"A horse is like a mirror, and it's reflecting what and who you are."


This is just a little diary of my horse life. I teach natural horsemanship and dressage. I am currently working on getting back to L4 Parelli after a car accident and surgery.


I suffered from a fear of failure, as things had not gone according to planned after my time off from my injuries. It had been an paralyzing disability (fear) but my healing is coming along nicely, and I hope to pass my level 4 before the end of 2011.


I don't know where I am going, but I am NOT lost!


I am now reviewing dvd's and books, and blogging my reviews. The link on the left in the categories (DVD Clinician Reviews)will take you straight to it. You will find links to the websites of all dvd clinicians I review and they are located on the left hand side bottom of page of the page. None of the clinicians or trainers I am reviewing, sponsor, endorse or authorize this site. For more info about them please click on thier link.

I hope you enjoy!

Savvy On,
Michelle


I will be giving Savvy Star Ratings based soley on my opinion of it's value to a parelli student as such


***** Must own

**** Must watch

*** Worth watching, but you won't die without it

** Eh' take it with a grain of salt, you will have to filter alot

* OK, but there is better stuff out there to spend your time and money on

0 stars....skip it, it just isn't worth your time.

Cha'Cote's first liberty circles in arena

Well my proudest moment to date! This is Cha'Cote's first time ever going any where besides from the wild to the BLM. From there to his last home, and from there to my home. He was a champ! Took some convincing to get him to let us shut the door on the trailer....but finally he did. Short 7 min drive to where my friend boards. We opened the door. He stuck his head out, and stood there. I was terrified he would rush out and bail on me. Nope! Such a good boy. Then he trusted me to lead him thru the barn. then we went into the arena. I showed him all the walls, played a teeny bit online, then went LIBERTY. I was shocked he went straight to circling me and not leaving, and then a great draw. Looked over my shoulder and my friend was gone. So I shared my excitement with a total stranger and asked her to watch. I was afraid it wouldn't happen again and wanted a witness to tell my friend. He did it again. 'bout 3 circles. So we chated a few min and my friend came back. i was hoopin and hollering, and started to show her. she grabbed her video camera, and he did it AGAIN! She started grooming after a couple of min and I thought she turned the camera off. I didn't know she was this sneaky, but she set it down and left it on. So this is me playing at liberty with Cha'cote for the first time. there a few more videos to come....sorry...so excited I am posting it ALL!
