    Warwick is a professional, experienced horse expert. He has forgotten more about training horses/handlers than most of us will ever know.
    He is outstanding in his philosophies and methods working with horses and with people that create problems with horses.
    For you that are critical of his knowledge and his proven training expertise really seem bold.
    I find it offensive and disrespectful to second guess someone that has spent years helping people develop their horsemanship and overcome obstacles and issues with their horses.
    Everybody wants to be a cowboy until it's time to do cowboy shit.
    Don't be ignorant to the fact that you know it all. Have an open mind and a willingness to learn and try different philosophies to educate yourself and your handling methods.
    Warwick is as solid as they come.
    Thanks Warwick for your commitment and hard work to help so many around the world!

    I have found the less I use my reins the softer and more responsive my horses are, the more you hold your reins the more your horse will brace and be tight I have discovered with my horses any way

    I've seen most of your video's and I've enjoyed them incredibly - it's amazing how you use all the learning principles in a very correct way and how you can explain what you do and why you do it very clearly. You're also very correct and clear to your horses so it is very easy for them to understand you which can give people the impression that what you do is magic which it isn't.
    Please keep on posting, the horseworld needs this sort of video's!

    Just ran across your videos. Thank you for your common sense approach to horses, wish you were in Canada. It's really about shaping behavior, you don't move on to the 2nd step before you've finished the 1st one, otherwise the problem just gets worse. Hope you're still making vids, will look for more recent ones.

    My thoughts exactly, dont confuse them with to much bs, if they cant travel on a loose rein, why go further with them, one step at a time, thanks for video

    Can u please make a video that talks about how to get your horse back to the routine/being calm after not being ridden for awhile? Because I have a mare that hasn't been ridden in awhile and she's crazy, Bucky, ect..

    @jaserovy Před 11 lety +1

    How are your reins attached to the rope haltar? Are they tied? When or do you change to a bit? I have only used a rope haltar and snapped it to the area of the haltar just below where you have it. It seems to work for me. But I am always looking for better ideas. Thank you for your videos.

  • @HALedbetter85
    @HALedbetter85 Před 11 lety

    Question. You may have addressed this in a previous video, but how do you get a horse traveling on a loose rein? My horse has always been one to move quickly with his head up in the air, like I'm going to make him do something he doesn't want to do. I try to stay relaxed in my seat, and release any pressure the moment he relaxes. I'm curious to know what else I can do to help get him to where he will relax enough for me to keep the loose rein.

  • @lilalaunelurch
    @lilalaunelurch Před 11 lety +1

    it is not about having a special type of saddle, but about having the right mindset. an other saddle would not change what you do, so its just for comfort and has no effect on a problem that you might have with a horse. what ever he does in a western saddle, you can do in a dressage saddle too an it will work the same way.

  • @ingalill
    @ingalill Před 11 lety

    Have you ever thought to use a dressage saddle once in your video? it would perhaps help those ones who doesnt have cuontry style saddle...?

  • @darynneonthetrail
    @darynneonthetrail Před 10 lety +18

    My understanding is that a horses connective and skeletal structures (spine, pelvis and leg) are not fully developed until 6 years. To me that means you better be VERY careful when working and riding before 6 years. VERY mindful or you will not have a sound adult horse on your hands.

    • @dgarzaart2000
      @dgarzaart2000 Před 5 lety +2

      Andslusians, Lusitanos. Lipizzans don't go under saddle until 4 years of age. Many other breeds go under saddle at two years. I believe that's why so many eventers, hunters and such go lame all the time. If people could be more patient their horses would probably be more sound = lower vet bills!

  • @hidayahbajou6988
    @hidayahbajou6988 Před 8 lety +20

    I first came across a person who advocates no bits, no spurs, whips, martingales or other tools of torture at all, all the time recently. Initially I found him weird because I learned thru a career in the horse industry, these are the norms since times of old. Only after I left did I see the wrongs, the horse will always be blamed. Blamed for our incompetence, our temper, our fast pace of life and short cuts. Mostly what turned me away was the constant seeking of recognition for the self from others, be it by having the breed in trend, the latest 'aids'. I had to get out....oh yeah plus the fact I myself couldn't afford the horse and tools ;) but boy do I miss the comfort n peace horses gives me.

  • @marcelborkowski6201
    @marcelborkowski6201 Před 4 lety +1

    What do you do if you canter on a loose rein and your horse goes faster and faster, do you slow them down or bend them to a stop?

    • @WarwickSchiller
      @WarwickSchiller  Před 4 lety +4

      Bend to a relaxed stop. Its all about resetting their emotional state, not about the speed.

    • @WarwickSchiller
      @WarwickSchiller  Před 4 lety +2

      I don't really like the term bitless, its not about whether you use a bit of not. The bit is not the problem.Most people I see riding bitless would be hurting their horses mouth if they rode in a bit the same way they ride bitless. The reins are not a seatbelt.

  • @jaskuwka
    @jaskuwka Před 10 lety

    If you aren't supposed to use your legs then how do you get your horses to move? I've seen some people make their horses change into faster gates apparently without the rider doing anything. I try to figure out what they do but I'm not able to. Help, please? D:

    • @albasabater7810
      @albasabater7810 Před 9 lety +1

      You can use your body weight to ask the horse to stop or move faster, even to turn, just by tilting your back a bit. Of course, that will work diferently form horse to horse since some are more sensitives than others, but it always helps if you are working withoult using your feet. It should not be ever used if you can unbalance the horse.
      It's always better to practise that not moving very fast to understand well how sensitive is the horse and how sensitive must be oneself.

      +Ania Chudzinska warwick trains his horses using voice cues on the ground like clicking, kissing, woah ect so that the horse has a easy time when being ridden for as the forward cue undersaddle is the same as on the ground :)

  • @makaylam947
    @makaylam947 Před 5 lety +3

    The biggest problem with the horse industry is people get horses not meant for them, ruin their training, then pass them on when they "don't listen" anymore! If you're a begginner rider, you need a well trained easy horse, not a fancy 200 automatic button 60 mph horse!

      Take lessons.. hopefully the instructor will also help you learn how to train. Any time you are with a horse you are teaching/training them.

  • @Lara-wg2pb
    @Lara-wg2pb Před 10 lety +5

    I was kind of skeptical about Warwick.. And I still kind of am, but I can see he's a good horseman and he teaches the stuff I also learned about, it's in the same line, and it's not Parelli kind of games and bull shit. I still think starting a horse at two years old are way too young, since very few, almost non-existing number of people do that in my country, and it's widely considered ill of. But he does great work I need to see some more videos before deciding if it's something I wanna keep watching..

    • @WarwickSchiller
      @WarwickSchiller  Před 10 lety +1

      That one's a 3 year old , not sure why you made a 2 year old comment.

    • @Lara-wg2pb
      @Lara-wg2pb Před 10 lety

      WarwickSchiller Yes. I get that. But didn't you say you at one point you were riding your wifes two year old.. Albert, was it?

    • @WarwickSchiller
      @WarwickSchiller  Před 10 lety +12

      So you are willing write off the simple, logical, and effective nature of my training because I was riding my wife's 2 year old. I think thats the attitude I am directly referring to in this video.

    • @Lara-wg2pb
      @Lara-wg2pb Před 10 lety +2

      I did not write that I'm willing to write off anything. I think you may be offended by what I wrote, my intention was not to hurt you, just to look at your methods with a critical eye, like i've learned to do. I haven't seen all your videos yet and certaintly not enough to base an opinion. I just think it's important to have the horse's overall health in mind before starting him or her. I do see that you're a good horseman but I myself, can choose whether or not I wanna listen to you or use your methods. Just to be clear on that.
      And whatever attitude you are directly reffering to in your videos I don't see how you can put me in that category without even seeing me. I do respect that you've come very far with just common horse sense, cause it's something that's unfortunately very lacking in the horse world and mostly among women too. I also do applaud that you teach these people how to communicate the right thing to their horses, and get a healthy working relationship with them..
      and sorry if you feel I have disrespected you, I can assure you that's not the case so please forgive me.

      I wouldn't start a horse until it was 4 or even 5 years old. But that's just me :)
      Well, just because you ride with a bit and 'traditional' gear, doesn't mean your horse isn't happy. I know people can be good to their animals, even if they're naive to the things a metal bit or spurs do to their horse.
      I truly do not believe that horses are unhappy about their owners not riding them, I believe they are happier about going to pasture everyday with their buddies. But I have to say I'm strongly against people who put their horses in stalls and small boxes everyday for more than 5-10 hours. That's cruel to me.
      So those people working full time, and don't often get to go riding on their horses, well I don't mind, as long as the horses get out everyday, if not stay out everyday.
      I wouldn't be surprised if those horses with those kind of owners live a long life, but there are many factors to be considered, i know that.

      You been wearing spurs on Albert and on other horses, why? Would you like it if you get kicked with them in the sides? I tink there are not nessesary at all!

    • @WarwickSchiller
      @WarwickSchiller  Před 7 lety +7

      Did you see me kick Albert with them ?
      Spurs are like dressage whips, and any other artificial aid, they are to back up your request.
      The whole point of training is to teach your horse to respond to the request, and avoid the back up. Exactly the way horses never kick first when asking another horse to yield , there is always a subtle cue , which escalates until they get the required reaction. So if you really think about that, articficial aids are part of what horses do with each other.
