I think I first heard about him on this chat group. Judy put his name out there. A friend and I read his stuff and she continues to work with her draft horse using many of his techniques. Very briefly I think he would not "approve" of much that we do with Icelandic horses. He doesn't seem to approve of 80% of what anybody does with horses.
He wants his students to break away from all their riding habits and styles and get off the horse and begin anew from the ground for at least a year of work before getting in the saddle again. The horse is to be worked in hand and then without any tack so that it easily collects and comes under with what looks like just a wave of the hand. All the videos and pictures are amazing and I am sure he is extremely talented but his horses seem to be selected for extraordinary energy and focus at the outset. If he ever did anything so humble as a clinic I would love to watch him work. Nancy Peterson
