I loved this lesson! It confirms that jumping is really knowing how to ride between fences.
I absolutely enjoyed watching this lesson. Way back in the day I used to ride and work at your family’s stable in Mequon, WI. There was Appleridge, Pigeon Creek and Highland Hunters. I started out with Michael Bea at Highland Hunters. AMAZING what you have accomplished... what most horsey girls just dream about. MAJOR KUDUS AND CONGRATULATIONS BEEZIE!!! You are truly a magnificent rider. Wish I could have taken lessons with you!
I applaud the students! It's never fun when you have days that things just aren't connecting. Thank you for the video!
I love watching and learning from one of the top riders in the world. Very informative and interesting. Let's go ride!
I really appreciate that you share lessons like this. I think it’s really important for younger riders and lower level riders do you watch and learn from lessons like this where you can see the mistakes and the progression. It really helps to be able to hear the instructor and what they are teaching the students. I think your videos like this are very helpful because there are so many riders that take lessons and have instructors that don’t teach quality lessons because they may be under educated and not as interested in teaching or working on fundamentals and I just think there are too many instructors out there that skip important details and rush students into getting to the jumping portion because it’s more interesting for the instructor. Please continue to make videos with lessons and share.
So true- there are Hunter/jumper stables in my area that don't even teach proper groundwork, I believe that is the foundation for ALL disciplines, you need to learn how to balance and properly influence the horse with your seat- I got lucky with both my barn and my instructor, she has a dressage background, she is really thorough- a year in and I haven't even started to canter yet! I appreciate her approach, but I am SO ready to canter, I really do feel READY now, my trot FINALLY feels pretty stable, sitting and rising, though my sitting could no doubt use more work stylistically, and we are doing some good, balanced circles- so she says, they don't feel that way to me!
Anyway, I digress!
Groundwork and basics are important for a reason though!
that is the nicest arena i’ve ever seen in my life 💕
What better than to watch Beezie while quarantined and unable to ride .
I enjoyed this lesson so much! I usually don't swell on equestrian side of youtube, it tends to be quite awful... but this is like breath of fresh air honestly. Happy horses, smart trainer and riders doing things they're capable of, building up the basics in a dynamic and fun way... I would love to take lessons with you, I really really love the vibes
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for sharing these lessons with all of us! It is such a privilege to learn even this tiny bit from Beezie where we may not otherwise be able to so directly! LOVE this, please keep them coming!!
I'm not able to ride for a few weeks, and i find these videos so helpful and informative. Can't wait to start riding again so I can apply all iv'e learned!
These are so interesting. Thank you for making them available.
Really appreciating that you guys are sharing your wealth of knowledge!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Most of your subscribers will never be fortunate to have a lesson from such a great rider as Beezie , so to watch is the next best thing. It's also very good for us to hear upper level riders preaching basics and practicing!
I love these videos! Lessons with Beezie, it doesn't get any better than this. I'm learning so much by watching, thank you!
Keep them coming pls 😀
I've watched Beezie for a long time, it's interesting to watch her and her students 2 point. More straight up and down out of the saddle. My trainer has me practically folded over.
Don’t stop making these videos absolutely love them! Love how much flatwork basics that are implemented in Beezies training
I would honestly do anything in the world to get a lesson with beezie
Love this! Thank you! I rode with this playing like a podcast
Great Idea 🥰 I'm going to try this out as well
Fantastic method 💯
great! I have been watching these since my lesson barn shut down lessons for a little while during this quarantine craziness
Looking forward to trying this with my own horse. Excellent lesson!
I lov these. It helped me with my lessons
Unable to ride due to quarantine. These videos are keeping me going! Thank you!!
Thank you so much! Very grateful to Beezie and John.
Great content! I loved the video
John and Beezie, Thank you so much for these awesome videos! As a trainer, I'm always trying to present fresh material. Stay safe and healthy.
Thank you. Really enjoy these. Great lessons to practice now at home
Thank you for this lesson!
thank you for more videos like this, great inspiration!!!
Love the exercises😍😍 I will definitely be doing them
Enjoyed watching the video.. I even found myself "sitting behind" the vertical in my chair!
GREAT LESSON! THANK YOU FOR SHARING!...
Good stuff Beezie.
Love love love these. Please do mlre
Hi, thank you for this lesson, that's so simple yet brilliant. Could you please share the distances between the 3 cavalettis for canter? I would very much appreciate it
Thank you so much for presenting these videos online. May I ask what distance you used for the canter cavaletti in this segment. Is it a standard five stride to five stride distance or is it set as a longer five stride to five stride distance in order to do the 5 to 7? Thank you.
I loved this lesson! What is the striding for the middle lines? I would like to try this myself.
My guess would be around 18 meters?
Cecilia McAlear i recon 5 strides so that would be around 24 paces x
What do you mean? Thank you.
Bays only at your barn?
I would love to see a video of what you guys are doing with your four year olds under saddle :)
Can you do a video on introduction to canter
I think I am Claudia, haha- I hear the EXACT same thing about the reins, I am bad about letting them run out! I just want to have gentle contact, I try too hard!
i LOVE LOVE LOVE this! may i ask what the spacing is on the cavaletti‘s in the center?
Kyia Nichols he said in their other video they were 15 steps apart..but that the exact distance doesn’t matter too much and you can adjust it to your arena or horses stride however you like :)
Thank you, these are so interesting and informative! Just out of curiosity - can anyone board their horse(s) and the Madden facility? How much is the boarding per month?
Hi! At this time, we only have a couple outside students who are in our program, with the exception of retirees. We don't have regular boarders.
johnmaddensalesinc okay, thank you for answering!
Why behind the vertical.pls what does this do?
For this lesson, beezie is trying to get them to have a connection with their seat to slow the horse's canter strides, and exaggerating the connection of the seat by going behind the vertical (so the seatbones connect with the saddle) will help the particular student who isn't sitting deep enough.
What is Beezie referring to when she says "more connection" to Emily?
How do you do that?
Thank you so much for sharing the lesson with us. It’s really important for lower level riders to you watch and learn from lessons like this where you can see the mistakes and the progression. Than you very much for sharing it, highly appreciate it !
Random question. When a horse is in the field and they walk away what do you?
Pony Squad 01 I would keep approaching them and if they walk away just let them walk away and then when they stop walking just walk to them again and if they keep walking away as u go closer I would get someone if u see them around or just keep trying to approach them when they stop walking
Chase them. They’ll learn.
Megan Proffitt my barn has been doing that and my horse still dose not listen honestly he likes running
Are they chasing him on foot or actually making him run until he’s worked up and sweaty?
Megan Proffitt both
im not sure i understand the "take the mouth" cue, isnt there supposed to be a que first to warn the horse you are asking for a speed change? sit deeper in the saddle - if the horse doesnt change speed then make contact. many of these movements can be done with very little hand contact and simple pressure and taps on the reins (just closing the hand tightly instead of relaxed) and the horse can feel that slight change. drive the horse off your leg, sit deeper into the sidepass, close your outside hand, squeeze inside leg, support with outside leg and inside rein. no pulling of the reins necessary.
I wish we knew the levels these riders were at.
How about FEI grand prixs?
yeah im so confused why you keep asking claudia to shorten her reins - they are far from too long. if the horse isnt responding to contact, the answer isnt more contact. please explain why you keep asking for shorter reins with claudia..
Poor Claudia got the worst end of this lesson!
"Mediocrity today, Katherine" ?? Really?? Ouch!
these riders are really tight in the mouth, 2 of these horses has a U-neck, more muscle on the underside than the top, and their mouths are open bracing against the bit while the riders hang onto their mouths for support. you can see the one horse 13:25 could really benefit from some long and low stretching and honestly zero contact on the bit. at multiple times during the lesson the horses nose flung up higher than the poll of its head. this is really a great indication of TOO MUCH contact and poor riding - the horse is trying to escape the immense bit pressure. that horse needs total muscle reconstruction as you can see it has no topline and is very hollow in the back. she also seems to be in low grade pain as she is wincing a bit over the cavaletti and tripped multiple times when the rider takes contact. it looks like she is having back / neck pain from the way she braces against the riders hands. more leg, less hands.
