    Dear Horse World, It’s Martin Black - Part 2: Unveiling Secrets from Horsemanship History

    What if the greatest horsemen weren’t defined by their techniques, but by their ability to truly understand the horse? In this episode of Dear Horse World, we pick up where we left off with Martin Black in part 2, continuing our deep dive into the philosophies of two of the most influential figures in horsemanship - Tom Dorrance and Ray Hunt. Tom, the quiet observer with an almost instinctive connection to horses, and Ray, the bold and relentless teacher, each left a lasting impact on the horse world. Through personal stories and reflections, Martin shares what made these men so extraordinary - their ability to read a horse, their understanding of feel and timing, and the lessons they left behind for future generations. But this episode isn’t just about looking back - it’s about how their wisdom continues to shape horsemanship today. From the balance between tradition and evolution to the role of mentorship and education, Martin offers invaluable insights for anyone looking to deepen their connection with horses. If you’ve ever wondered what made these legends so impactful—or how their insights can still transform the way we work with horses today—this is an episode you won’t want to miss.  To learn more from Martin Black, and access a number of links & resources, visit his website:  🌍 https://martinblack.net/ If you'd like to watch the virtual clinic referenced in this episode with Martin Black & Dr. Steve Peters - Evidence-Based Horsemanship: Timing, Rhythm and Synchrony - you can do so here: https://martinblack.net/shop/originally-aired-2-18-25-ebh-timing-rhythm-and-synchrony Or follow him on socials at: 📱 instagram.com/y6martinblack/ 📺  @MartinBlackhorsemanship  -------------------------------------------------------------- Start Your Journey with NOËLLE FLOYD+ Unlock more exclusive content, in-depth training, and behind-the-scenes insights with NOËLLE FLOYD+.

    Dear Horse World, It's Martin Black - Part 1: Bridging Tradition and Modern Horsemanship

    Make sure you've hit subscribe to Dear Horse World, wherever you get your podcasts, so you don't miss part 2 of our conversation with Martin Black.  What if the true magic of horsemanship isn’t in perfecting techniques or equipment, but in forming a deeper, intuitive bond with your horse? In this episode, we explore how shifting from rigid methods to a relationship-driven approach can transform not only your training, but your entire partnership with your horse. We’re joined by Martin Black, a master of traditional horsemanship who blends the time-honored Vaquero methods with modern, evidence-based practices. Martin has shaped countless horses, starting 500 colts a year and learning from legends like Ray Hunt—his former father-in-law—and Tom Dorrance, the godfather of natural horsemanship. Tom’s influence on the world of horsemanship is immense, and in this episode, Martin shares how his teachings have profoundly impacted the way we communicate with horses. But this isn’t just about history—it’s about rethinking horsemanship itself. Martin reflects on a time when the lines between English and Western disciplines weren’t so clear, when instinct, intuition, and partnership mattered more than labels. What can the English world learn from the cowboys of the Idaho mountains? And what can the Western world take from the English approach? Martin’s insights will change the way you think about discipline and deepen your relationship with your horse. If you've ever felt frustrated by rigid training methods or yearned for fluidity between disciplines, this episode is the wisdom you’ve been waiting for. The book referenced at the start of this episode was Evidence-Based Horsemanship by Dr. Stephen Peters & Martin Black.

He shares firsthand insights from his own near-career-ending fall, the backlash and support he's received for speaking out, and what he believes the future of show jumping should look like.  What You’ll Take Away from This Episode:  A New Awareness of Course Safety Risks – Why certain jumps are more dangerous and how they impact riders at all levels. Behind-the-Scenes at Elite Show Jumping – Harry’s journey from growing up in an Olympic equestrian family to competing at the highest level. How to Advocate for Safer Riding – Practical tips for assessing course risks and making informed decisions in competition. The Future of Show Jumping – What’s at stake for the sport’s longevity if safety concerns aren’t addressed. Why This Matters to Every Rider - Whether you’re a pro or an amateur, understanding these risks can help keep you and your horse safer.

    Dear Horse World, it’s Duey Freeman: The Mirror Effect, Attachment Theory & Horse Clinics Decoded

    What if your horse could teach you more about yourself than any self-help book ever could? Horses have an uncanny ability to reflect our emotions, highlight our blind spots, and help us grow in ways we never imagined. But unlocking that power requires more than just skill in the saddle—it demands a willingness to look inward. That’s where Duey Freeman comes in.  Duey is a world-renowned therapist, educator, and equine professional who has spent decades helping people discover the life-changing lessons horses offer. As the co-founder of the Gestalt Equine Institute, he blends psychology, relational horsemanship, and a deep understanding of human development to show riders how their interactions with horses can lead to greater trust, connection, and personal breakthroughs.  In this episode, we explore how Duey’s unique approach can help equestrians like you: Understand your horse’s feedback: Learn how your horse mirrors your emotions and behavior, revealing what’s holding you back. Build deeper trust: Use the subtle dynamics of relational horsemanship to create a bond that goes beyond training. Foster personal growth: Discover how your relationship with your horse can help you overcome fear, improve communication, and become more present in all areas of life. Navigate challenges with clarity: Gain insights into how attachment theory and Gestalt therapy can transform not just your riding but your entire perspective on partnership. Whether you’re seeking to improve your performance, strengthen your bond, or simply find more meaning in your time with your horse, Duey’s wisdom offers a roadmap for growth—both in and out of the arena.  This is more than a conversation about horses; it’s a conversation about life, love, and the lessons waiting in every ride. If you’ve ever felt like your horse sees something in you that you don’t, this episode will show you how to finally understand—and transform—what they’re reflecting back.

    No Stupid Questions with Certified Master Saddlefitter, Jochen Schleese

    Have you ever considered the story your saddle is telling? Throughout history, saddles have symbolized connection, partnership, and the journeys we take. But in your own rides, is your saddle telling a story of trust—or betrayal? We often assume a saddle that looks fine or feels "good enough" must be doing its job. But for countless horses, the effects of poor saddle fit are quietly devastating—causing chronic pain, behavioral issues, and eroding the trust between horse and rider. And for female riders, saddles designed for male anatomy may be holding them back in ways they don’t even realize. In this episode, Noëlle sits down with Jochen Schleese, a Certified Master Saddler and Certified Equine and Saddle Ergonomist and founder of Saddlefit 4 Life®, to uncover the hidden truths about saddle fit. With decades of expertise, Jochen has helped countless horses move pain-free and empowered riders to feel balanced, comfortable, and confident. Together, they explore how an ill-fitting saddle impacts not just the horse’s body, but also the emotional and mental connection you share. You’ll learn to spot the subtle signs of poor fit, understand the overlooked needs of female riders, and discover practical steps to assess and improve your saddle—without breaking the bank. This conversation goes beyond saddle fit. It’s about redefining partnership, choosing compassion over convenience, and showing up for your horse in the most fundamental way: by listening. If your ready to take the next step on your saddle fitting journey book a fitting online or onsite here: https://schleese.com/saddle-fit-evaluation/   Dear Horse World listeners and viewers can also sign up to receive a 5% discount off their saddle purchase via this form:  https://app.smartsheet.com/b/form/61dd1e1842ca4f56a88be60e151c4512 Resources: Suffering in Silence: The Saddle Fit Link to Physical and Psychological Trauma in Horses by Jochen Schleese Explore Jochen’s work and saddle fitting resources: saddlefit4life.com

    Dear Horse World, It’s Nicki Shahinian-Simpson: Posing, Priorities and the Pressure of the Equitation Ring

    In December, a Facebook post of ours sparked a big debate: does the USA put too much emphasis on riding position? Is there room for riders to find more fluidity and freedom in their style? Today, we’re diving into those questions.   Your position in the saddle isn’t just about looking pretty for the judge’s panel. It’s about communication, balance, and creating harmony with your horse. But here’s the challenge—so much of what we’re taught about position can feel rigid, exclusive, or even unattainable. And for many riders, it leaves them questioning: Am I good enough? Do I fit in here?   You’re not alone in feeling this way, and that’s exactly why today’s episode is a must-listen.   We’re joined by Nicole Shahinian-Simpson, a rider who’s lived the highs and lows of equitation and show jumping at the highest levels. Nicki is one of only 11 riders in history to win both the ASPCA Maclay National Championship and the U.S. Medal Finals. She’s competed on the world stage, represented the U.S. in international competition, and has nearly 35 Grand Prix victories to her name.   But what sets Nicki apart isn’t just her accolades—it’s her perspective. She knows firsthand how striving for “the perfect position” can create pressure that steals your joy and confidence as a rider. And she’s here to help you rethink what good riding really looks like.   In this episode, Nicki dives into the realities behind position—how it impacts your horse, why the American equitation system is both a blessing and a challenge, and how to develop a functional, fluid position that works for you. She also tackles the often-unspoken topic of body image in riding: how the pressure to "look the part" can affect confidence, and why strength, individuality, and skill matter far more than fitting a specific mold.   Whether you’re a junior striving to meet the standard, or an amateur who just wants to ride without overthinking, Nicki’s insights will help you cut through the noise and focus on what really matters.   If you’ve ever felt like you don’t “fit the mold” of a polished equitation rider, or wondered if the emphasis on position is holding you back, this episode will leave you feeling empowered, seen, and ready to ride your best.   Because your position isn’t just about looking the part—it’s about showing up for your horse.
