I started the recording a bit late on this session. The first part was me talking about losing one of my horses about 10 days prior to the call. The recording starts with me explaining how I've been coping since that loss.

Positive Reinforcement (Clicker Training)

3 Lessons

Members Only

Clicker training is positive reinforcement. It's a fun for both you and your horse. Your horse learns how to learn while staying relaxed and feeling safe. This way of working with your horse is definitely more carrot and no stick!

Video lesson

This video shows you to use a whip in a very different way to encourage your stuck horse to move forward - willingly and relaxed.

Video lesson

This video is a real time training session I did with a thoroughbred gelding, Taz, in a windy, noisy indoor arena. Watch to see how you can use positive reinforcement to improve your horse's confidence in unsettling situations.

Ground Work Exercises

4 Lessons

Members Only

How to lunge a horse help bring her into a healthier frame of body and calmer state of mind. This video focuses on: 1) how your alignment to the horse affects how well she lunges, 2) how to best use a whip* as an extension of your body 3) the effect pushing on different areas of the body have on the horse. *This video was made before I started using positive reinforcement with horses. I know longer use whips. However, even back then I wasn't using the whip to hit or scare the horse. I encourage you to watch this video with the intention of learning the alignment and body language that helps the horse understand what he or she is being asked to do.

Anne Gage demonstrates how to bring a horse into true bend while being lunged. Anne shows how it is possible to change the horse's physical shape without using any special gadgets.

In this short (03:54 min) video, I demonstrate how to use the reins to block unwanted head movements. For example, when leading a horse who nips, brings his head into your space (e.g. curls in front of you), or looks off to the side.

Riding Tips

1 Lesson

Members Only

Does your horse bulge his shoulder out when riding a corner or circle? In this video, I'm coaching one of my students to correct this common problem. The common mistake many riders make when their horse is bulging out the shoulder is to use more inside rein - trying to pull the horse into the turn. What's needed is more outside leg and rein AND that the rider has the correct position.

In this video, I'm talking about why it can feel like your nerves, fear, or anxiety feels like it's out of your control. It has to do with our nervous system. And I give you some simple (and quick) effective techniques for stimulating your Vagus Nerve and improving your Vagal Tone so that you feel more at ease.

Establishing clear personal boundaries helps to keep both you and your horse safe. A good boundary simply defines ‘your space’ and ‘my space’. The need for respect of personal boundaries is reciprocal – whether person to person, horse to horse or person to horse. You need your horse to respect your boundaries, and he needs you to respect his.
