Bareback riding WITHOUT reins performed by Stacy Westfall

Amazing performance. Beautiful horse

ud have to b pretty talented to b able to do this!

crazy awesome

i want to be able to do this... i can ride bareback, but the horse i ride can be spooky, but i tay with him, but im trying to work up to it...

8D i've met her before! i have her autograph on a poster of her!

I was taught to ride bareback before I was allowed to have any tack. This is how a horse should be ridden. So many riding teachers teach their students to almost be at war with their horse. Like you have to force them to do what you want by using aggression and pain. But this girl and many others show the real way of riding a horse... being friends with the horse!

she sure does love her horses!

Wow! but i am surprised sche is holding on in canter even i can do it bareback without holding on

I used to do all of this with my horse, had no idea it's that out of the ordinary. I guess thats why her new owner was so impressed. Angel didn't need much training as soon as they understand everything that you want with leg cues. They just do what you ask as soon as you remove the bridle.

Now thats what i wish i could do. All leg pressure and shift in weight, fine tuned and practiced till these cues are almost invisible. Takes a special horse too
