JUNE 2006 • VOLUME 10 • ©HORSES For LIFE™ Magazine
No matter how much we would like to pretend, nature created him a certain way, and we must respect his way of going. We must respect that he is not clay that we can mold or deform to any shape that we would like to.
At least until now. Now it seems we have horsemen who think they know better! They know better then the basic rules of the FEI. Head ahead of the vertical, approaching the vertical at piaffe. Did you know that is once what the FEI said? Not sure that they do anymore. They seem to want to throw everything away. See they know better. We have riders now who know they are smarter and better then any of the riders of the past. What did they know, those old fuddy duddys?

For thousand of years we have worked with horses, for hundreds we have played with them and worked with them side by side. One thing that we have learned over time is that the one thing we always need to respect is the nature of the horse. 
From the beginning horseman through the ages have had great success when they build upon the horse's natural way of going. Respecting who and what the horse is.
