We&#8217;re just starting work on lead changes, you can see he&#8217;s often late to switch behind. This is our first time galloping bareback and bridleless.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve gotten a few questions on this: no, we don&#8217;t do Parelli. I&#8217;ve done endurance and dressage and recently got interested in reining, and started trying Monty bareback and bridleless to see how my balance and cues were related to reining.<\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t given him much formal training, so this was just for fun. Too much of this wouldn&#8217;t be a good idea for either of us, and I don&#8217;t suggest others try riding this way unless you&#8217;re very comfortable with your horse and with basic training concepts. That said, it&#8217;s a blast and a great way to test aids\/communication.<\/p>\n<p>He is trained from the ground up. Didn&#8217;t get him until he was 4 though, so he had a late start. He had a lot of fear to work through in starting, so we went fairly slowly. Because he can still be a nervous horse (truly, though I know it doesn&#8217;t show in the video) he has really enjoyed the tackless work, as it doesn&#8217;t allow the rider to cheat and rush.<\/p>\n<p>Just goes to show when you have a great relationship, a great seat, and no fear you can have this sort of freedom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bareback, Bridleless, and free!
