Bridleless Training

Ok, thank you.

Would definitely like to see some vids or hear some progress you and your horse make!

There will probably be a thread up soon on here; really wish it was summer time so I could work her more and get more videos!

If your horse is already finished to work of your seat and leg, then you have the ability to go bridleless....because your hands will merely be holding the reins and used for nothing else.

I'd also be interested in seeing a video of your progress doing bridleless, I find it very cool.
Hope you'll be able to!

From original post:
(we're already working on her moving off leg, & seat)

I will, but I've been so busy lately and the weather has been horrid. Hopefully sometime next week it'll be better... I hate winter weather.

And that's awesome...you are working your way to your goal!

She's only been broke to ride for five months.

Ah, yes winter weather here in Alberta sucks! I am so happy this year to have an indoor arena to ride in for the first winter ever!!!!!! My horse will actually be fit come spring!

Riding a horse bride-less is not something you train. It is the end result of good training and consistent cues by the rider.

If you can not move every inch of your horse with your legs and seat with a bit/bridle then you will not be able to teach them with out one.

There are many different ways to train a horse but no matter what or how you do it the end results should be a responsive well trained and light horse. Only then can you expect a horse to work without a bridle.
