Dear Horse World, it’s Dr. Connie Fancy, DVM – Invisible Injuries & What Your Horse's Body Is Trying To Tell You 1:17:19

17d ago1:17:19

1:17:19

When your horse starts limping or bucking, it’s easy to assume the problem is something visible. But what if it’s hiding deep within—buried in organs, muscle, or fascia? Often, the real troublemakers are internal misalignments, quietly pulling on connective tissue, restricting blood flow, and crying out in ways we overlook. For countless horses, th…

Why Play Is Key for Building “Try” in Your Horse, and How to Do It with Tik Maynard 56:38

7M ago56:38

56:38

When you picture adding “play” into your horse’s training, what comes to mind? Do you imagine your horse chasing around a large ball or nosing carrots out of a container? Or maybe you see your horse trotting joyfully behind you as you run? The fact is, play can look like a lot of different things, but it doesn’t have to be any of the above. Play’s …

It Doesn't Have to Feel This Stressful: What Your Nervous System Has to Do with Performance, with Natalie Hummel 1:05:52

8M ago1:05:52

1:05:52

Why do competitions make our hearts hammer, mouths go dry, and hands tremble? We may never get nervous riding at home, but as soon as we step into that show ring (or clinic, or in front of peers, or riding a difficult horse), it can feel like something primal just takes over. As it turns out, that is exactly what’s happening. Competition (whether y…

Toplines: Spotting Pain, Dysfunction, and Myths that Need to Be Busted with Ansley Bevan 58:07

8M ago58:07

58:07

Muscle tension and underdevelopment are a precursor to injury, making topline development crucial to keeping horses healthy and sound. Elasticity through the back allows horses to move freely, support riders, and meet our performance expectations. So why do so many performance horses have underdeveloped muscles and signs of discomfort? Unfortunatel…

9M ago1:00:29

1:00:29

“More impulsion!” Most of us have heard our coaches cry – usually accompanied by a hearty clap or imitation of riding forward. But what does ‘impulsion’ actually mean to you, your trainer, or the judge scoring you? By listener request, we’re breaking down riding terms that have mystified riders for years. Caroline is joined by Rob Van Jacobs, a USE…

How to Change a Spooky Horse into a Thinking Horse, with Josh Nichol 1:07:29

10M ago1:07:29

1:07:29

There’s no taking the spook out of a horse. As prey animals, horses will always want to run away first. Combine this fact with modern breeding programs that produce lighter, more responsive horses and many of us may find ourselves riding with a pounding heart and sweaty palms, fearing that inevitable spook. But a spooky horse isn’t a problem; it’s …

Why Michael Pollard Quit the Sport at the Height of His Career 1:14:45

11M ago1:14:45

1:14:45

Michael Pollard had what most of us could only dream of - a meteoric rise in the discipline of Eventing (including winning a Pan Am Games team Gold Medal in 2011), a string of talented horses, a strong non-horse business that supported his riding career, and a supportive group of sponsors, friends and family. But then, to the surprise of many, Mich…

11M ago1:08:05

1:08:05

As the days get shorter and the weather gets colder, the time comes once more for the biggest decision of the winter: Do you blanket your horse, or not? And, which one? (Heavy, medium, medium-light, neck or no neck?!) Some riders put a sheet on at the slightest sign of a chill, while others keep their horses bare regardless of outside conditions. A…

Can We Help Horses Heal from Trauma and Grief? Using Physical Touch to Heal Emotional Wounds with Good Shepherd Gabriel 55:39

12M ago55:39

55:39

Horses are well known for their power to heal. The positive feelings we have after spending time with our horses are, after all, one of the main reasons why we ride, and equine therapy is used to treat a wide range of physical and mental health challenges. How often, though, do we think about the flip side of the coin - how do our actions help, or …

1:02:12

You’ve just left the barn after another frustrating lesson, and you don’t know what to do.

How do you go about deciding when it’s time for a new direction for both you …

Is the Forward Seat Still Relevant? Peter Wylde on Rider Style, Feel, and Evolution of Position 1:08:58

1y ago1:08:58

1:08:58

Americans are known for their smooth, forward positions on the horse, so much so that it became known as the ‘American Forward Seat’. But how has it evolved over the years as our light, sensitive Thoroughbreds have blended with the heavier horses of Europe? Does it still provide the same effective foundation today as it did before, or is it less re…

What It’s Really Like to Run a Horse Rescue (All Seated in a Barn & Storeybrook Farm) 1:12:41

1y ago1:12:41

1:12:41

We’ve all seen the pictures: the emaciated horse who looks ancient, but in actuality is in their prime, their coat dirty and their eyes dull. We’ve all also had the desire to just hook up our trailer (or commandeer one) and take them home to a better life. Unfortunately, few of us have the resources or the means to follow through on that impulse - …

Why Doesn’t Riding Have An Athletic Culture? Embracing Rider Wellness with Ifa Simmonds 1:11:11

1y ago1:11:11

1:11:11

When you go to a horse show, you can see riders diligently warming up their horses prior to competition, making sure their partner is both mentally and physically ready for the task ahead. But you rarely (if ever) see those same riders warming themselves up before they mount up, making sure they are just as prepared. Why is there such a vast discon…

Amy Skinner: “If you don’t understand pressure, you’ll be forced to overuse it.” 1:02:05

1y ago1:02:05

1:02:05

There are many ideas about what good training looks like with horses. We imagine a well-trained horse as one who is able to perform its job at a high level, and view subsequent competition results as a validation of correctness. But what if that same horse can’t be mounted without being held, or has trouble loading onto/unloading off the trailer? C…

Understand Your Competitive Drive So That It Doesn’t Work Against You (Or Your Horse) 56:58

1y ago56:58

56:58

For most of us, competition is a large part of why we choose to ride, and also for most of us, we allow this drive to steer our behavior without really giving it too much thought. But science shows that our competitive drive is not a mystery. In fact, learning about this powerful force behind our motivation can help us shape it towards positive, gr…

4 Ideas to Make Show Jumping More Engaging (and Why That Matters) 1:04:13

1+ y ago1:04:13

1:04:13

While many riders need no excuse to tune into a livestream to watch the top show jumping athletes of our day duke it out at the FEI level, there are a lot of people who consider themselves sports enthusiasts who are nonetheless pretty lost when they try to watch the upper levels of the sport. Let’s not even start on how many of our friends and fami…

“Age Is Not A Disease”: Considerations for Caring for Aging Horses with Dr. Katie Sheats 1:38:19

1+ y ago1:38:19

1:38:19

There are stereotypes for just about everything when it comes to the horse world, and aging horses are no exception. We picture a hard keeper becoming increasingly thin over time, or maybe we imagine a recently retired athlete going out to a big pasture with a herd of other horses and immediately feeling content. But just like with every stereotype…

The Horses, Breeding, and Evolution of Show Jumping with Helena Stormanns 58:38

1+ y ago58:38

58:38

There’s no question that the show jumping horses of today are different from the horses of 30, even 20 years ago. As courses continue to get increasingly technical and fast, breeders are producing increasingly athletic horses to match…or is it that cause/effect relationship the other way around? And what about the horses who are bred to jump 1.60, …

Symmetry, Strength, and Optimizing the Rider's Seat 1:25:02

1+ y ago1:25:02

1:25:02

There’s so much more to your seat and symmetry in the saddle than meets the eye. It’s not just about good equitation or looking pretty in the saddle. Your horse’s health, musculature, and soundness are profoundly impacted by your balance while you ride. Also, it’s just plain miserable to constantly be fighting your own position while you ride. If y…

Deep Dive: Understanding Kissing Spines 1:33:13

1:33:13

Your horse is cold backed and unpredictable at the mounting block. Under saddle, he goes around inverted, and can sometimes even kick out or spook suddenly. One of your friends casually says, “Maybe he has Kissing Spines,” and your heart skips - you’ve heard of it before, and know that it’s definitely not good. Kissing Spines disease in horses has …

If you’re a regular to the Equestrian Voices podcast, you know that bitting is a subject we return to time and again.

(Part 2) Creating Openness and Growth in the Horse/Rider Relationship 44:16

1+ y ago44:16

44:16

When it comes to riding, more often than not the focus is placed on the horse - what are they doing, how are they feeling, what can we improve with them, etc. But we all know that the horse is only 50% of the equation - the other 50%? You: the rider. So why does it always feel like focusing on yourself, especially out of the saddle, is somehow self…

If you’ve ever taken a riding lesson, you know that it goes something like this: Your trainer stands in the middle of the ring giving you instructions, and you’re on the horse trying your darndest to follow those instructions precisely. It works… kinda. But bridging that gap between your trainer’s instructions and feeling/understanding can be chall…

Do We Need More Toughness, or More Softness? With JJ Tate 1:21:49

1+ y ago1:21:49

1:21:49

Most riders desire to develop a horse who is a happy, willing participant in whatever task or discipline they’ve set out towards. But where the training narrative used to revolve around making sure the horse knows who’s the boss, newer methods value give and take and making sure your horse is heard in the conversation. The balance of toughness vs s…

1:08:08

You hear it all the time: “Young riders today don’t know about horsemanship.” “Kids today just want to get on and ride.” “There are no more barn rats.” These complaints point to a larger potential issue of losing generational knowledge. Is it something we, as horsepeople, should be concerned about? To help us answer this question, we turned to Arch…

What Makes a Good Vet (& How to Be a Good Client) 58:56

1+ y ago58:56

58:56

Vets are one of the unsung heroes of horse sport. Horses are unfailingly creative (and effective) at hurting themselves; from a mystery lameness to a sudden colic to every type of laceration you could dream up, a day that goes by without some sort of injury is a good day by default. Because of this, having access to a good vet is a critical part of…

Is Saddle Fit a Bigger Deal Than We Think? (Part 1) 48:59

2y ago48:59

48:59

Are we collectively aware of how profoundly saddle fit can affect our horses? As today’s Equestrian Voices episode guest would argue, probably not. Saddle fit can cause real (and, as far as we know, potentially irreversible) damage to your horse’s body. That’s the bad news. The good news is, a well-fitting saddle doesn't have to be expensive or com…

Before you hit the road with your horse again, give this ep a listen. Your horse will thank you. Travel can be stressful on your horse and, in some cases, even harmful for his health.

Understanding Trauma + Therapy Through A Rider’s Experience 1:03:31

If you’re in the horse world long enough, you or someone you know will probably experience trauma. For almost all of us, it has been – or will be – a part of life and the horse world is no exception.

Being a successful rider in this sport is an uphill battle — and not just in terms of the skills and time necessary to make your way up the ladder. The ups and downs can be extreme and unpredictable, it’s often “one step forward, two steps back”, and money more often feels like a problem than a solution.

We’re taking on a spicy topic this week! (But why is this such a heated debate? We’ll get to that, too!) If horses are born without shoes, why do they need them?
