At the weekend I went to a talk given by Emma Massingale of the Island Project. She has a liberty team of Connemara ponies and took four of them to live alone with her on an island for a month so she could try training two new ponies with no equipment at all.
Her talk was really inspiring and if anyone gets the chance to hear it I would definitely recommend going. If not, have a look at her youtube videos here.
The bond she has with her ponies is incredible and I would love for Galahad to have that much trust in me. We are still working at some liberty work and make small improvements every time. I just need to more consistent and make sure we do a little every day.
I ride tactless it’s fun. Definitely not skilled at it, but it’s something I never thought I could do when mine first arrived 🙂

I would love to be able to ride tackles. We’re working on it, perhaps one day!
