So I have been thinking about putting together a few videos on some training and general horsemanship topics. I know there's already tons of videos out there already on YouTube, quality varying both on information and presentation.

A series covering proper care and grooming starting with the very basic. This could cover feeding, proper hoof care, how to tack up properly and properly adjust equipment, and basic equine behavior and expressions. It would be handy to have your new students watch on their own instead of going over it again and again.

YES! There's so much to absorb with the first lessons it really overwhelms some of them. Being able to review the information inbetween would be helpful for retention and confidence.

Hi! I would really like to see videos that explain some basics like equine behavior and expressions.
I'm fairly new to equestrian world and I'm still learning about horses. After going on a horse riding holiday in Croatia with my family last summer I'm totally hooked. The experience was great! Four days of horse riding through Velebit mountain only deepend my love for horses. I'm trying to learn as much as I can and it's quite challenging for me to "read" horse and act accordingly, so a video on that subject would be great! Looking foward to your posts!

Thanks for the suggestion! Now I just need to make the time to create the videos!
