Spreading the Parelli Word

Posted Thu, 04/16/2009 - 01:14 by fatboyjeanne

To protect and promote the principles of Parelli while serving the members who choose to actively share it.

The challenges will be many. As we share our experiences we will have a place to organize our thoughts: what works, what doesn't. Sharing is more than telling others what we do. To be successful we will need to take our circle of influence into consideration, be respectful of others' histories, backgrounds and where they are in their own journey.

"When the student is ready, the teacher will appear." We aim to discover those infintesimal things that let us know we are welcome in our sharing. Or not. And respond accordingly. We are all in this together. The horses of the world deserve our very best efforts.

Today one year ago...

Posted Sun, 07/25/2010 - 12:16 by equinesforlife  equinesforlife

Today exactly one year ago I was heading from home near Adelaide down to where my lease horse was kept, over 90 km away near Normanville. I did this every weekend that I could manage it, it's a long drive, and often the weather was crap or I couldn't afford the extra fuel, or I had other responcibilities that kept getting in my way. It was difficult having him live so far away, meaning I would have to suffer up to a month without visiting, but at the time it was necessary.

Region 3 Arab show Parelli Games demo

Posted Sat, 07/24/2010 - 21:19 by swfnevada  swfnevada
After a year of planning and persuasion, my idea made its’ debut during the Region 3 Arabian Horse show in Reno July 11 – 17, 2010. It started after the Region 3 show last year when I realized that what I had learned in the Parelli program should be shared with the Arabian industry. With the help of a few key people, I was able to make my presentation to the Region 3 show committee in February of 2009. In 10 minutes I was able to convince the show committee to allow me a chance to do a demo of the Parelli Games during t

A big hello to everyone from savvy Scotland!

 

My name is Joanne, I'm 16 years old and I'm glad to be just starting out on my parelli journey.  I joined the Savvy Club a couple of months ago and am hoping to achieve my level 1 by the end of the year.

 

The First Step

Posted Tue, 07/20/2010 - 07:31 by equinesforlife  equinesforlife

Ever since I could hold a pencil I was drawing horses, so this life was chosen for me before I was able to make choices. As a child nothing excited me more than seeing grazing horses in the paddocks whip by from the back seat of the car, visiting the RDA pony rides at the local show where I spent all my allowance, every toy I had was horse, my bedroom walls were covered in pictures and visitng my Grandmother out of town was the absolute peak when she'd put me up on the back of her cranky old Pally gelding Rebel.

Time for a tune up

Posted Mon, 07/19/2010 - 21:48 by ivgoneriding  ivgoneriding

We have a liberty clinic with David Zuend at the weekend, so this week I have been doing a bit of a tune up on getting l3 responses.

Friday, we did some two rein driving, playing with circles and changes of direction, plus picking canter leads.

Yesterday we were playing with spins and change of direction (we have had some issues with this recently - see one of my earlier posts) - we had fun with these and I even got some squeals when I applied pressure to the departure.

Purpose to principles

Finally, after a year of being in the village, I rode to the village shop yesterday.

 

It was one of those moments slobbing on the sofa in the afternoon, having worked pretty hard pulling ragwort most of the morning and into the afternoon. We decided we had the munchies. I instantly voluteered to ride the pone down, provided hubby looked after the emotional fitness of baby pone who would be left behind.

The Parelli 12 foot line...

Posted Tue, 07/13/2010 - 17:23 by nmclean  nmclean

I ordered my first official Parelli 12 foot line back in December.  I love it...nothing compares as far as quality and functionality. 

While going through papers yesterday I ran across the instruction sheet that came with the 12 foot line it reads:  The best rope in the world is not a lead rope...It's a line of communication between you and your horse.

Went to see Pat and Linda at Stoneleigh this weekend, a bit disappointed with the show itself didnt seem to be a great number of the public attending which really surprised me. I hope this takes off next year as its a great place for all horsey people to get together and to see how all like minded people interact.
