An interview with Horseback Falconer Jonathon Marshall ( https://www.facebook.com/officialjonathanmarshallshows/ ) I met Jonathon on the UK show circuit - where we are always too busy with our own shows to chat so it's a great opportunity to finallly catch up, find out about falcons, horses, how their minds work, training differences and, well, just about everything on Jonathon's work and life.

During the Coronavirus Lockdown of 2020, I've been hosting a live q&a session called The Social Distance Social Club Join us today for chats on - finding the confidence you used to have on horses, finding the joy and loving the process....

Be sure to avoid taking other people's opinions on board - especially when it's the opinion of whether something is scary or not!
"The Emperor's got no pants!" Get rid of your brave pants, and replace them with bite sized lesson plans backed by sensible decisions. Such as not talking to the Brave Pants Believers. To be blunt, you can do it.
Lessons from the weighing scales, lessons from the gym, lessons from the stars, and lessons from the Starbucks
It doesn't matter what your horse does, it only matters how you react to it.... a horsey version of the following maxim - "It's not the events in your life, it's the meaning you give to those events"
Okay folks bear with me ...I'm not going to bore you with endless stories of my adventures in Korea, but I'm glad to have posted these that I have. Kids, rain, wind, slippy footing, horses going to the very best of their ability, riders not even holding the reins or even looking where they're going, all these videos that I posted serve the purpose to remind us all that it's possible. It's possible. Once we accept that whatever we wish to do is possible.... and when we know it's possible .... then we can break it down into bite-size pieces to achieve any goal. So what's your goal?
First broadcast in 2018 - and SO relevant to the current Coronavirus situation. RemeMber folks, watch the news, get informed, get a plan ....THEN TURN IT OFF!
Learning to deal with danger - taking a chainsaw course for example - is a skill. And if it has been a while since you, say, learned to drive or scuba dive or whatever, then you can fall out of that mindset in which you CAN be in control of risk.... but if you did it before, then you can regain that mindset again Please leave a comment, and share if it's been of use to you or you can think of anyone it can be useful to.

If a lesson goes well straight away, there's nothing wrong with ending it there. You don't HAVE to do an hour, especially near sunset when you might not have the time to fix it if you persisit and it goes less well...
So you want to do event A or activity A and you find your progress is off-course. Well, if you have to take a step back, or a sidewards move, to get back on course, that's fine! Progress is NOT linear :)
... if you make your plans in midwinter when it all seems pointless, and stick to it, in 100 days summer will begin and you will hit it running!
If someone wanted to pull barges around the fens of Norfolk and bought a horse called Rodeo Bill from Texas - how do you thiunk that would turn out? Would you have repect for such a mis-match? Of course not! Everyone ends up miserable. Horsemanship goes way beyond achieving the physical result.....
Just having fun and playing and you'll never get better. Just having lessons and you'll never have fun. Do both! :)
Episode 33 : This episode is all about dumbing down horses.... Allowing them to fail to fulfill low expectations. It's really not fair when they are so much more capable.
It's your horse, your project, your dream, - so why listen to anyone else who may be saying "Are you hacking yet?", "Are you jumping yet?" ---"Are you using YOUR horse how I think you should......." It's YOUR plan - not someone else's.
Talking about one of the three main issues - booking bolting and rearing - that tends to spoil an otherwise enjoyable ride.
A cautionary tale of something that was completely predictable and yet still led to people saying that horses are unpredictable!
(First broadcast in 2017 this episode refers to seminars and talks which are not currently timetabled.)
Episode 28 Exhilaration and joy live on the other side of fear. If you decide to to bring your fears under control, then a whole world of opportunity and fun awaits you. This is the case for yourself, and for your horse. With your guidance to bring the horses fears and concerns under control, you can both have the most wonderful relationship, enjoyment and experiences.
With the nights getting darker and the weather turning wintery, what a splendid opportunity to make your dreams a reality.
This is a commonly asked question. one school of thought is that a horse should be allowed to stop and assess a situation, the other school of thought is that you should push the horse straight past a spook as you are the one in control. How can I tell which to do?
Whether you went out and came back while saying "I hope I don't die, I hope I don't die, I hope I don't die..." Is your choice. :)
We are intelligent. We have big brains and can always out think a horse. Use your intelligence to set up a series of winnable situations too to desensitize both you and your horse to the world around you, and win the trust of both yourself and your horse as the leader in this relationship.
Horses are way more capable, riders are way more capable, the activities are way more do-able, and the fun is way more have-able than you might think. Just head down to the water junk to find out more......
When we sleep, a mental process characterized by movement of the eyes behind the eyelids (REM sleep) goes into action and starts removing all the stresses of the day. Getting control of your sleep patterns is an essential tool in to taking control of of your your mental health. In this episode, first published in in November 2017, I explore the modern phenomenon of of taking smartphones to bed and maintaining social and business pressures until last thing at night and first thing in the morning ..... And the subsequent effects upon our mental health
Creating a sea change in how we view horses / mounting block problems / desensitisation
The greatest gift you can give a horse is to teach it manners... How to be a well trained, valued, and loved horse. That way, if ever you have to give up your horse, it will be sold on to a forever home and stay there because it is a super horse. If you cannot be bothered to train it's to be a well-mannered horse....then it will go from home to home to home to home to home to home to home and become one of those evergreen horses on a permanent tour of Britain.....
One of the three main issues of horse riders is bolting. This episode deals with preventing bolting, what to do when the horse is bolting, and how to school the horse out of bolting...
When discipline is insisted upon and consistently applied, they just become routine. Which turns into a well mannered horse happily operating in it's comfort zone. And a well mannered horse will always have a home!!
Horses will have to come to terms with the fact that sometimes life throws up a few things that they will not approve of! First recorded on fireworks night, this podcast discusses how to teach the horse to learn how to learn - that is, to learn that we will teach them all manner of things that they may disapprove of....
My first ever Facebook live broadcast....and I am pleased to say that the subject matter is riding your horse with a goal in mind. If you have a high goal, a big purpose, a drive for some result, then mishaps and misadventures get robbed of their power. Goals and dreams have the power to pull you through.....
How we react is more a reflection of the company we are in rather than how we feel......
A two parter today!
There are two kinds of people... Those that think that horses are fundamentally safe and usable, and those that think that horses are fundamentally out to get you. If you belong to the first group, then it doesn't matter what your skill level, or your achievements, or your abilities - with small bite sizes and a clear goal it is inevitable that you will progress. If you belong to the second group however, well........
I got lost in the back streets of Marrakech. With a reliable guide you can go into many new and and and unsettling situations with Confidence. Without a guide the small all doubts can escalate into fear. This is what happens when your horse naps back to the stables or other horses......so make sure that you are that reliable guide that can reassure your horse ...
If you have had a good horse for 20 years, and then it retires or dies, and you buy a nice four-year-old to replace it..... don't forget that it has been 20 years since you last struggled with a 4 year old......
This week's episode is about a slightly old-fashioned word, maybe even unpopular word, as that word is discipline. If you think I'm going to tell you to discipline your horses you are wrong. Horses don't need discipline. Horses need routine. ... So who needs the discipline?
