The Path of the Horse


The Path of the Horse
Based on 8 reviews

A horse trainer gives up her career to travel the world, searching for people who might unlock the secret of how to move to the next level of understanding with horses. What she finds is simple but is she willing to pay the price to take the path less traveled? This inspirational documentary explores the future of horse-human relationships and ultimately all human relationships. As our culture evolves from domination over nature into a partnership, we see this change being reflected in the work that people are doing with horses. This is a story of visionaries, of men and women who have made it their life's work to develop and reveal their innermost thoughts and feelings through achievement of a synergistic balance with the horse's own elegant naturalness. Horses have a gift to share; teaching us how to develop community, leadership, trust, and love within our own families through a connection that goes beyond words.

What A Waste Of Time, Thursday 01 October, 2009
Reviewer: JR23
This video is just silly. Really...."become childlike and stand there all day and dance around your horse" I hope no one gets hurt in an attempt to copy these tactics. They show a select group of heavy handed riders that jab their horse flanks until they bleed as the norm. I tried to watch with an open mind but found myself laughing more than learning while I watched and wondered if PETA had a hand in it.

wonderful!, Friday 25 September, 2009

It definitely made me realize that less is more with horses, and time spent with them is golden. It gave me a lot of new people to study too!

Time wasted I could have spent doing something with my horse. It drove me nuts how the director used a small percentage of people pulling on reins, sinking spurs and whipping a horse to show abuse. Train a horse properly and you dont have to do those things. And dancing with a horse, c'mon that is an invitation to have a 1200 lbs animal kick you in your head. I do agree a horse with work with you and love to do its job, but you dont have to spend all day standing in the paddock waiting for it to bond with you.

Truely a must see for all horse people, Wednesday 10 June, 2009

Definitely saw things in this video that I did not ever realize were possible. It definitely opened my eyese to the way I now treat and understand my horses. I highly recommend this video.

If you are a horse person you must rent this, Wednesday 08 April, 2009

Amazing. Trainers I had never heard of, showing a totally new way of thinking and training. I definitely want to learn more about the people interviewed in the video. It really opens your eyes up to the possiblities of communication without any force or resistance. Defnitely makes you think about the spirit of the horse and how bad they really want to have fun and please us.

This was a fantastic video. I loved listening to Stormy May's Journey into this new path. Her views have changed and anyone with open eyes and heart will find a new way with horses....the dream is possible!
