Some videos of Clinton Anderson's horsemanship

Clinton Anderson is using the same techniques like Pat Parelli (who is more famous) but when Parelli was doing all his stuff I still was in Germany and did my English riding. So I am not really familiar with all of Parelli's horsemanship methods and really can't compare Clinton to Parelli.

Here some videos I took at the clinic last week. I am still thrilled and thankful that I could attend the shows!

Here is Clinton teaching Maverick to come into Clinton's space, that he did not allow to be walked in earlier (first gaining respect, than to allow the horse into the space - like after a day). Clinton is really witty and funny, I love that!

Clinton on top of his horse Jillaroo. His top mare Mindy got retired on this tour at the Las Vegas stop in the summer, and his other top horse Diaz was kept at the World Equestrian Games in Kentucky for demonstration. So he showed us the next good horse Jillaroo, who is an offspring of his favorite Mindy.

I got the stick, halter and leadline off of ebay and train my Vanna since this week. I can't believe that it actually works with a stubborn old Fjord mare! LOL! I rode her this week for an entire of 30 minutes because it makes so much sense working off the ground first and I really enjoy it!
