In this video, Karen shows you step by step how she changed a horse’s mind about being bridled. This is a Grand Prix dressage horse who has defensive behavior around bridling (and putting halters and fly masks on). Karen will show you every stage of the process. You will see all the different ways she builds his trust in her and all the different methods she uses, such as Reflex to Relax, Moving Massage, and Permission. She also highlights the need for him to feel like he has a choice in the process.
This video is for all students who really want to see the process and who are willing for it to take as long as it takes. The power of this video is in the small moments. I think you are going to love it!
