Sample Our Newsletter From "Keys To Improvement," Issue 8, part 2 of our FREE monthly newsletter
Re: horse training trick
How many times do you think you've ridden your horse? A thousand? Five hundred? Just guess. What if every time you got on, you improved something, no matter how small? If you could just see some little improvement for each of those thousand times you've been on that horse, that's a thousand percent improvement. After all, you can't get the horse trained all at once; the key is to make some small improvement every time you get in that saddle. Your mindset, when you get in that saddle, is that something is going to get better. Now, it might not be what you'd planned on working on because it's not a matter of what you want to work on that day – your horse decides for you. You may want to work on your right lead, but the horse says "No, I'm just going to run away." So you may not work on leads at all; you may just work on...
The 2nd in a series of 5 videos, Josh Lyons Teaching Tricks covers the following topics:
• The Bow: Picking up the foot, Shifting the horse's weight
back, Building a cue for the bow
• Laying Down: Using the bow to start, Rolling the horse on
his side, Keeping the horse down until cued.
• Sitting Up
• Teaching Collection from the Ground: Controlling the hind
end without moving the front.
• Hips In: Stop chasing your horse's hips while trying to get
on; teach him to come to you.

You can purchase online using your checking account or a charge card like VISA. Both methods are very simple:
To purchase an item, click "Add To Cart." After that you can look at other products or pages on my site. When you're ready to complete your purchase click on the "View Cart" button on any product page. You can also use it to change quantities. You will be given an opportunity
during this process to pay via your checking account or with VISA.
We use PayPal to handle our online transactions. (Why?) But, you DO NOT NEED a PayPal account to make a payment using a charge card. When it asks you to sign in, ignore that and look down the page. You'll find a link (it says "Continue") which allows you to continue without creating an account using your charge card.
You do need an account to pay by check (or "echeck"). To pay by check either sign in to your PayPal account (on the page mentioned above) or go to PayPal.com and follow the simple process to create an account. (You'll find a button at the top of their page marked "Sign Up Now.") Note that signing up to pay by check will take a few days as PayPal verifies your account. Also note that PayPal will not allow me to send any products until your check clears (usually in about 5-6 days).
