For those of you have been following the progress of P.R.E. Stallion Panadero, here he is on his seventh ride. See how easy it is to control him when bitless as a result of learning the Waterhole Rituals. For more info, see www.carolynresnick.com

very pretty horse and also, the intellegence level of this horse has been peaked by this gals training methods, i use simular training on dogs, i call it UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE (TM) and it relates to all animals. she is using it also. every body part speaks, every movement is telling the horse what to do.

[caswombat]

not quite correct, a horse can clearly see you up on his back because of his almost 360 degree vision. also, a horse can feel you shift weigh, clench and release and tilt and when he's fully tuned in to you, your minute movements, say leaning back a little, can be a queue to slow down, stop or even back up. You're movement is much more imporant that your voice.

@Golvklut Do you even know what Universal Language is? I was the FIRST person to use the wordage to discribe what i have donned the definition of the word. Were you the first person to use the word Logic? and to define it as in "training' of an animal or some other form for its usage? i think NOT.

@shepalutes You are trademarking universal language? Hmmm...

I shall then put a trademark on logic! Logic (TM), it's only mine!

Ugh....too much clucking!!!! I had to put it on mute! Other than that pretty cool

I don't know how Carolyn Resnick transfers from ground training to liberty, but she's using verbal cues on the ground (trot, whoa). It would be fairly easy to give those cues from the saddle and give the appropriate aids at the same time to transfer the cue. Alternatively, a pair of people, one giving body language cues from the ground while the other is giving aids in saddle, could accomplish the same thing.

I cant wait when I move back to San Diego in 3 or 4 years. I really want to meet you Carolyn. Your fair to horses but your also fair to people. So many people even Liberty Trainers have rules! Its almost like u give the freedom of speech to a horse and we treat them how to use privelage in a respectable way.(=

Not at all accurate. Do some more research and you will see it really isn't necessary. But knowledge is required!

You would be surprised.I can't speak for this trainer,but I find liberty training carries to saddle beautifully.I use the same torso/pelvis cues from the ground that I do in the saddle- if I want a right lead at liberty I push my right hip forwards.If I want bend, I bend my own ribs(slightly)and step torwards his rib cage,which is very similar to the wieght aids and inside leg I will use in the saddle. But most importantly is the horse learns to follow your focus.

Whilst i agree with training horses without devices, bits and bridles, surely the second you place yourself on its back, that training is useless? You cant communicate with it using body language, as it cant see you. So there must be two seperate training methods here. One for ground work, and one for once you are in the saddle. Because that horse had to respond to the reins and leg aids, as well the vocal and visual commands. So where do the methods overlap?
