I found this website called science of motion which I am currently in love with. This man basically studies the science of the horse's movement and focuses on the certbral collum and how humans riding them effects it and incorperates this knowledge into his training. In other words, he's a LOGICAL horseman with COMMON SENSE, such people are hard to

Logical horseman > Natural horseman, I presume. ;)

noooooo way i'm afraid so called "natrual horseman" are as far from logical as you can get. The things they do to horses horrifies me, Shadow is still terrified of anything sticklike including umbrella's and whips from his training when he was younger by a "natural horseman".

Sorry haha little rant there, horse whisperers/natural horsemen are a pet hate of mine, they make me very angry because they say one thing and do another.

ooh, thanks for mentioning that site, it looks great! not a stupid thing to post about at all :D i had something i was going to show you (horse related) but can't remember what now.. hmm.. remind me next time we talk and i'll see if i've remembered) so glad you've found something that looks like it'll really help you with Ally!

Hooray for Shadow! It is exciting, I know exactly what you mean :)

lol I always think of showing you things then forget what they are. It does look good, watch some of the videos! there's one with him working with his wife's horse Chazot just walking in the arena and it's awesome they're feet are moving together, that's what i've been trying to do with Murphy though it's nowhere near that gracefull yet lol, i'm going to try that with Ally too I hope I can ride her one day. I know I don't "need" too ride her but she's not the sort of horse who enjoys just being a 'companion horse' you know?

Hehehe yes tis very exciting :D specially as he'll be 27 this year!! Scary! But he's looking better then he did two years ago so i'm not freaking out yet lol.
