This will be an on-line video show to share our horses, natural
horseman****p, and natural gaits with each other, and the rest of the
world!
Many people around the world are interested in natural horseman****p
and natural gaits with their Icelandic Horses. Since we are all
geographically spread out, this virtual on-line natural video show
helps us share what we are doing with like-minded owners. We are able
to share with everyone how responsive, intelligent, willing, and
attentive, our horses are. Also, it may help inspire others who may be
interested in a natural way with their Icelandic Horses.
There are no specific cl***** or rules; good / natural horseman****p
and natural gaits are the goal. The virtual show gives owners and
horses a chance to show others their two-way communication, good
partner****ps, not dependant upon tack.
Have someone take a video of you working / playing with your horse (or
set the camera on the fence and turn it on!). Capture some of your
natural horseman****p and natural gaits to share with other Icelandic
Horse owners around the world.
Some of the things you can show are Parelli 7 Games
http://iceryder.net/7games.html,
any type of natural horseman****p groundwork, such as John Lyons, Bill
Dorrance (True Horseman****p Through Feel) http://iceryder.net/future.html,
Clinton Anderson; working therapy horse session, horse quietly
standing for mounting, bareback, gaiting on a loose rein, trail rides,
flexibility and suppling exercises, at-liberty leading, lead-line,
jumping, dressage, tricks, trailer loading, obstacle course, vaulting,
taking Grandma for a ride around the round pen, etc.
Show off your kids with lead-line riding; show off your horses gaiting
naturally! Show off your natural horseman****p. Do you have a new foal?
Share him and his introduction to natural horseman****p.
If you've never been in a show before... not to worry! Don't think
about attire, or your weight, or your hair. It's about the ability to
have two-way communication with the horse, not dependant upon tack.
Tossing out the noseband allows for the horse to tell you if the bit
is bothering him or that he doesn't understand how to use it as a
method of communication (or that your hands are not so good!).
Clicker training? Share it with us!
There will be no judging; everyone wins in this show! Everyone is
invited, from novice horse owners, to kids, to non-riders, to
professional and / or certified trainers and judges. There are no
entry fees, no costs.
We hope to have people from every country enter the show. We'd like to
see the Cheval Islandais, Islandpferd, Islandhast, Islandskehest,
Ijslands paard, Islanninhevonen, islenskihesturinn, Islandisches
pferd, hestur, and the Islandpony all represented!
There is no limit to the number of videos that you can submit. The
more the merrier!
