Quotes from Lindsey Forkun
“Persistent patience leads to powerful and positive partnerships.”
- “Communication, trust, leadership, and partnership – that’s what makes natural horsemanship the best way to interact with your horse.”
- “It’s not what you can make your horse do that determines how great a horseman you are, it’s what your horse wants to do for you.”
- “You can train your horse however you want, but take off the halter and lead rope, and all you are left with is the truth – what does your horse do with no strings attached?”
- “It’s not what you know – it’s what you understand. Your horse doesn’t care if you know how to do a piaffe if you don’t understand when he’s asking you questions.”
- “The grand prix rider to the backyard pleasure rider – natural horsemanship works!”
- “Experience the competitive edge of natural horsemanship – it’s a whole new level of competition when your horse actually wants to win for you!”
- “You can do this, anyone can – natural horsemanship works for everyone of every age, every discipline, and every level.”
- “How is it that people can feel safe riding 1000 pound animals over jumps and on trails and yet they don’t even understand the most fundamental communication signals and concepts with horses?”
- “Some think keeping horses outdoors 24/7 is inferior because it’s cheap and somehow stressful for horses – it’s the claustrophobic prison cells that punish horses with solitary confinement for upwards of 12 hours a day that many think are the best for horses – horses which are an extremely social animal that only sleeps 4 hours a day and is physically and mentally supposed to spend the remaining 20 hours of the day roaming, grazing, and socializing - does that not sound crazy?”
- "Your leadership will define your relationship with your horse – always have a focus to show strong leadership. It can be as simple as ‘lets stand and graze’ or as complex as ‘lets do a series of flying changes’ – it doesn’t matter so long as you have a focus and you have a way to communicate that focus to your horse.”
- “First comes trust, then comes training.”
