In this episode of Dear Horse World, we sit down with the legendary horseman, author, and clinician Mark Rashid to explore his groundbreaking approach to horsemanship. Rooted in kindness and inspired by the principles of Aikido, Mark’s work shows riders how to tackle challenges and evolve as partners and people.

 

Mark doesn’t just teach “fixes” for problem horses—he empowers riders to become more aware, present, and in tune with their horse’s energy. If you’ve ever felt confused, frustrated, or disconnected with your horse, this episode is for you. Mark shares transformative insights that include:

 

  • Blend Don’t Battle. Mark’s Aikido-inspired approach turns resistance into harmony, so you can create a partnership where you and your horse move as one.
  • Slow Down to Connect: Learn how taking your time lets you notice the small signals your horse gives—and how those moments hold the key to solving bigger problems.
  • Kindness is the Core: Why a kinder, softer approach to working with horses is more than just effective—it actually feels good for both you and your horse.

 

Horsemanship isn’t about mastering techniques; it’s about mastering yourself. Mark reminds us that the journey toward better riding starts with patience, curiosity, and a willingness to listen—not just to your horse, but to your own instincts.

 

This conversation will leave you inspired to approach your horse—and your life—with more compassion, clarity, and connection. Whether you’re a lifelong rider or just starting out, Mark Rashid’s insights will give you the tools to unlock the magic of true partnership.
