He became very popular in the European horse scene in the 1990s and many students have been using this method since then. It is one of the best I have ever seen and practiced, but unfortunately it is not suitable for everyone - it requires a lot of intuition and understanding of horses. If one don't get on so well with KFH's method, I recomment the style of the danish horseman Bent Branderup. His method is very solid and a little "easier" to bring rider and horse to the very highest level (as far as both are mentally and physically capable).
This should be Olympic equestrian. I am awestruck. The frame of the horse, the invisibility invisibility of cues, the clear presence of freedom and choice, my God.
What I see here is a truly happy horse. I especially like your dressage videos as I find the sport a little disturbing, watching people pull so hard on a bid and drawing the poor horses head so far in. I want to draw horses doing dressage, but can't bear to watch those videos of that kind of abuse. So you're videos really help!
i completely understand your dilema. I am exactly the same. It is so painful watching these "proffesional" riders using double bridles and tugging at the poor horse's foaming mouth. We have to educate people that bits in general are harsh and cruel. Imagine putting a piece of metal the size of a fork in a the soft and tender flesh of a horse's mouth. Ugh, pain if you ask me.
@@sarahnystrom8517 i agree that modern dressage has a lack of thought and care for the horse behind it, but classical dressage - although it has solid foundations and philosophies - still uses the harshest bits and a multitude of metal devices on the poor horses that are made to do it. I don't believe any horse would willingly let someone put a double bit in its mouth and pull and tug, whilst jabbing its side with metal spikes. These bridle-less vids are really great because they show people that horses DO create self carriage and will willingly participate in dressage and collect themselves, without coercive and painful devices. Its really wonderful to see!
I absolutly agree with you. I do everything with my horse what only is kind to him, we are friend, I prefer freedom for him, cooperation with me if he wants. Bridleless riding is the most beautiful riding in my opinion....
@@Bewithhorsespeacefulmindset I commend you. I live by a philosophy of, "if you have to hurt an animal to get it to do what you want, you're training it wrong."
Can't wait till i can do this with my mare, getting close :P can now ride her in a halter and she will walk behind me with nothing on in the arena now :D I have only had her about 3 months
@@sarahnystrom8517 she didn't say she taught the horse to love her lol as far as we know she's been sitting in the arena with her just talking and allowing her to get used to the presence. Don't be so bitter lol love is earned through bonding time, respect, and care. That's not taught it's just displayed
@@sarahnystrom8517 i really understand what you mean. It's so artificial 'training' horses to be at liberty and follow you. They either do or they don't.
Actually caroline rider. I know for a fact that Nadine likes caroline rider. Caroline rider is way better than parelli and she deserves to be as well known to the equine world. You should check her out she's amazing and creates wonderful relationships where she doesn't teach the horse to want to be with her, they just do through the work. She's a very good teacher and I learned a ton from the dvds on her website: www.riderhorsemanship.com. please check her out she can teach you to have the relationship you've always wanted with your horse. And I don't work for her. This is out of the enthuthiasm of her work with horses.
@@sarahnystrom8517 I know, right? Parelli is so manipulative and mechanical. I feel like he really doesn't understand the inner workings of a horse's mind and thoughts. Rider is absolutely wonderful and insightful. I love her so much.
Eliya Adler yay! I’m so happy I found a Caroline rider fan. Actually she got married and now she’s Caroline Beste But anyway I’m so excited I found someone else who likes Caroline Beste. People like her because of her methods uniqueness and how it’s not mechanics and techniques it’s about the relationship.
@@sarahnystrom8517 I know right. I love Caroline's methodology and her way of using intuition to create this amazing partnership with her horses. I would love to attend one of her workshops but unfortunately I live in Australia:(
kat------Respect the needs of the horse. Use a couple of one inch thick wool felt pads. You will still get a good opportunity to perfect balance and other riding skills while protecting the horse's back.
@@gabriellerausch594 27/7? also, that's like saying "as for smoking, as long as it's not 24/7 it's fine". No. It's not. Damge will be done. Sure, a lot slower, but riding on top of a hors'es tender spine with NO CUSHIONING is not going to be good and will cause pain after 2mins. There are studies done on this. "The scans of bareback rides showed small areas where pressure reached a level that could cause pain and tissue damage in the horse’s muscle fibers. This was particularly true where the rider’s seat bones contacted the horse’s back. Scans of saddled rides showed that the force and pressure were spread over a wider area, so the impact was lower for specific spots." ker.com/equinews/bareback-riding-comfortable-horse/
ABSOLUTELY. So few people understand this and it pains me to see 'liberty' riders - who presumably have their horse's health and wellbeing foremost in mind - bouncing up and down on the barely protected spine of a horse. Between or coccyx bone and the horses' soft and tender spine is barely 2cm of flesh and cloth.

@@narniabusiness4474 We know, but having a long, thin, stick with a switch on the end, in your hand can easily lead to harder and harder taps, then eventually hits. If you use your hand and arm, it is a lot harder to hit the horse you are working with beacuse you would have to physically touch him. Also, why do you need a 2m long arm? A horse can see a pale, thick arm of a human better then a thin, dark stick.
@@eliyasara9786 The horse can see the "stick" just fine, and if it easily leads to hitting, then there's something wrong with said person. In advance, sorry if I sound aggressively defensive, I just type like that. Also, it's hard trying to touch a specific place on your companion if it's too far away. That's where the "stick" comes in handy.

This is incredible to watch!
Your horse seems so relaxed and happy!
It makes me really happy to see that because it's kind of rare to see that nowadays.
Good job!
This is so incredible! I love liberty and tackless riding! It's amazing

You do know that horses do dressage and create self carriage by them selves right. Classical dressage is fine but modern is bad.

Riding a horse bareback with an adult weight is hard on a horse's back.
