#8 Getting to the Mind with Charley Snell

Aug 05, 2021

Have you ever experienced a time when you and your horse weren't one mind and one body? (as the quote above talks about).

They may have had a different idea than yours- maybe they wanted to go slow when you wanted to speed up OR they wanted to go back with the herd when you wanted to leave it. They may have been worried about their safety when you were hoping to have a nice ride on the trail. 

Learning how to get your horse's mind with you is essential to having a safe and successful partnership. As I shared in a previous blog post, not having Suede's mind with me resulted in a bad wreck but also led me to studying with Charley Snell. Getting the horse's mind is at the core of Charley's teaching. 

This topic is HUGE and presented quite a challenge for my brain to try summarize into a blog post. I decided to put together a video showing a few ways Charley teaches to get your horse's mind with you. 

I hope you enjoy it 😊
