I had kind of the Magic moment with Rook. Suddenly we realized we were having much more intricate discussions. I also have been using the idea of her coming into my loop in our groundwork.

I talked much of this episode because I was so excited about it all. If you're not into it, skip this one.

Michael talked about the palomino Willow and how if she can just barely look under the bed she no longer sees monsters. I was playing around with a hindquarter yield ala Hans Von Blixen.

All right so this week we talked a lot about one of my favorite visuals, which is a young ballerina learning to balance and turn on a point shoe. I love that analogy because it's so clearly represents being 100% in the middle and remember in that case, we are the teacher helping and letting him go helping and letting go so that the ballerina can learn to 100% on her own.In other words, we discussed how important it is to believe in that feeling of total balance in particular in the fourth-quarter yield over the outside hind leg and number two to even care about the feeling that the horse is doing it and we're not micromanaging the entire process. When we think about it, in context of the young ballerina, it is pretty ridiculous to think about pushing, and pulling her around. We would of course disturb her balance and make it impossible for a heart to learn to be in self carriage. In other words, we talked about set it up and let them find it.Tune in live weekly at 6:30AM PST/8:30 CT on the Northwood Farms YouTube Channel. Bring your thoughts and questions to the chat!

In this week's Horsemanship Remarks Show live on YouTube (now on Spotify!), I shared about my wild yearling Revlon, that dun-striped BLM mustang who’s got me rethinking how to tame/gentle/start a horse. Taming her boils down to three key pieces: relationship, education/horse training, and exposure. They weave together but follow a natural order for a solid foundation:

• Relationship First: It’s about trust and connection. Without this, the rest falls flat or just plain doesn’t work. Friends First but also Culture!

• Education/Horse Training Next: This is the groundwork and skill-building. It’s sequential but loops back to trust when she gets lost.

• Exposure Last: Introduce the real world—sounds, sights, other horses. Rushing it without the ability to support her will inevitably teach her she has to fend for herself.

Revlon’s journey has me hooked on this flow; it’s messy, magical, and verry interesting.
