Horses For LIFE Magazine May 2006 Issue#9

Incredible footage of a rarely seen sight. A woman Portuguese Bullfighter. Watch the Video of the horse work with no reins into a double pirouette, work together with his rider, with an athleticism and bravery that the Lusitano is so admired for.

Please note that you will need high speed internet to access this video.

This month at Horses For LIFE, not only do we celebrate the Lusitano through Patricia Pellen and through the words of Sylvia Loch, but are very excited to present the SENSE METHOD and Mary Debono - a new ongoing series on helping both horses and riders.

As always we have two free articles this month. The first is an introduction to Mary Debono, and the second is on helping the swayback horse, an excellent article not only for presenting the answer but in presenting different concepts, including how horses protect themselves and their bodies. Special this month, watch the short "free" video clip available for our registered members!

Please note that you must be registered and logged in to see the free articles.

Patricia Pellen: A Woman Portuguese BullFighter

A wonderful representation of the skill of rider and horse in the Portuguese bullfighting rink. Extraordinary in not only the skill level shown, but unique in presenting one of the few female bullfighters world wide.

Watch the incredible video  for our subscribers only, from the incredible double canter pirouetter with no hands on the bridle by the rider, to piaffe, to charging the bull, a true representation of how horse and rider find that ultimate level where they can work as one.

She gropes for an explanation of the bullfighting magic caballero Pellen hinted at: "If you read Hemingway you'll see it's really an art. The relationship between man and bull is like a kind of love."

Please note this is for our subscribers only. For our registered members see the next article!

Who is Mary Debono? The Sense Method

This month we are pleased to introduce a new contributing editor and new series to Horses For LIFE.  While I must admit I much have a preference for helping the horse find health, and releases from his back, as I do truly believe that good and correct riding are healthy for both horse and rider, I must admit I was blown away with the depth of the insights I saw when I first began reading about the Sense Method.
