To My Class and Loyal Readers:

Learn how to lead a horse from the Waterhole rituals at Liberty with the Carolyn Resnick method. The fist step, mediation, practice with your horse to build your leadership instincts.

Spending time in nature, meditating with your horse, has a profound positive affect by giving you more ability in knowing how to lead and how to connect with a horse. You will gain instincts you thought you never had. I see it happen all the time. Gratitude with horses increases your understanding of them.

I have noticed that nature lovers have a natural way with animals. They know how to be with animals and how to lead them without disturbing the life flow of the animal.

Your Natural Instincts:

My first step in my horsemanship classes is to help the student to develop their insight into the mind and nature of a horse. In this process the student is able to connect back to their original, intuitive instincts.

As you become acquainted with nature, by Sharing Territory with your horse, you can start to depend on your intuition to know how to connect … Read more

The Online Waterhole Rituals Course
If your horse could talk I’ll bet he would say, “Please let’s take the course so we can get to know each other better, where we both can get to be our authentic selves, so we may dance at Liberty effortlessly, easily and naturally”.

We still have a few seats available in my next online courses on the Waterhole Rituals. We only have 10 seats available for the Insiders Circle. In the Extended Circle we are already over half full. Both classes start July 22nd. We would love to have you join us.

From the positive feedback we have received, the course is a wonderful medium for everyone to learn the Waterhole Rituals. My program is created to support and enhance all equestrian pursuits.

You and your horse will share bonding rituals natural to horses to deepen the connection and enhance the performance of your horse. These rituals, when shared by humans and horses, develop an ability to match each others movements like a mirrored reflection. It is the most nurturing dance you can experience with a horse from the ground. Your movements become one with a horse without training and without thought. It is … Read more

It’s really touching that people have been responding so deeply on the subject of such a small issue regarding a horse being so unwilling to have a halter put on, or the horse being so freaked out about the need to rip away from a human, because of the distasteful feeling of being with a human.

I appreciate that many people are willing to take the long journey to build a relationship with a horse as Robin and Carry have done with Pony.

In the traditional programs of leaning how to fix problems with horses, the problem gets fixed from an overall system and does not take in to consideration of the needs of the individual horse and human. Recently I watched a Youtube of a horse, he has a similar problem as Pony, not as bad, but still a problem of putting a bridle. The method just used force and persistence at the time the horse was fighting to get away.

I am working on my book and I just finished my prologue and what I wrote really pertains to the subject of how to approach really big problems such as with Cary’s experience with her horse. It requires … Read more

Today’s blog comes to you courtesy of my apprentice, Lila.

Working on the ranch as Carolyn’s apprentice student I am having many opportunities to appreciate the subtleties of the Waterhole Rituals and learning what creating willing relationships with a horses REALLY looks like.

As a professional consultant and coach, working at training people for the past 25 years, working intensely with horses for the past 12 of those years, I feel that I have a good grasp on what it takes to create willing partnership in my students and trainees etc. But that being said, I must tell you that what horses are showing and teaching me is dramatically expanding that understanding.  I want to share with you the continued evolution of what my horse Sebastian and I are creating together.

Some of you may have heard about my experience with my horse Sebastian at liberty in the arena a few weeks ago; how I was playing with him looking to see what training opportunities would evolve.  We played with a barrel and I learned about the power of focus and sharing leadership though reciprocal movements.   As I have observed Carolyn with horses I see that with some horses

Hello again. Today we are talking horses again or rather I was talking horses just last month on a radio show and I wanted to play you some of that today.

You may remember a post from a few months back with a clip from the online radio show Animal Talk Naturally, on which I had appeared. Dr. Kim Bloomer, one of the hosts, was kind enough to add a comment then to say I would be appearing again which I did last month and below is an excerpt from that show.
