Description
“It’s an internal softness that you take with you in everything that you do”
Horsemanship Breakthroughs Podcast Episode 40: Internal softness, Martial Arts, and ‘Horses Aren’t People’ with Mark Rashid
Mark Rashid is an internationally known author and horseman known for his ability to understand the horse’s point of view and solve difficult problems with communication rather than force.
He began working with horses at age ten, when he met the “old man,” who taught him to work with horses, not against them, and to listen to what the horse is trying to say.
Mark’s clinics are structured as one-on-one work with horse and rider and are immensely popular with people around the world.
When Mark decided to study the martial art of aikido as a way to improve his horsemanship, he brought the same quiet determination to it that he exhibits in his work with horses.
Mark worked full-time on ranches for many years gathering herds, managing stock, and training horses. When time permits, he still enjoys working on ranches near his home in Colorado as well as playing guitar professionally with his friends.
Mark is the author of fourteen books, with his latest titled ‘for the love of the horse’
