Episode 66: The Liberty Connection
In this episode we explore the importance of observing posture during liberty work so we support both the horse’s physical wellbeing and their mind body connection. Our aim is to invite you to reflect on why you do liberty, what it means to you, and what true liberty means to the horse.
- What “freedom” really means for the horse, and how liberty can still ask for physically inappropriate work if posture is overlooked
- Using liberty, target training, and play to enhance body awareness without losing the horse to treats, pressure, or distraction
- Key postural considerations for tricks and movements like rearing, piaffe, spanish walk and obstacles
