Horsemanship and The moment of chaos… Philosophies, assessments and concepts
f you’ve read past blog entries of mine, you’ll see there
are certain themes, such as focusing on the horse’s brain and emotions, raising
the human’s level of awareness to better understand what the horse is trying to
communicate, experimenting with the “concepts” that we often abide by but not
always for a clear or appropriate reason, and so forth.
An unnatural reaction...
Why do we put so much effort into focusing on teaching the "unnatural" response of stop, ask for direction and then react in the horse? Here is a 10 min Budweiser demo gone wrong- if you watch from 4:30-8:40, it is the ultimate display of trust... would your horse handle this in the same way? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUt1c_2v0fw
