About this video

Behaviourist Sarah Fisher, demonstrates the art of riding without a bridle using the veteran mare Sage and her owner Corine. Starting with both a bridle and a neck ring (plus the 'wand'), Sarah ensures Corine has brakes and horse and rider are feeling safe and secure. When the bridle comes off Corine demonstrates all paces and jumps! The mare moves freely and enjoys herself. Sarah says riding without a bridle is addictive. It's useful for older horses, horses that fall out through the shoulder, tilt their head or are jammed at the poll. Riders improve their posture, balance and confidence. Sarah gets Horse Hero's Fiona Price to join in the fun too!

Mandeigh 19 Oct 2009 oooh that looked soooo much fun....and what a nice cuddle you got from Sage at the end!
Sarah Fisher 17 Oct 2009 Hi Christina - if there is any doubt about the safety aspect we use the neck ring in conjunction with a bridle or a lindell (which is quite similar to a side pull) - even if you cannot remove the bit, the this exercise is still beneficial for horses that are stiff in the neck or unbalanced. Its great fun as you can see from the smiles on Corinne's and Fiona's faces!
