those trot steps are AMAZING
I was really surprised by your explanation in the beginning, i would not have thought it went this way XD i really like your honesty and open mindness, and i admire your work as a tight knit team!
Haha, you’re not alone - not many people think that we’ve ever been anything but best friends and everyone gets very surprised when they hear the truth! Especially all the stories where Irish bites me, throws me off, grabs my leg and drags me off of her back and so on...
I’m very happy to hear that, since all the things you mentioned are things I focus on and they play a big role in our lives :D Thanks!
Wow that is amazing. I cried💗. That is such an amazing connection you have with irish🐎❤️
Awesome video. You and your horse have such a bond. You look like a great team😊🐎💖your such a good rider. My horse would buck me off if I rode her tackless!
This is beautiful
incredible😱
Me: wow it’s impressive how much darker Irish gets in the winter
Also me: has a blue roan that is super light in the summer and practically black in the winter....
wow. just wow😍
Perfect!!!!
Finny and Friends Thanks a lot!!
amazing! I really love horses and spending time follow my friends to the stable but isn't allowed to ride for my parents.. it's kinda sad uk cause i love be in the stable just spending my time on them but want to try something more difficult as riding a horse. I'll keep wish and one day maybe
How did you get her into her frame without going on the bit? Amazing job too!
Paloma Ronca that is quite normal. Your bit is not the thing that should get her down. A bridle just gives a bit of pressure that helps with keeping it all together.
Wow! She improved so much and you have an amazing seat!!
Omg LOve you girl and a lot of people say that you need bits to do stuff like that girl nahh you are super luv u
How I love watching this 😍 you two did grow so much TOGETHER during the past years, just wow 😍
Lene det der er helt SINDSYGT!! Sikke en rejse i to har været igennem, og sikke et resultat!! I er så mega dygtige og seje, jeg er STOLT af jer!! I er fantastiske! Ugh fik kuldgysninger da du stod på hende, et klip du vidst aldrig har vidt før (har set dig stå men ikke præcis det klipk) Det ser så godt ud! I to har noget meget få har❤️❤️
Isabella Sofia Flensted Årrh, tusind mange tak - det gør mig virkelig glad at læse ❤️
Nej, det klip har jeg vist aldrig brugt før, men jeg har også kigget godt efter en masse forskellige, samtidig med at hvert klip stadig også skulle have en vis betydning for mig 🙏🏻
It Looks so elegant without a bridle... you‘re amazing😭😍❤️
This just got more and more amazing xxx so proud xx also how did you get that trot?
Wow.😍
What a beautiful team you two are... wow..
Love this video! Your bond with Irish is so inspirational.
That was a great edit😊😊😊
Keep up the good work 😋
True Stoney Thank you! I’m very happy to hear that 😁🙏🏻
Beautiful video, the bond between you is so clear and also I love your hair😂🖤
This is amazing! Thanks for sharing!
That's pretty awesome. I'd like to think that one of my horses could do that, but none of them have any jumping ability other than my stallion, who injured his hock as a yearling and can't turn that way at a lope, but is otherwise fine on it. He could have jumped if he hadn't. He's super lazy and I just sit on him all the time. He can be ridden bareback with a halter and rope around mares even in breeding season. I do mostly western riding, so my horses are more geared towards a few specific events, mostly halter, roping, and reining lines. One of the mares, one with reining lines, is 16 and about to foal. She has been my playday/rodeo/county fair partner. SHe runs barrels, poles, flags, rings, and stakes plus can calm down enough to do some trail and western pleasure. Since she is pregnant now and will need time off to recover, I broke her now 5 year old daughter in September. Leilani has been great. She doesn't next rein yet, but she steers, stops, backs, and is almost ready to haul to barrel races. She'll easily be ready for this spring and summer. I don't know the first thing about teaching a horse to neckrein, so I probably wouldn't have much luck teaching her to ride bridleless, but I might with the yearling I'm working with to show in halter and showmansbip. Love the color of your girl by the way. Very pretty. I might have one like her born this year, as leat, colorwise. I think the legs will end up longer though since the parents both have long legs. Good luck in the future! I hope Irish lives a long and happy life with you!
I just hope you know how lucky you are ❤ Have fun!
You guys are an amazing team!!!
Perfect! ❤️
sss seee Thank you ❤️
This is incredible!! Such an inspiration 🥰

🖤🖤🖤
Love it❤️❤️
You two are so inspiring ❤😍💫
This is more then beautiful 😍
Amazing 😍😍😍
You made a self-carriage. So cool.
I love people who respect the true nature of a horse and riding bareback is very hard to do its a true talent, also the fact you don't use a bridle with a bit and you just use neck ropes etc, I don't mind if people use bits I mean there are so many different types of bits for example leather bits, btw for some reason your name sounds so danish xD!
Wow! 🙏🙏🙏☘️☀️👌👌🤗😍❤️💚💚
You two are soo talented!!!!!
This is INSPIRATIONAL xxx 🥰😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Beautiful 👍

Tusind tak, det er jeg glad for at høre :D
Your awesome😍🐴👌
awwwww
Nøj en video, den får en til at se det lyse i hvis man føler at det står stille! Meget inspirerende
3:04 - 3:08 that balance thooooo
This is something I would love to try this with my boy. When you went to a neck rope did you just take the bridel of or did you do it gradually? Thanks
If the horse was so lazy she probably took it off just like that.
I started with taking off the saddle but using a halter with a rope for reins, because one of my horses has got a bit of a wild side.
You should start somewhere in your arena/paddock/field where your horse is most easy, for example my wild horse can sprint to the gate out of nowhere so I we stayed at the gate the first few times. My pony is the sweetest, so I just jumped on and taught him how to turn with only a rope or completely tackless. Good luck!
i find it amazing to see how you have such a strong band whit your horse 🥰😍🦄
sorry for my english btw i’m dutch😅🇳🇱
Irish is so beautiful I wish I had a horse like her well actually wish I just had a horse or even a mini horse that would be fun🐴😔🥰😁👍🏼
Although you are light putting a pad on the horses back does protect their spineand can place your weight over rather than directly on the spine. But yea well done
How do you get her to go so good in frame ??
😱😱😱
My KWPN mare walks best bridleless. M dressage (dont know what class that is in UK/USA). But I ride her just the same way with a bridle. Does not change frame at all; how it should be.
@тαρ мє αи∂ ѕєχ ωιтн мє Mia haha I do😂 I have a young ex racer (gelding) atm and he is on a simple, light bit and we work bitless as well. Just do what works best!
Holaa ,saludos desde españa
Can you do a video of your journey with her❤️
