Hiiii amazing video you inspire me so much thank you for everything and the love and care you give your horses!❤
Yay!
Hi shae!
Will you just make us a video letting you gush about all the horses and your students? XD I feel like you and the collective horse lovers need it! XD
Shay, you're pretty amazing; however, I think if you're going to have your students show, you should educate yourself in showing as much as you have in other areas. Comments like "I hate chains" and "(color)halter class is 100% based on color" show a lack of understanding. I was rather shocked . You're created a strong follwi6that look to you for guidance. Parts of this vlog were an epic fail.😮
I broke into tears seeing Jiminy hanging his head. So glad your baby is feeling better 💕 So proud of Mushi too!
Yes! I was worried he was going to colic 😔
Me too.
@lizzieb6311 me too!!!
@@lizzieb6311me too. Thank goodness he was ok. Poor Shae. 🥹
me too
I literally got a lump in my throat watchin Muchu going into the ring for his first class, so calm and confident.
He’s the best! 🤩
Our SUPER BOY MUSHU❤
YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS me tooooooooooooo Mushu's personality is the bomb!
I can't imagine how stressed out you were when you couldn't go home with Jiminy. I absolutely love how you approach horse shows and the positive encouragement you give your students and horses. You really do teach them it is the enjoyment and improving oneself that matters, not the ribbon. You are an amazing lady and the students and horses are so fortunate to have you in their lives! Seeing Mushu so calm is because you have been a calm confident leader for him.
So glad Jiminey is ok. Your students and horses did great. Mushu is the sweetest boy.
Mushu, "I got this momma, I make you proud of me"! he is so darn sweet x Thank goodness Jiminy is ok x
I know this video is all about Mushie, but every time I see Beauty, I can not believe how young she is. She was exactly what you needed.
I missed the name of your creame/palomino pinto?
@@joannahatton99I think you are talking about Arlo in the video. Beauty is the gray and white tobiano.
@@joannahatton99Its Zazu😊
My favorite part was seeing the girls play with Mushu and him responding just loving it. The back and forth between them was so heart-warming.
My sister is 17 years older than me and the reason I became a horse girl.
She gave me responsibilities and helped me groom and tack up until she saw what I could do by myself and then she expected me to complete everything very very well. I remember feeling so proud of myself for doing a good job. I couldn't lift the saddle up and it was the only thing I couldn't do by myself and I figured out that if I took my horse into the shed where the saddles were stored (she hung them from the rafters with ropes) that I could maneuver my horse underneath and lower it with the rope onto his back.
It wasn't a chore. It was an achievement, an accomplishment.
Video games and screen time doesn't teach you how much you are capable of. The self-sufficient skills these youngsters are learning from you will set an attitude and confidence that will transfer to other areas of their lives. ❤
Mushie the pro..I hope the appt is ok.
ozarklisa1199 Thank you for sharing the wonderful gift your sister taught you. I couldn't agree with you more regarding hands on lessons of life.
Congratulations to all the riders. So proud of Mushu. He's a little superstar. I cannot believe Baghera is 30. She looks fantastic, but they all have a common denominator. Shae. Good job!
She’s a rockstar! I love that mare so much.
Mushu adjusted so well to the horse show environment! He has an A+ mind! All the horses and riders did fabulous! I am so glad Jiminey is okay! That was scary! Bagheera does not look 30! She looks and moves like she's still in her teens. Thank you for taking us along on this wonderful show experience! 💕
Mushu did very very well as did all your horses. The girls did a great job too! Hope they all went home happy. Happy Jimmie is much better❤❤❤❤❤❤
Shae,
Your closing remarks were gold. Congratulations on horsemanship and then focus on inner personal and interpersonal skills. Complimented their teamwork and 'no snarkiness' is just wonderful music to my ears. No mean horsey girls at your barn! Kindness, cooperation, helping and supporting each other are more important than ribbons and competition. You are a wonderful teacher and these are things that make your program a safe and happy place for young women to learn and grow. Wonderful. CH
👍🏻
OMG my heart skipped a beat when I saw jiminey standing with his head down and favoring his leg. I'm so glad he's ok.
All the horses and students did great. What a clothes line full of ribbons, all colors!!
And Mushu was such a good boy. Took everything in stride. I love his chunky lacy butt.😅😊❤❤
Please tell whoever did Mushu's mane, that they did an awesome job. His mane looked gorgeous.
So glad you heart horse is okay.
So wonderful to see these young Horsewomen praising their horses after their classes and the work they do themselves
So relieved that Jimminy is ok.
Everyone did great! And Mushu ❤oh my goodness ❤ it’s like seeing a butterfly emerge. He is such a dream pony.
The way you get emotional over your horses is just heartwarming . Just wanted to add , I thought your student on Bagheera looked marvelous ( they looked good together)
First of all, it was nice to breathe a sigh of relief that Jiminy is okay. I got a little choked up seeing how well Mushu did - it was a long day for him, and he did you proud. Bagheera does NOT look 30 - she was beautiful! What a little trooper Zazu is. Seems like he will do anything that's asked of him. I knew Beauty would do well because, well, she's amazing! I also love watching you with the students. They are too young to truly appreciate the gift they have in what you do and how you do it...but they will...!
Just looking at Mushu makes me smile. Love his feather, speckles, spots, mane & tail, and especially his personality. He's just an all-together cool horse! Bagheera looked so regal and Zazu and Beauty were so good! ...and so happy that Jiminy is OK. Well done everyone!
Shae, just wanted to tell you how beautiful your horses are. You must be so proud. What a bond you have with Mushu. I would never know that Bugheera is 30 years old. She looks fantastic! So glad to hear that Jiminey is okay. Congratulations to everybody!! Good job!!❤
I’m relieved Jiminy is ok. I was scared there for a bit. All your students and horses did so well! You should be proud! ❤
IMO, no one would guess Bagheera's age, the reason being the first class care and love she receives. She is gorgeous as they all are! It was fun watching everyone compete! I absolutely loved watching them all, but Mushu is a particular favorite of mine. He's soooooo sweet, and he did so well. Good news about Jiminey!
Mushu is the most beautiful and calm horse ❤❤
This was an emotional roller coaster for me starting with Mushu’s debut and Jiminey not feeling well. All the students were so calm and confident. Shae, you deserve a standing ovation as an instructor, building sound young women and proving you know how to acquire and train horses. Appreciate all your hard work, positivity and love❣️ 💖🐎
I love all of your horses, but Mushy has my heart. He is adorable.
All the horses and children did wonderfully! They looked so professional and relaxed out in the arena. That is a testament to your schooling at Free Spirit Equestrian. Thank you for taking us along. And of course Mushu was adorable. My favorite part was when he played with the girl's fingers with his lips through the stall door. I love his kind and sweet attitude!
Thank God Jiminy is feeling better!! Congratulations to all horses and riders.❤🎉
😊❤ Hi Shae and Kyle and students!! 😅 I'm so proud of all of you and I don't even know the students!! I was especially impressed that when Jiminey had to leave everyone adjusted so beautifully!! Shae you were so amazing at staying focused with the students and horses at the show. I know that Jiminey is your special baby boy; I don't think I could have held it together the way you did!! Kyle thank you so much for also being so adaptable and taking care of Jiminey!! That helped Shae and the students so much!! I'm also so impressed with the way the students worked together, and very hard, before and after the show!! I know it must have been difficult for the student/s that were going to show Jiminey. But you would never know it! And as an added bonus you guys racked up an impressive amount of ribbons!! 😮😅 As Shae says, it's not placing in a class that is most important. It's how well you and the horses do in different places. 😊 And of course I can't end this without saying how awesome Mushu was!! He is such a willing, sweet and curious boy!! He was amazing!! 😅 Way to go FSE TEAM, all humans and horses!! 😃 I'm so happy that I found your channel!! It makes me feel proud too to be even a distant part of your program!! Luv to all!! 😊❤❤
Somehow I just knew that Mushu would be like: "that's right, enjoy my awesomeness" going into the ring. He is SUCH a charmer ❤
I am so in awe of your calmness. I was worried the entire time about Jiminy until you gave the update. I had to go back and rewatch the showing to enjoy it. You held your composure so well! You are a solid professional.
I cried for 10 seconds then pulled it together lol
@@freespiritequestrian
Girl you're tough as nails,
soft as leather,
sweet as a rose,
smart as a fox.
@@user-ii4zf5iq3t awww thank you 😊
Once again a sweet confident horse trained by Shay. He is interested in what is going on but not freaking out.
What a Big Day for Everyone, Shae👍
Mushy's time to Shine❤ ... he did!
So glad Mushu's first show went well. He looked great. It was also wonderful to see Bagheera in the show ring. I would have loved to be a little girl showing that graceful black mare. Her tail is looking particularly lush these days. Congratulations to all your students!
You want to cry, Shea, I teared up when Mushu trotted into the ring for the very first time... I am so proud of him and his handler!! All the horses and rides did phenomenally well ❤❤❤
Respect to all your students who participated in this show! Love all your horses! And love all your SHOW videos - so very interesting.
I was AGONIZING for Jim and you, Shae.
Thankful he is OK!❤
Poor Jiminy!! I’m so glad he’s feeling better. It’s so hard when our babies don’t feel like themselves.
Congratulations to all your students and handler. The horses did fantastic!!
Shae you have to be so proud of yourself, you’ve put in so much hard work.
The horses looked AMAZING!!!
I love Mushu’s feather, they look so great when they’re all clean, that’s a feat in itself to keep up with I’m sure. He has personality plus!!!
So many beautiful ribbons to celebrate!
I remember so fondly, the days of taking my horse group to shows. Saturday was so spent primping, one girls mom always bought pizza. I had so much fun with those kids. We went everywhere, tack shops, trail rides, just having a blast. I miss them.
This is Cathy...The girls did so well and as always the horses did and looked AMAZING!! I I literally cried when you said Jiminy was ok!! I was so worried about him and you that it was such a relief to hear.. ❤️🐎❤️ PS Mushi was AMAZING!!!
I’m so glad Jiminy is doing okay. Well done to everyone showing today, you all did so well. Mushu is such a star xx
Everyone did so good!!! So proud of Mushu. He's such a little sweetheart ... just love him! Congratulations to all!
Oh I so needed a Mushu moment. I am having surgery tomorrow and I am so nervous. He is cheering me up.❤
Sending prayers. ❤️🙏👼
@@hanginginthere825 Thank you so much
Good luck, sure it will go well 💜
Sending love and prayers to you. ❤ 🙏
Best of luck!
Zazu looked like he was with the zen master the entire time. 😂 He is such a chill horse.
All the FSE lovelies representin' beautifully.
And of course, Mushu, as always, just being the most especially, Special Boy.
I still remember when you first started training Mushu. He's grown up so much! Proud of you Shea!!! Relived that it was nothing serious with Jiminey and that he just needed to drink and rest up. The students are all beaming
Mushu was awesome, as they all were ! This is your blue ribbon for all your hard work with your students and your horses. You can see the results.
PS..keep us in the loop on sweet Jimmeny
Mushu is literally the most adorable ever!! I’m glad That Jiminy is ok. Please do an update video of him..❤ he is so loved! Your students did such an amazing job with the horses ❤ what a wonderful video.! It shows everything about being involved, not just showing up and riding!! Owning a horse takes so much time energy commitment and money. You really do show the other side of being an owner/trainer. Thank you.
So glad Jiminy is ok. Your students did very well! I like how you pointed out that the horse and showmanship was key.
I absolutely love how you talk to your students. You always encourage and compliment them.
Mushu was a super star; alert yet calm and willing and really looked like he was enjoying the whole experience. All your horses looked wonderful and the students are getting learning that they will never forget. So glad Jimminy is better. Scary! When things go wrong with horses, they go wrong fast. Kudos to you for holding it together for the rest of the day and encouraging your students in class after class.
Your footage of Mushu performing is excellent. It really shows off his beautiful head and face, and his unique color. He is a beautiful horse, completely beautiful all over. I teared up when you said Jiminy was ill...and more when you said he was going to be okay. Then again...when Mushu was in the ring showing off "his stuff". Great content. Thank you.
Mushu stood as a professional show horse, great job to all the horses!
Your students did well. Glad they learn the whole cycle of prep, participation and cleanup/put away after.
When I was little I had a ballet teacher who was very good kind. That was sixty years ago. These young students will remember their teacher and these lessons for the rest of their lives.
Mushu is just the cutest! ❤ He's a little, round sausage of a horse and his face is so expressive! What a sweet boy!
The Smoosh is a big boy now 🥲 he looked so proud of himself! Great job girls you all did an amazing job 💜
So glad Jiminy was ok & it was nothing major. Great show, everybody did great, girls & horses! 🎉🐴
Those kids should be very proud of themselves, everyone was awesome . So great to see this horsemanship!❤
Oh Lillian's smile with the ribbon was so awesome!
😁 🎀 🐎
Everyone did so well!!
Congratulations Mushu on first show and best of all so happy Jiminy is doing well at home❤
Jiminy! I’m so glad he’s ok.. my heart almost broke, I could tell you were trying so hard to be ok, and finish the day. It’s how the lifestyle can be. , one second their fine, next their not.
Congrats to the whole team and the horses. Mushu has done so well. Glad that Jiminey is feeling better.🤗
Fantastic job girls and horses!! Yay!! 🎉🎉🎉
Shay you're teaching them all very good! My heart dropped whenever you said Jimminy wasn't feeling good. I'm beyond relieved that he's ok! And can't forget Mushu!! He's such a good boy and so funny! 🥰💞
I’m so glad that Jimminy is ok ✅. I was so worried 😮
All the girls and horses did so well today !! A testament to your teaching and leadership skills ❤❤❤
Mouchie is soooo sweet !
So glad Jiminy is feeling better, that's such a scare. Really awesome day at the show, Mushu handled it like a pro!
I admire how you coach your students as well as train your horses. Competition can get ugly very quickly but when done in a manner of true sportsmanship and teamwork it can really build character. Tje girls supporting each other is such an important lesson especially in the teen years when a lot of media and culture teach them to tear each other down. Seeing them work together and in good spirits, as you said with good attitudes was just as great to see as the horses and the ribbons. You're an amazing teacher, Shae!
Another great video! Your students & the horses did so well & their focus & sportsmanship were top notch. "The Mush" did so well for his first show...kind of like your child on their first day of school. Was glad that Jiminy turned out to be OK. That was worrisome but dehydration can be fixed....some fluids to go please. Awesome job everyone.
Yaaaaay Mushu. ❤❤❤ he's just awesome. I'm so relieved Jiminy is ok 😊😊😊
Seeing Jimminee so sad with hanging his head - I was so worried! So glad he is ok….
Mushu did absolutely amazing! He is such a cool horse for his age. And to see Beauty also at such young age so calm and relaxed. And then Bagheera sprinting with her 30 years - it makes my heart sing to see her so well! It’s a great experience for the young riders. And I wish 30 years ago in Germany there would have been in hand classes. I only did very few shows - and it was ridden trail. It’s great your students can have so many experiences and the horses as well! If I would have a child and would be in your area - I definitely would want you to teach them!
So proud of you Mushu❤ couldn't ask for a better first showing. You did a great job listening, and responding to your trainer. Such a sweet and gentle spirit you are Mushie.🩷❤️🩷
What a wonderful first show experience for these young girls. I love how you praise each of them no matter the results. You truly have a fantastic program, one I would of loved to be in as a young rider. Mushu did fantastic on his first show, what a cutie! Everyone did so good and I am so happy to hear Jiminy is doing good!
The little girl are just adorable and looking sharp. I love that you are teaching them the responsibility of owning a horse.
I never knew what horse shows were all about, so thank you for these heartwarming and educational videos. ❤
Under 10mins so happy for you, fse, and mushu!!! Also so glad Jiminy is good!!!😊😊😊
❤❤❤
This is why I love your channel so much, the fact that you make the horse's well-being a priority. Thank God Jimney is okay! I said a prayer that it was nothing serious. Not to say dehydration can't be, you know what I mean. And I love that Mushy did so well I love him he has such a big personality.
So grateful Jiminy is doing well ❤Thanks so much for sharing this show with us, Shae❣️ So enjoyed watching your students horsemanship and teamwork under your care. Truly a joy to watch ❤️Mushu is so amazing and sweet🥰🐴❣️I love all of your horses!!! ❤
I'm so glad Jiminy, okay, such a worry for you having to cope with not being with him.
Lovely to see the students having a great time with their chosen mounts. Mushi behaved like a champion. ❤
Mushu did such a good job, everyone looked great and did so well, and Jiminey is ok thank goodness.🤗🤗🤗
Congratulations to your lovely students and of course all the gorgeous horses, Mushu is a star and Bagheera oh still showing them how it’s done, so glad Jiminey is ok
Your students look very confident handling the horses! They are lucky to have such a wonderful trainer teaching them the ropes.
I am ALWAYS amazed at your talents! You are not only incredible with each of your horses, but you are wonderful with each one of your students as well❗️
The life skills that you are so patiently teaching them will remain with them no matter what they choose to do in life. Thank you for making our world a better and more loving place 🤩🙏❣️
❤ Mushi is so cute and happy. He just loves attention. He's watching to make sure you're getting every inch of his body. He loves looking gorgeous ❤
Good that Jiminy was okay...that was scary! The students looked great and all of them did such a good job! Watching The Mush was the cherry on top. He took it all in stride being his first experience showing and props to his handler! Looks like everyone had fun! 🏆⭐️
And good job to the teacher. It’s wonderful that you get the students out to,have different experiences with the horses. As you said they’re learning horsemanship not just riding. You must be exhausted! I hope you have a chance to put your feet up and have a glass of something good 😇
So excited for Mushu!!
Whenever the music starts I start crying. It happens in every video you make. 🤩 Your sweet stories tug at my heartstrings. Congratulations Mushu, way to go Buddy. Thank goodness Jiminy is OK ♥

Mushu is totally awesome in his first show. Once again, the team did great. ❤❤
If there was a cutest horse on earth class, Mushu would win, hands down!
Love how proud of your horses (and students) you are, but I also know so much of their success is because of the amazing amount of work and heart you put into these guys! So awesome to see it pay off in moments like this.
So glad Jiminy is ok. I did start crying seeing Mushu walking in the ring. So proud of him. Thank you for taking us with you.
I am so impressed by the way you prioritize your horses' welfare over their performance.
Seeing Jiminy not feeling well just broke my heart. I am so glad he is feeling better now. You must be so proud of Mushu and all your horses and students. You are a fantastic teacher!
Yay... Mushu is my favorite!
I love how involved you are in every aspect of your horses lives. This is a beautiful horse. He will enjoy having some special attention.
I’ve never seen Mushu look so handsome and grownup. 👍👍
Your students are amazing, you are such a good teacher Shae. These girls have such a good foundation. Care of the horses and cleaning up afterwards. So proud of YOU, YOUR STUDENTS AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL HORSES. Thank you for taking us along, it brings back wonderful memories. I am so excited. Glad to hear Jimmie is fine. I was really worried.
Mushu, seems on the small side for a Gypsy Vander or everyone is really tall. I love drafts. I wish I knew about you a few years ago, I would have given you a horse that was absolutely stunning. She needed someone that had a special touch. She was Percheron and Appaloosa she came from a herd of really great bloodlines.
Traditional cobs, traditional gypsy Vanners are typically 12-15hh, he’s 13.3
@@freespiritequestrianYes, the pony sizes are the most popular, common and useful in the UK and Ireland.
Moosh is da bomb! He performed like a pro! I see the competition is basically the things I've seen you do in training. He learns so quickly and tries to please! He is a very special horse. I'm so impressed with your students too! The horse and rider become one in the ring. Great job to students, horses, AND instructor!!
Thinking of Jiminety the whole time, boy when he feels bad he really shows it.Students and horses showed really well, congrats to all.Mushu charming as ever..
So happy to watch Mushu enjoy his first horse she with Erin. Really startled by Jiminey not feeling well. I can just imagine how difficult that must have been to see him in distressed, but very glad you had Kyle and the vet making sure it was something that was easily resolved and all is well at FSE Stables. It is a treat to watch your students feel confident, with a few nerves, but overall happy, involved with the horses, everyone looking shiny, tidy, and having fun. Well done, Mama Shae, Mushu, Zazu, Beauty, Bagheera and heart horse, Jiminey at home feeling better!!!! 💗♥️🐎🐎🐎🐎♥️
Brings back memories of showing when I was in high school! So many moving parts and controlled chaos. 😂
I used to show 4H at that fair grounds growing up. Joined the military, got married, went to England (like Mushu!) and a lot of other places, and have been away from home for so long. Its so nice to see familiair scenes from home, Michigan, and horses. Thank you for showing how beautiful and green everything is. Thank you for giving me a taste of home and horses
