Are you unintentionally causing your horse stress without even realizing it?
Many riders and horse owners assume that a horse's behavior is purely a reaction to external stimuli or its environment. But could it be that your horse's posture, emotional state, or past trauma is causing these issues instead?
The truth is, a horse's physical and emotional well-being is closely connected to its posture and nervous system state. Understanding this connection can transform how you interact with and train your horse, fostering a healthier relationship.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL LEARN:
How physical and emotional stress affects a horse's behavior.
The signs that indicate whether a horse is hypervigilant or shut down.
Techniques to help your horse maintain a neutral, relaxed posture.
Why developing a clear, respectful communication strategy is key to a successful horse-human relationship.
Join us as we dive deep into these insights with our special guest, Dr. Karen Gellmen, who will share their expertise and experience in understanding horse behavior and fostering healthier horse-human connections.
To truly connect with your horse, it’s essential to understand their unique needs and emotions – this episode will help you do just that.

Many horse owners focus on the surface-level signs of discomfort—like a limp or a stiff gait—but few understand that the underlying issue could be something much more fundamental: equine posture. Ignoring this can lead to chronic pain, recurring injuries, and unnecessary veterinary expenses.
What if there was a way to improve your horse's posture and, as a result, enhance their overall well-being, soundness, and performance? In this episode, we dive into the world of equine posture with Dr. Karen Gellman, a veterinarian specializing in biomechanics and posture rehabilitation. Dr. Gellman shares insights on why posture is the foundation of equine health and how to achieve it through simple, practical methods.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:
Why posture is a critical, often overlooked aspect of equine health.
The three most important influences on your horse's posture: the hooves, the neck, and the teeth.
How proper hoof care can prevent imbalances and support healthy movement.
The surprising role that a horse's teeth play in maintaining good posture and locomotion.
Get ready to transform your understanding of equine health and take the first step toward a happier, healthier horse!
