Great explanation! Thank you! Been trying the 'fence line' technique but wasnt doing well with my less sensitive horse, the error was, of course, on my end. This has cleared up what I need to do! I appreciate your sharing this information!
Really good explaining, I liked that you shared where and when you move your legs and why. Will definitely watch more of your videos, thanks from Sweden!
I'm having a real hard time with this. I'll try facing him against a wall. He'll move his front, but he drags the hind and we end up looking diagonal no matter what I do.
What I do is make sure they know how to move the hind end. Get that solid before teaching the sidepass. If that is done then when teaching the sidepass I tap the area that is lagging with my leg but continue with the sidpass command. Keep tapping that lagging area until they line it up. Then stop and reward. Once they get that reward 1 straight step, 2 steps, etc.
I am honestly asking why you think two is too young for training. He said he's had about 3 months work. I think that's a perfect age. I started all mine super young with ground work but actual riding didn't start til they were two. None of them were over ridden or worked into the ground. My vet never found a problem with their growth or development. So I am curious why you think it's too young. Thanks
@@EssexTed that in NO way justifies starting horses at 2. Horses backs take up to SIX years to fully develop, they are in no way shape or form ready to be carrying a rider and learning all sorts of tricks at two. Notice how many deaths and injuries occur on the track? 2 year old race horses bodies are not ready for the type of strain they are put under
@@bonniemccormack1361 The reason you don't ride two year olds is because their bones aren't done growing, and the weight of a rider puts a big strain on their bones, and if ridden too hard/very often will eventually damage their joints and back. It just leads to a lot more problems later on. I'm not talking about this horse specifically, he says he's had about 60 rides but I'm not sure how much he makes him work.
I'm not sure what you know about equine training, but 2 yo. is when most trainers have them cut, and trained. Next time please know what you are talking about before you make a comment like this. Thank you!

Yes , helps a lot .Thank you Brendon :)
That was good, thanks! Do you have any teaching on leg control, pressure and position of the legs?

thank u i was clue less
beautiful colt what's the difference between a latteral press and sidepass aren't they the same thing
Leg yield not side pass. 2 years old.. what happen to let the horse grow a bit before piling all this on
How on earth can you ride a 2 year old? he's only mature at 6.
There to big at that age and they learn lots of habits over the years but they normally turn them out again till there about 4
Oh Lord, only a 2 year old? I know he's older now but wow. 2 is much much too young. =/

Then don’t watch the video? How about that....

This horse has been well trained before. However, your teaching is not good for a new horse. Thank for sharing.
2 years old horse and you already ride him
This is insane, this is animal abuse

@@chrislarson781 thanks for saying that
Putting all that weight on a baby... shameless.
Two years old is crucial backing time for training. If you aren't a world class trainer then don't pretend like you know what you're doing.
Little and often will be fine,
