Esme. I am 39 and you are one of my idols and an inspiration to me to keep doing my best as an equestrian. I have learnt so much from you and your beautiful horses. Thank you! You are amazing! Xxx
Esme is such an inspiration…the love she has for all animals, from Guinea pigs, hens, donkeys, ponies, to horses..she gets up at a”oh my god” o’clock to look after them. 🥰
Seeing you talk about monetization and the stresses of a full time youtube job makes me feel really comforted. I am a full time Horse Game youtuber (very niche) so the unstable nature of this job can be scary at times, but I still feel super lucky to do what I do! Thank you Esme for this amazing video xxx
I love your horses you do so much for your horses maybe if you could find some people you could teach them lessons because I love your videos and they’re amazing one day if I went to England maybe you could teach me some lessons and ride Casper
I’ve always had a passion for horses and always loved to ride but watching your videos really grew that passion! Your such a big inspiration to all the people who maybe aren’t as fortunate to ride or just started off. Thank you so much for everything you do! You should very proud of yourself 😊👏🏻
Esme is absolutely amazing!! She's helped build my confidence SO much!!! I'm alot more confident as a rider thanks to you esme!! You've helped ALOT of people!!
Esme: I am so grateful Me: we are so grateful that you started this channel when ever I am sad or having a bad day I watch you and I become happy and whenever I am riding I always think of you! You inspired me and helped me how do take care of a horse i just kept thinking of you! Tysm Esme I love you!
I’ve been riding for 5 years now and I love animals. When I was 7 I part loaned 3 shetlands and thats when I found Esme. I would come home and I would just watch Esme. The beginner series really helped me. Esme has helped so many people. Esme is my absolute idol and she takes care of her horses so well. Well done Esme.
Whenever I need a bit of inspiration I go back to Esme’s old riding story I must’ve watched it at least 20 times now, I remember eating it when it first came out and I still am following Esme right up until today ❤️
Esme i watch you everyday and you have made my confidence grow with riding and you are inspiring lots of people so thank you Esme and if you are having a bad day remember that we are here for you!
No one in my family rides horses either and I didn’t start riding until I was 11 and I’m 12 now, your such a massive inspiration! I’ve just started jumping which is super exiting 💗💗
Thank you so much for the help over the years. I got my first horse, and it reminded me of you and casper. I was very inexperienced and bought a very green horse. As you said, a recipe for disaster! But, I loved her, she was a lovely horse but very difficult. I also got the talk when my parents were thinking of selling her. I watched your videos and watched your tutorials and it helped me so much. I never got the type of riding school that told you about the care of horses, so you helped me so much. Thank you. You have helped so many people.
Esme, I’m a riding school proprietor and I have first hand experience of exactly how much you inspire new riders. Keep doing what you’re doing so well. You’re so humbling and awesome! X
Esme you deserve everything you have! Your an inspiration and I'm sure everyone that watches you thinks the same. You are so kind and caring and horses are the luckiest, most loved animals in this world! Thank you for everything you do! Xx
Esme, this video is amazing. I’m so glad you are still here making videos and really thriving. You’ve inspired so many people so don’t let those mean comments knock you down. You’ve turned me into a grey, and gelding type of girl! I hope your channel keeps growing and people see how much you care for you animals and how much hard work goes into your job. Thank you for being a UA-camr and inspiring so many people to do what you do. Much love, Avery ❤️
I'm all the way from Australia and I have gotten back into riding after having a break for 4 years, I used to have a friend that had a horse but we drifted apart and I couldn't ride anymore. Since watching Esme's videos I have fallen back in love with riding and I'm only weeks away from owning my very first horse. So from the bottom of my heart Esme, I thank you so much❤❤❤❤
I’m in Australia too. I did lessons & had my own pony as a child. Had to sell my pony as we had to move to the city. Fast forward about 30yrs and I just started riding lessons again! Have had 3 lessons so far. My dream is to have a horse again
I have been watching you for the last 5 years and I honestly can't thank you enough! You have inspired me and given me the confidence to continue my riding journey! I started riding 7 years ago and when I found your channel, I was so inspired by your work and riding and I have watched you ever since! I have had some confidence nocks in the past, but watching your videos has helped me to never give up and to keep working on my mistakes. Your my favourite UA-camr and I again can't thank you enough! I have loved watching you and Casper progress together and have loved watching all the funny vlogs with funny Mickey clips. I have also loved watching you and Joey progress and improve the past 2 years and have loved watching Joey and Duke grow! Your such an amazing rider and your such an inspiration ❤️
I started riding just before the pandemic and I fell in love with it. I soon after had to stop because of lockdown. Your videos helped me stay in touch with horses and riding. Thank you Esme for being such a amazing person on UA-cam! love you!
hey Esme im a young girl and I have grew up loving horses like you! my first horse ride was when I was about 5-6 and I got to get lead on a horse and that's when I fell involve with it, I rescently went on a plane to cairns where I also had a ride and got lead and it was so fun!! after I got back home from that holiday I started watching you and you have helped me to learns soooo much, and I am very excited to start lessons as soon as possible!
I started riding lessons a few years ago and would have never been where I am now without your videos. Coming from a very non-equestrian background it has always been a challenge to navigate the riding industry when it comes to shows, caring for horses, and so much more. My dream is to own horses, and I would have never been anywhere close to where I am now without you. You and your horses are so amazing! I hope you always keep making videos!!! XXX
I am 13, and your videos have inspired me so much! By watching your videos I have begun to love horses more than ever. I am currently saving up to start taking riding lessons soon. Thank you for uploading your videos to youtube, you are my idol!
I had my first horse riding lesson last week I would of never of thought I would be saying that it’s my favourite sport, I think I wouldn’t of ever gotten into the sport unless I wouldn’t of watched ur videos, your so inspiring keep up the amazing work!!
hi Esme i am 11 years old and I started riding because of u. In the last 2 years i have learned how to walk trot canter jump and if I never came across u on youtube i would not be where i am today thank u so much xxx Megan
I got out of the equestrian world because of the ugly barn/witches people and now I am back into it at 70 years old because of "This Esme".Thanks to you for being true to yourself and I am so grateful to God/YAH but I have a dog and cat also, no donkeys yet. Thank you for being you!Much hope and blessings for your future and someday a gold medal. Thank you for keeping your boys, they are part of the family.
I started riding when I was 9 years old now I am 14. Before me knowing horse riding was a sport, one of your videos popped up and that made me start riding, so thanks Esme.
This made me a little emotional! You are such an inspiring person, and you keep me motivated in my riding everyday. Thanks for everything you do for us xx
One of my favourite things about you Esme is how you never gave up on Casper, even after all those falls you just hopped back on, now Casper is a super looking horse and you have a beautiful relationship just as you do with all your boys, ❤️❤️
Esme I am 61 years old and not an equestrian but I thoroughly enjoy your channel and I love to see you with the horses. You are so personable and I can see the love you have for horses and they look so happy and content. I also love the house renovations. Keep doing what you are doing and I will keep watching xx
Esme, the night before you posted this I had a dream that I met you and I was literally crying tears of joy!!! I look up to you so much and you are 100% my favorite UA-camr!!! I hope your having a great day!❤️❤️❤️
i just want to say ive been really encouraged to start riding from your videos esme which has led to me finding my passion ive only been riding for a while but thanks to you i have been able to ace my canter by watching you so thanks so much for that
To This esme I’ve been a long journey although my account was made in July of this year I watched you before I had this account and you really made my days 100x better you don’t know how much it means to me. I absolutely love seeing the horses and you be so happy for even though you’ve been trough a lot, I’ve been looking up to you for so long and you are my biggest idol I’d love to see you in person but I can’t because issues and sickness You were the reason I started riding I’d watch your “beginner series” and it has helped me a lot you’ve taught me so much I didn’t even know how to fix stirrups until I found you Thank you so so much for making me smile and much love from Norway❤️😊
I started riding horses before I found out about your channel, but when I found myself unmotivated because I wasn't progressing in my riding classes, so much so that I thought about stopping riding, I watched your videos and began to regain that motivation to learn to improve and ride horse with confidence.
Not me about to ball my eyes out at this video. Super proud of you Emse, you’ve done so so much for the equestrian community and you should be very proud of yourself :)
You have navigated some dicey waters in talking about employing your dad, Esme, and I will say brilliantly done. I applaud you for realizing the perils that come with celebrity and influence. The trust that you share with your dad is precious, and you are fortunate to be aware of it in your youth. You are wise and feisty, Esme. Thank you for sharing! 💜🙏
Thank you so much esme for putting so much time into these videos u made me smile after I found out my favorite horse had to be put down so thanks for everything❤
I love watching your vids i started riding after watching you on UA-cam (my mom and dad are not from a horsey backround) and making my channel because of you. Your so inspirational keep it up
this video has encouraged me so much to make videos and actually post them on my youtube channel i was scared about what people would think but know im just going to ignore what other people think of my videos. thanks so esme for being an inspiration to so many equestrians all over the world.
Omg Esme you’ve grown so much I’m so proud that you didn’t care about the people that bullied you I met you at the international horse show and I’m so grateful I got to meet you and I was shaking I was so glad to have the opportunity to meet you thankyou for uploading videos for us to watch and entertain us your the best xx 😘
Esme this story is absoultely heartwarming! All the work you put in is amazing!! You have changed so many lives either it's Animals or People's. You are an amazing person in and out. This world needs more people like you. You are the person that tries to bring out the best to world when it's not going so great! And i am so proud of you!!! Personally for me the part with getting riding accessible for everyone touched me alot because it's really a struggle for some people that don't have that much money or having other problems that they can't afford to ride horses. It is sad to see people that have so much potential can't do what they want because of the Money Factor. And Unfortunately the equestrian world is quite expensive... I really hope your Dream's come true!!! Keep doing what your doing! ❤💖
Thank-you for sharing this with all of us I’m glad you have gained more confidence and really glad you have become equestrian because I watch your videos all day everyday love you Esme ❤️
Esme you are the reason why I have such a love for horses . When I was very young like 5 I wanted to be a jockey. I didn't know that showjumping was a thing. When I was about 8 I said I HATED HORSES . Crazy I know . I saw your Chanel and fell in love . And that's where I am now . Horses are my life . You made my life better . ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think it's crazy when I see my favourite horsey youtubers riding story.I find it amazing how you started off a rider just like me. my dream is to become a horsey youtuber just like you. I have been watching since 2019. 😁Your UA-cam channle has come on so much since 2015 I also love how mickey and casper have been bffs since the beginning. love your vids💜
Your absolutely amazing esme and your story has helped alot of people!! This is how far you can go if you keep trying don't give up guys! My mom had a hard horse life but right now we're doing great!! It's gonna be hard but stick in there!! Can I plz get pinned
My best friend Molly had been riding for years because of you. She was so obsessed that I started to watch you too...and the obsession caught on. I'm so happy with my horsey life and you honest are 99%of why it exists! Xxx
Esme you have helped me so much as an equestrian ,you got me into riding and it has been the most amazing experience i have been riding for a while now and at the moment i am looking after and riding unbroken ponies and you have helped me on the way by giving me not only riding experiance but experiance in pony care to! i look up to you and i love the channel. thank you x
Hi Esme!! I love your channel and all your equines 💕 I hope you are all doing well And I am so happy to have another amazing video to watch!! I’ll be watching soon! 🥰 Please tell your horses that they are amazing
I started riding horses when I was seven and you were a huge inspiration to me once I first watch one of your videos. I remember I was just the tiny little kid who was barely able to jump cross rails. But now I’m 12 i’m currently trying to find a horse to take me to Grand Prix just know how much you inspire people and how well loved you are by your viewers❤️❤️❤️
you've progressed so much, and so has casper. i cant believe a few years ago he was bucking you off most rides. hes unrecognisable, you guys are remarkable now. well done esme ❤️
Aww hearing you talk about you and your dad working together got me so emotional haha I got chatting to him at Hickstead about a lot of the things you've now opened up about in this video and it's just so inspirational to hear about that dedication, team work and passion behind the scenes that brings your UA-cam channel to life! I was blown away seeing you greeting your very first meet and greet fans first thing in the morning at Hickstead and seeing you again towards the end of the day with that same enthusiasm and kindness towards every single person. You truly are an amazing person Esme and you deserve absolutely everything that comes your way! UA-cam has been a part of my life since I was a teenager too and I have always had a love and passion for animals, especially horses, since a young age despite having a non-horsey family so hearing your story is so relatable. You're amazing and don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise!
I used to ride when I was a kid and have always loved horses and the community but I had stopped for around 7-9 years, after discovering your videos I am so happy to say that I have started my passion up again and am starting the process of working with horses as a career!!!!! Thank you so much Esme❤️❤️❤️
Your kind heart, positivity and the love for animals along with determination and hard work has made you the best role model for any kid, teenager and adult. You have inspired so many people to fulfill your dreams, given so much more confidence while working with horses. YOU are amazing! ❤️love from Estonia😊
The most impressive aspect of you and your channel is that you are humble, kind, hardworking and wholesome. Here’s to many many more years of your success.
Esme, I am now 15 and I have been watching your videos for a long time now! Mt riding story has really grown because of you! You are my inspiration today and forever! I cant believe how much my confidence has grown because of you. I have a very young Thoroughbred and your perseverance and courage has helped me everyday. I am also dyslexic and to know you an amazing rider and person have been able to achieve such great things, It gives me hope that I too can become what I can be by working hard. I love you so much -x Emilia ❤
I have had my horse about 4 years but i lost interest (i don't know why) in riding, but i watched your videos, you gave me energy and motivation. Thank you Esme it means so much to me that you do this!❤
I just wanted you to know Esme, that even if you don’t post for a month, I will always watch your videos and be very excited when you start posting again. Ik viewers cant control that, but I always will love your channel!
I'm so greatful for you Esme 💛 I first watched your UA-cam videos in 2018, when a lot changed in my life and riding was the only regular thing. Since then I've aspired to become an equine physio! This year I'll be starting Uni and hearing how you've grown in confidence has helped me be brave enough to take this step! Although I'm not as lucky to own horses or have as much experience, it's what I love 💖 Seeing you progress over the years really inspires me and I'm so glad your channel is going strong, but still chatting on such a personal level! Keep doing what your doing, because as long as you love it we live it! 💗
I’ve been expert UA-camr for over 20 years; in all my tenure on this royal reel I take my hat off for ThisEsme. She’s stunning, she’s fabulous, and she’s marvelous as just one person (plus cameraman). I (along with everybody else) look forward to seeing more of this beautiful pasture blossom. A charm all on her own; as if the horses weren’t enough… This community welcomes you with fixed eyes and open hearts. Bravo Ezmara Ezzie & Esme 👏🏻. The anticipation for her content is as exhilarating as the ride itself. Here’s to many more years of smooth strides of success for you & your family my dear. ☺️😌😃
Hi Esme I,d like to say a huge Thankyou to you for encouraging my daughter who found your you tube channel last year and since November last year started riding and has been inspired so much.We never miss a video as we love them.Keep up the wonderful work you do ..your amazing 🥰
I definitely teared up watching this. I’ve been watching your channel since around 2017, near the beginning, and I’m so proud of you Esme. I’m just a few years younger than you and I remember growing up watching your videos and just being so impressed by what a kind soul you seemed like and your genuine love for horses. Watching you evolve over the years as I watch myself evolve, especially in my riding and maturing personally, has been a huge comfort. Thank you for everything.
I have been watching This Esme since 2020 and ever since then I showed your videos to my parents and they finally let me start riding lessons. I already knew how to tack up thanks to your videos. You are my idol. I love you so much. Xx
I started riding because of you I started watching you in 2018 and still watch your videos today I've now been riding for 8 months Iand I can now jump so happy with my progress and I could not have done it with out watching you thank you xxx
i started horse riding because of you, i was on youtube one day and saw ur video and clicked on it thats was the best decision i have ever made thank you esme you have changed my life and i owe you everything for it you deserve millions of followers you are amazing x
Esme your such an inspiration! Whenever I have a bad day and feel like I will never improve in my equestrian journey I watch your videos and feel better! You bring me so much joy and show me what’s it’s like to be a equestrian! Thank you so much for making videos! Your amazing!! ❤️
I started riding at my local barn because of you!!!! I begged my parents for months for a horse but I finally realized they are a lot of money. So I’m super grateful to be riding at river ranch! Thank you soooo much for your content! Love your videos!!!
After my mare passed in 2020, I couldn't ride anymore. We were moving to a new area for my partner's job and I didn't have the money for lessons much less a lease on top of that. Being able to watch your videos helped me get some "horsey time". I was your age in the era where people overworked their horses for social media posts and people showed off by being rough and "dominating" their horses. Seeing your videos where you're gentle and reasonable with your horses was very refreshing. Looking forward to see where life continues to take you
Esme you are a beautiful soul and an inspiration to all young and old. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and I think how wonderful to have that relationship with your dad to work together . At 57 yrs I have watched you from the beginning and loved watching you and your channel grow sweetheart xxxx
I found your channel, when I was getting back into riding in my 30’s after a 15 year break. Such a cosy comforting channel and podcast. Always love to come here after a long work day.
I feel like I owe you the world. Because your videos helped me convince my non horsey parents to get me my first ever horse. Which I have now had for almost 2 years. Thank you so so much Esme
Esme, a lot of your fans, including me, would not be where we are with out you!! From simple things like learning everything about matchy-matchy, to knowing its ok to have confidence knocks and not getting everything perfect the first time. Thank you for running such an amazing and honest channel! We all love you!!!
I don’t usually watch certain UA-camrs for along time but I’ve been here since 200k (on a different account) I keep coming back to this channel and never get bored of your videos!
Esme seems very kind. Honestly there's so many people in the horse world in general that don't deserve horses but have them and it sounds incredibly unfair sometimes, but I think Esme is one of those people who knows they're lucky but that truly deserves it. Keep it up! :)
When I was younger I always wanted to ride but when I started watching your videos I wanted to ride more then ever, so thank you for being the person that started me in such an amazing sport!! I love you
I have only been watching the channel for about a year and she has taught me so much she is one of the reasons of why I joined a competitive team and she helps me learn more things so I can apply them to my riding. Thank you Esme
I'm 15 years old and I quit riding two years ago and then I started watching your videos two months later I start riding again now I'm happier than ever. I wanted to say a massive thank you and also kisses from Greece 🐴🇬🇷
Hi, my oldest daughter fell off her fav pony a few weeks ago and she got back on this week and she says it because of watching this video! Thank you soooo much Esme. We love you!
I remember first finding Esme's channel between 2018-2019, when I first started to get riding lessons, and I learned a lot! The lessons only taught be to ride, and none of the other important stuff, so she's taught me so much! And seeing this made me tear up a bit, seeing how far she's come since I started watching.
This is so touching. I’m only eleven and I’m on my first loan and I’m improving so much with her and by watching you. Your proving to people to enjoy life and take no notice of the people who tell you what you can do and can’t do. Your an inspection to so many people. I think loads would agree ❤️🥰
As someone who started watching your videos in late 2019 and started riding in October 2020 your a huge inspiration and I’m so proud of how far you’ve come
Esme, you are such a wonderful inspiring person. Please take care of yourself, especially your mental health. Your journey is amazing and unique to you and that’s beautiful. 💕
I love the fact you have such a supportive dad and you work together. Like you said, people can be snakey when you have a company/image and having such a supportive person on your team who you know will cheer you on no matter what, is such a fantastic thing. Really loved this video and finding out a little more about your journey. How wonderful that you support so many charities, lots of people are in the same position as you but don't necessarily give back using their platform. I discovered you from an interview in a horse magazine a year or so back. Haven't ridden since I was a teenager but I do miss it and watching you and elphickeventponies really fills that gap I miss so much
The minute I started riding I immediately started watching your videos, not only did you boost my passion in riding, but also gave me so much inspiration. You're amazing Esme❤️.
My friend showed me your channel and I fell in love and we started riding together and I still ride today . I have been riding for around a year and your channel has helped me so much .Thank you .❤❤
As someone who has just jumped up from a 14.1hh 15yr old super quiet push button pony I've been riding for 6 years, up onto a 17hh 4yr old warmblood I resonate with what you are saying so much with when you first got Joey and just with what you've said and with your confidence video, I feel so determined to keep going because I now see where you guys are and I really want to be there with my horse in the future, both UA-cam wise and riding wise. Thank you for everything Esme xx
You inspired my daughter thanks esme we now own 3 horse and all our little family are obsessed with horse. I’m now going to racing school. please please 🙏 watch our little videos it’s all because of you xxxx your an inspiration to all. I wish you all the best for you future.
You were the main reason why I started riding a year ago. because of you I started to love horse riding a lot! You are one of the reasons hy I kept going although I had to say goodbye to my heart horse. im already cantering over half meter jumps. you were the reason for that too as you made me love jumping watching you jump. you have been the biggest inspiration in my life Esme!
I’ve always wondered who’s behind the camera! Thank-you for sharing and how lovely that your dad is so supportive. I imagine that’s why you’re so relaxed behind the camera because you’re chatting infront of someone you know ❤
Hi Esme! I just wanted to say that you are the reason I started riding and my life has been so much better with horses. I honestly can't thank you enough for showing me into the world of riding. Watching your videos has given me so much, I went from a horsey girl who wanted to ride, to an actual rider. Thank you so much for everything you do!! We all love and appreciate you soo much!!
Esme. I am 39 and you are one of my idols and an inspiration to me to keep doing my best as an equestrian. I have learnt so much from you and your beautiful horses. Thank you! You are amazing! Xxx
Ahh Melanie thanks - that's amazing to hear
Esme is such an inspiration…the love she has for all animals, from Guinea pigs, hens, donkeys, ponies, to horses..she gets up at a”oh my god” o’clock to look after them. 🥰

Thank you so much for the help over the years. I got my first horse, and it reminded me of you and casper. I was very inexperienced and bought a very green horse. As you said, a recipe for disaster!

Thank you for being a UA-camr and inspiring so many people to do what you do. Much love, Avery ❤️
I'm all the way from Australia and I have gotten back into riding after having a break for 4 years, I used to have a friend that had a horse but we drifted apart and I couldn't ride anymore. Since watching Esme's videos I have fallen back in love with riding and I'm only weeks away from owning my very first horse. So from the bottom of my heart Esme, I thank you so much❤❤❤❤
I’m in Australia too.
I did lessons & had my own pony as a child. Had to sell my pony as we had to move to the city.
Fast forward about 30yrs and I just started riding lessons again! Have had 3 lessons so far. My dream is to have a horse again
Esme has come on so much from when she started, well done you deserve it girl
I have been watching you for the last 5 years and I honestly can't thank you enough! You have inspired me and given me the confidence to continue my riding journey! I started riding 7 years ago and when I found your channel, I was so inspired by your work and riding and I have watched you ever since! I have had some confidence nocks in the past, but watching your videos has helped me to never give up and to keep working on my mistakes. Your my favourite UA-camr and I again can't thank you enough! I have loved watching you and Casper progress together and have loved watching all the funny vlogs with funny Mickey clips. I have also loved watching you and Joey progress and improve the past 2 years and have loved watching Joey and Duke grow! Your such an amazing rider and your such an inspiration ❤️
I started riding just before the pandemic and I fell in love with it. I soon after had to stop because of lockdown. Your videos helped me stay in touch with horses and riding. Thank you Esme for being such a amazing person on UA-cam! love you!
hey Esme im a young girl and I have grew up loving horses like you! my first horse ride was when I was about 5-6 and I got to get lead on a horse and that's when I fell involve with it, I rescently went on a plane to cairns where I also had a ride and got lead and it was so fun!! after I got back home from that holiday I started watching you and you have helped me to learns soooo much, and I am very excited to start lessons as soon as possible!
I started riding lessons a few years ago and would have never been where I am now without your videos. Coming from a very non-equestrian background it has always been a challenge to navigate the riding industry when it comes to shows, caring for horses, and so much more. My dream is to own horses, and I would have never been anywhere close to where I am now without you. You and your horses are so amazing! I hope you always keep making videos!!! XXX
I am 13, and your videos have inspired me so much! By watching your videos I have begun to love horses more than ever. I am currently saving up to start taking riding lessons soon. Thank you for uploading your videos to youtube, you are my idol!
I had my first horse riding lesson last week I would of never of thought I would be saying that it’s my favourite sport, I think I wouldn’t of ever gotten into the sport unless I wouldn’t of watched ur videos, your so inspiring keep up the amazing work!!
hi Esme i am 11 years old and I started riding because of u. In the last 2 years i have learned how to walk trot canter jump and if I never came across u on youtube i would not be where i am today thank u so much xxx Megan
You are so inspiring Esme❤️ I’ve watched you since the first riding dares video with Scarlett and I’m so happy to have seen you grow
I got out of the equestrian world because of the ugly barn/witches people and now I am back into it at 70 years old because of "This Esme".Thanks to you for being true to yourself and I am so grateful to God/YAH but I have a dog and cat also, no donkeys yet. Thank you for being you!Much hope and blessings for your future and someday a gold medal. Thank you for keeping your boys, they are part of the family.
Esme is such an inspiration I watch her videos all the time and she has helped my confidence after a accident
I started riding when I was 9 years old now I am 14. Before me knowing horse riding was a sport, one of your videos popped up and that made me start riding, so thanks Esme.
This made me a little emotional! You are such an inspiring person, and you keep me motivated in my riding everyday. Thanks for everything you do for us xx
One of my favourite things about you Esme is how you never gave up on Casper, even after all those falls you just hopped back on, now Casper is a super looking horse and you have a beautiful relationship just as you do with all your boys, ❤️❤️
Yes, So proud of him! What an amazing horse he is!
I got so much more confident around horses because of you . I used to be quite scared of horses before I started wacthing your vidioes
That's lovely to hear! so glad. x
Esme I am 61 years old and not an equestrian but I thoroughly enjoy your channel and I love to see you with the horses. You are so personable and I can see the love you have for horses and they look so happy and content. I also love the house renovations. Keep doing what you are doing and I will keep watching xx
Thank you so much!
Esme, the night before you posted this I had a dream that I met you and I was literally crying tears of joy!!! I look up to you so much and you are 100% my favorite UA-camr!!! I hope your having a great day!❤️❤️❤️
Tell the horses I say hi plz🐎
i just want to say ive been really encouraged to start riding from your videos esme which has led to me finding my passion ive only been riding for a while but thanks to you i have been able to ace my canter by watching you so thanks so much for that
To This esme
I’ve been a long journey although my account was made in July of this year I watched you before I had this account and you really made my days 100x better you don’t know how much it means to me. I absolutely love seeing the horses and you be so happy for even though you’ve been trough a lot, I’ve been looking up to you for so long and you are my biggest idol I’d love to see you in person but I can’t because issues and sickness
You were the reason I started riding I’d watch your “beginner series” and it has helped me a lot you’ve taught me so much I didn’t even know how to fix stirrups until I found you
Thank you so so much for making me smile and much love from Norway❤️😊
I started riding horses before I found out about your channel, but when I found myself unmotivated because I wasn't progressing in my riding classes, so much so that I thought about stopping riding, I watched your videos and began to regain that motivation to learn to improve and ride horse with confidence.
Not me about to ball my eyes out at this video. Super proud of you Emse, you’ve done so so much for the equestrian community and you should be very proud of yourself :)
You have navigated some dicey waters in talking about employing your dad, Esme, and I will say brilliantly done. I applaud you for realizing the perils that come with celebrity and influence. The trust that you share with your dad is precious, and you are fortunate to be aware of it in your youth. You are wise and feisty, Esme. Thank you for sharing! 💜🙏
Thank you so much esme for putting so much time into these videos u made me smile after I found out my favorite horse had to be put down so thanks for everything❤
Esme just seems like such an amazing, kind person who is just so grateful for all she has. She is really an inspiration.
I love watching your vids i started riding after watching you on UA-cam (my mom and dad are not from a horsey backround) and making my channel because of you. Your so inspirational keep it up
this video has encouraged me so much to make videos and actually post them on my youtube channel i was scared about what people would think but know im just going to ignore what other people think of my videos. thanks so esme for being an inspiration to so many equestrians all over the world.
Omg Esme you’ve grown so much I’m so proud that you didn’t care about the people that bullied you I met you at the international horse show and I’m so grateful I got to meet you and I was shaking I was so glad to have the opportunity to meet you thankyou for uploading videos for us to watch and entertain us your the best xx 😘
Esme this story is absoultely heartwarming! All the work you put in is amazing!! You have changed so many lives either it's Animals or People's. You are an amazing person in and out. This world needs more people like you. You are the person that tries to bring out the best to world when it's not going so great! And i am so proud of you!!!
Personally for me the part with getting riding accessible for everyone touched me alot because it's really a struggle for some people that don't have that much money or having other problems that they can't afford to ride horses.
It is sad to see people that have so much potential can't do what they want because of the Money Factor. And Unfortunately the equestrian world is quite expensive...
I really hope your Dream's come true!!!
Keep doing what your doing! ❤💖
Now look at you, so close to ONE MILLION!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 let’s hope to get you there. I wish those mean girls could see you now thriving so much!
Thank-you for sharing this with all of us I’m glad you have gained more confidence and really glad you have become equestrian because I watch your videos all day everyday love you Esme ❤️
Esme you are the reason why I have such a love for horses . When I was very young like 5 I wanted to be a jockey. I didn't know that showjumping was a thing. When I was about 8 I said I HATED HORSES . Crazy I know . I saw your Chanel and fell in love . And that's where I am now . Horses are my life . You made my life better . ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
so sweet they are!
I think it's crazy when I see my favourite horsey youtubers riding story.I find it amazing how you started off a rider just like me. my dream is to become a horsey youtuber just like you. I have been watching since 2019. 😁Your UA-cam channle has come on so much since 2015 I also love how mickey and casper have been bffs since the beginning. love your vids💜
I started riding almost 1 year ago...I am now jumping and you have been the BEST inspiration for me. Thank you
Your absolutely amazing esme and your story has helped alot of people!! This is how far you can go if you keep trying don't give up guys! My mom had a hard horse life but right now we're doing great!! It's gonna be hard but stick in there!! Can I plz get pinned

@@ThisEsMe may I pls ask a question how do you get the filming in the sky watching over the arena?

Yes probs a drone xx but I don't know xx I learnt riding from her
@@Lily-oe2fu how can u film from a drone
My best friend Molly had been riding for years because of you. She was so obsessed that I started to watch you too...and the obsession caught on. I'm so happy with my horsey life and you honest are 99%of why it exists! Xxx
She is so amazing ! This helped me with my riding so much ❤️🐴✨
Esme you have helped me so much as an equestrian ,you got me into riding and it has been the most amazing experience i have been riding for a while now and at the moment i am looking after and riding unbroken ponies and you have helped me on the way by giving me not only riding experiance but experiance in pony care to! i look up to you and i love the channel. thank you x
Hi Esme!! I love your channel and all your equines 💕
I hope you are all doing well
And I am so happy to have another amazing video to watch!! I’ll be watching soon! 🥰
Please tell your horses that they are amazing
I started riding horses when I was seven and you were a huge inspiration to me once I first watch one of your videos. I remember I was just the tiny little kid who was barely able to jump cross rails. But now I’m 12 i’m currently trying to find a horse to take me to Grand Prix just know how much you inspire people and how well loved you are by your viewers❤️❤️❤️
First!!!!!!!
well done!
@@ThisEsMe omg hiii esme I ❤️ you your such an inspiration
@@ThisEsMe omg! Thank you for replying ❤️❤️
Congrats🥳
you've progressed so much, and so has casper. i cant believe a few years ago he was bucking you off most rides. hes unrecognisable, you guys are remarkable now. well done esme ❤️
Second!
Aww hearing you talk about you and your dad working together got me so emotional haha I got chatting to him at Hickstead about a lot of the things you've now opened up about in this video and it's just so inspirational to hear about that dedication, team work and passion behind the scenes that brings your UA-cam channel to life! I was blown away seeing you greeting your very first meet and greet fans first thing in the morning at Hickstead and seeing you again towards the end of the day with that same enthusiasm and kindness towards every single person. You truly are an amazing person Esme and you deserve absolutely everything that comes your way! UA-cam has been a part of my life since I was a teenager too and I have always had a love and passion for animals, especially horses, since a young age despite having a non-horsey family so hearing your story is so relatable. You're amazing and don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise!
I used to ride when I was a kid and have always loved horses and the community but I had stopped for around 7-9 years, after discovering your videos I am so happy to say that I have started my passion up again and am starting the process of working with horses as a career!!!!!
Thank you so much Esme❤️❤️❤️
Your kind heart, positivity and the love for animals along with determination and hard work has made you the best role model for any kid, teenager and adult. You have inspired so many people to fulfill your dreams, given so much more confidence while working with horses. YOU are amazing! ❤️love from Estonia😊
The most impressive aspect of you and your channel is that you are humble, kind, hardworking and wholesome. Here’s to many many more years of your success.
Esme, I am now 15 and I have been watching your videos for a long time now! Mt riding story has really grown because of you! You are my inspiration today and forever! I cant believe how much my confidence has grown because of you. I have a very young Thoroughbred and your perseverance and courage has helped me everyday. I am also dyslexic and to know you an amazing rider and person have been able to achieve such great things, It gives me hope that I too can become what I can be by working hard. I love you so much -x Emilia ❤
I have had my horse about 4 years but i lost interest (i don't know why) in riding, but i watched your videos, you gave me energy and motivation. Thank you Esme it means so much to me that you do this!❤
I just wanted you to know Esme, that even if you don’t post for a month, I will always watch your videos and be very excited when you start posting again. Ik viewers cant control that, but I always will love your channel!
Esme the support of your dad just warms my heart. You're a very fortunate girl. I love the youtube channel
I'm so greatful for you Esme 💛 I first watched your UA-cam videos in 2018, when a lot changed in my life and riding was the only regular thing. Since then I've aspired to become an equine physio! This year I'll be starting Uni and hearing how you've grown in confidence has helped me be brave enough to take this step! Although I'm not as lucky to own horses or have as much experience, it's what I love 💖 Seeing you progress over the years really inspires me and I'm so glad your channel is going strong, but still chatting on such a personal level! Keep doing what your doing, because as long as you love it we live it! 💗
I’ve been expert UA-camr for over 20 years; in all my tenure on this royal reel I take my hat off for ThisEsme. She’s stunning, she’s fabulous, and she’s marvelous as just one person (plus cameraman). I (along with everybody else) look forward to seeing more of this beautiful pasture blossom. A charm all on her own; as if the horses weren’t enough… This community welcomes you with fixed eyes and open hearts. Bravo Ezmara Ezzie & Esme 👏🏻. The anticipation for her content is as exhilarating as the ride itself. Here’s to many more years of smooth strides of success for you & your family my dear. ☺️😌😃
Hi Esme I,d like to say a huge Thankyou to you for encouraging my daughter who found your you tube channel last year and since November last year started riding and has been inspired so much.We never miss a video as we love them.Keep up the wonderful work you do ..your amazing 🥰
I definitely teared up watching this. I’ve been watching your channel since around 2017, near the beginning, and I’m so proud of you Esme. I’m just a few years younger than you and I remember growing up watching your videos and just being so impressed by what a kind soul you seemed like and your genuine love for horses. Watching you evolve over the years as I watch myself evolve, especially in my riding and maturing personally, has been a huge comfort. Thank you for everything.
I have been watching This Esme since 2020 and ever since then I showed your videos to my parents and they finally let me start riding lessons. I already knew how to tack up thanks to your videos. You are my idol. I love you so much. Xx
I started riding because of you I started watching you in 2018 and still watch your videos today I've now been riding for 8 months Iand I can now jump so happy with my progress and I could not have done it with out watching you thank you xxx
i started horse riding because of you, i was on youtube one day and saw ur video and clicked on it thats was the best decision i have ever made thank you esme you have changed my life and i owe you everything for it you deserve millions of followers you are amazing x
Esme your such an inspiration! Whenever I have a bad day and feel like I will never improve in my equestrian journey I watch your videos and feel better! You bring me so much joy and show me what’s it’s like to be a equestrian! Thank you so much for making videos! Your amazing!! ❤️
I started riding at my local barn because of you!!!! I begged my parents for months for a horse but I finally realized they are a lot of money. So I’m super grateful to be riding at river ranch! Thank you soooo much for your content! Love your videos!!!
After my mare passed in 2020, I couldn't ride anymore. We were moving to a new area for my partner's job and I didn't have the money for lessons much less a lease on top of that. Being able to watch your videos helped me get some "horsey time". I was your age in the era where people overworked their horses for social media posts and people showed off by being rough and "dominating" their horses. Seeing your videos where you're gentle and reasonable with your horses was very refreshing. Looking forward to see where life continues to take you
Esme you are a beautiful soul and an inspiration to all young and old. I thoroughly enjoyed this story and I think how wonderful to have that relationship with your dad to work together . At 57 yrs I have watched you from the beginning and loved watching you and your channel grow sweetheart xxxx
I found your channel, when I was getting back into riding in my 30’s after a 15 year break. Such a cosy comforting channel and podcast. Always love to come here after a long work day.
Thank you!
I feel like I owe you the world. Because your videos helped me convince my non horsey parents to get me my first ever horse. Which I have now had for almost 2 years. Thank you so so much Esme
Esme, a lot of your fans, including me, would not be where we are with out you!! From simple things like learning everything about matchy-matchy, to knowing its ok to have confidence knocks and not getting everything perfect the first time. Thank you for running such an amazing and honest channel! We all love you!!!
I don’t usually watch certain UA-camrs for along time but I’ve been here since 200k (on a different account) I keep coming back to this channel and never get bored of your videos!
Esme seems very kind. Honestly there's so many people in the horse world in general that don't deserve horses but have them and it sounds incredibly unfair sometimes, but I think Esme is one of those people who knows they're lucky but that truly deserves it. Keep it up! :)
When I was younger I always wanted to ride but when I started watching your videos I wanted to ride more then ever, so thank you for being the person that started me in such an amazing sport!! I love you
I have only been watching the channel for about a year and she has taught me so much she is one of the reasons of why I joined a competitive team and she helps me learn more things so I can apply them to my riding. Thank you Esme
I'm 15 years old and I quit riding two years ago and then I started watching your videos two months later I start riding again now I'm happier than ever. I wanted to say a massive thank you and also kisses from Greece 🐴🇬🇷
Love you, Esme. Stay strong and know that we all love you and that Nikki really loved you so much.😢 and I’m so sorry for your loss😢
Hi, my oldest daughter fell off her fav pony a few weeks ago and she got back on this week and she says it because of watching this video! Thank you soooo much Esme. We love you!
I remember first finding Esme's channel between 2018-2019, when I first started to get riding lessons, and I learned a lot! The lessons only taught be to ride, and none of the other important stuff, so she's taught me so much! And seeing this made me tear up a bit, seeing how far she's come since I started watching.
This is so touching. I’m only eleven and I’m on my first loan and I’m improving so much with her and by watching you. Your proving to people to enjoy life and take no notice of the people who tell you what you can do and can’t do. Your an inspection to so many people. I think loads would agree ❤️🥰
As someone who started watching your videos in late 2019 and started riding in October 2020 your a huge inspiration and I’m so proud of how far you’ve come
Esme, you are such a wonderful inspiring person. Please take care of yourself, especially your mental health. Your journey is amazing and unique to you and that’s beautiful. 💕
I love the fact you have such a supportive dad and you work together. Like you said, people can be snakey when you have a company/image and having such a supportive person on your team who you know will cheer you on no matter what, is such a fantastic thing.
Really loved this video and finding out a little more about your journey. How wonderful that you support so many charities, lots of people are in the same position as you but don't necessarily give back using their platform.
I discovered you from an interview in a horse magazine a year or so back. Haven't ridden since I was a teenager but I do miss it and watching you and elphickeventponies really fills that gap I miss so much
The minute I started riding I immediately started watching your videos, not only did you boost my passion in riding, but also gave me so much inspiration. You're amazing Esme❤️.
My friend showed me your channel and I fell in love and we started riding together and I still ride today . I have been riding for around a year and your channel has helped me so much .Thank you .❤❤
As someone who has just jumped up from a 14.1hh 15yr old super quiet push button pony I've been riding for 6 years, up onto a 17hh 4yr old warmblood I resonate with what you are saying so much with when you first got Joey and just with what you've said and with your confidence video, I feel so determined to keep going because I now see where you guys are and I really want to be there with my horse in the future, both UA-cam wise and riding wise. Thank you for everything Esme xx
You inspired my daughter thanks esme we now own 3 horse and all our little family are obsessed with horse. I’m now going to racing school. please please 🙏 watch our little videos it’s all because of you xxxx your an inspiration to all. I wish you all the best for you future.
You were the main reason why I started riding a year ago. because of you I started to love horse riding a lot! You are one of the reasons hy I kept going although I had to say goodbye to my heart horse. im already cantering over half meter jumps. you were the reason for that too as you made me love jumping watching you jump. you have been the biggest inspiration in my life Esme!
I’ve always wondered who’s behind the camera! Thank-you for sharing and how lovely that your dad is so supportive. I imagine that’s why you’re so relaxed behind the camera because you’re chatting infront of someone you know ❤
Hi Esme! I just wanted to say that you are the reason I started riding and my life has been so much better with horses. I honestly can't thank you enough for showing me into the world of riding. Watching your videos has given me so much, I went from a horsey girl who wanted to ride, to an actual rider. Thank you so much for everything you do!! We all love and appreciate you soo much!!
