There’s a lot of history behind Jesse Beery, the man, the horse trainer and his works.
Rather than me explaining who he was and how he became famous for his effective training methods, please watch this special show that Rick Lamb filmed on Jesse Beery.
There have been a few people who have talked down about Jesse Beery’s training methods. Mostly by those who haven’t studied them or haven’t used them. In reality, Beery’s methods are sound, have been developed over years of experience and use by hundreds of thousands around the world.
Truth be know, a high percentage of the leading, successful horse trainers in the last 100 years started with Beery’s course and/or methods. It is Beery’s foundational methods that have helped even occasional horse trainers and owners to train their horses.
But the real measure of any horse training is this: is your horse safer to ride? Can you control your horse? Are you enjoying your horse and feel comfortable riding it? Does your horse look to YOU when you get in dangerous situations? Does you horse spook or rare at the slightest thing? Do you trust your horse?
Without the proper training, any horse can become a very dangerous animal to ride or handle. Why take a chance with your safety and health – especially when you KNOW you can maintain control with your horse if you take the time to train it properly?
We are running a Sensational New Year’s Special HERE where you get the entire Beery Course, our famous Beginner Horseback Riding book, and much, much more.
Do You Have The Right Posture For Riding?
Check this out...
A.C Johnson from Larned, Kansas did
what no one else has done.
He balanced an egg on on an ordinary
strand of very thin wire in December, 1929.
Not exactly a useful skill, but it
does illustrate balance very well.
Balance is a key principle in all
things in life and is especially true when
riding a horse.
Whether you're riding to compete in the
horse world or you just want to have good
good riding skills, here are some guidelines.
First, don't look down.
The rule is: Look where you want to
be. If you look at the ground, then that's
where you'll end up.
Good motivation to 'not' look at the
ground, huh?
Next, shoulders back.
Why?
Besides being good posture, it makes
you sit upright.
If your shoulders are forward, your weight
is forward.
If your weight is forward, your horse
will be heavy on his forehand. That makes it
harder for him to turn, spin, jump, etc.
Next, heels underneath you.
Have the stirrup in the balls of your feet.
Next, elbows in.
Don't do the floppy chicken thing!
Next, watch yourself when riding one handed.
Often, people ride one handed and their
opposite shoulder rocks back.
You'll start to lean back and put pressure
on your lower back - that's not good.
It's like walking upright.
You ride like you walk - upright and straight.

instructions. If you want to see what what else she

How To Safely And Confidently Ride Your Horse Like A Pro!
Here's another posture checker Diana reveals.
Back up to a wall with your back and heels
against the wall.
Then bend at the knees.
When you do, your back and heels will be in
alignment as they need to be.
This is a great way to put your riding posture
on automatic pilot. Practice it often and you'll very
soon see your riding improve.
OK That's it for today. Stay safe around your horses!

"Hi Charlie,
I want to thank you so much for the
horse tips. It has helped me so much with my
riding lessons. I have always wanted a horse of
my own since I was a child and I got one 2 years
ago at the age of 56! I know you are never too
old to go for that dream and I did. I have a
registered Saddlebred and she is so wonderful.
I was so lucky to get her. She stands 15.3 hands
high and is spoiled rotten! I've had some ups and
downs with my health but this year I am going to
be able to get in the show ring in April! I never gave
up and found the perfect stable for her to be and
instructor. When we go in the ring we will be winners!
It will be my dream come true. So if anyone thinks
they are too old to acheive that dream they are wrong.
Go for it and you won't regret it. Thanks to people
like you that take the time to help us understand
our horses more, we don't loose no matter what!
Thank u again so much,
Patty C. and Rosewall's Duchess of York (Holly)"http://www.horsetrainingresources.com/RidingBook/

Jesse Beery was an amazing MASTER at
fixing problem horses. He actually
started as young boy working with horses
and studied them all the time. Even as
a young man he started noticing how
certain horses had different dispositions
and started handling each type a little
differently. He later developed a
classification system for these dispositions.
Over the years he handled hundreds of horses and developed simple methods to handle almost any kind of problem.
Watch this video by Rick Lamb to get a
feel for who Jesse Beery was:
He traveled around the country fixing
the biggest problem horses in the community
he was visiting. He did all this in front of crowds and showed his methods.
You can imagine how word would get
around about this man and his
training knowledge and ability.
He later developed his 8 volume course
and started selling it as a home-study
mail order course. It sold by the
tens of thousands.
The Original 8 Volume Course
Below, Our New Reproduction of the Original with TWO Extra Training Books Included In A Convenient Spiral-Bound Book!
He then started the Beery School ofHorsemanship in Ohio and trained thousands
more that way as well. He also later
developed courses on the saddle horse,
animal breeding, and even some dog
training at one point.
At last count many years ago, there was a published number of over 300,000 people who had successfully used Beery’s horse training course.
That number is staggering.
That would make Beery’s course the most successful horse training course in history!
The 8 volume “Beery Illustrated Course in Horse Training” has long been out of print but we secured the reprint rights for it and spent hundreds of dollars to have it professionally converted (re-typed and scanned the original illustrations) to a new book form. We sell it both as a printed book and as digital downloads.
[AND in MP3 audio book format as well!]
Know what? Beery originally sold this
8 Volume course for about $34.00 back
in the early 1900’s! That was A LOT of
money back then!
How much would that be today? Hundreds.
You can now buy the new form of the book
as a spiral bound manual (with or without
the audio book version, too) for quite a bit
less than $100.00.

Some folks suggest that training methods
developed over 100 years ago are “out of date”.
HA! I just have to laugh.
Comments like this typically comes from
someone who doesn’t know horses very well
and hasn’t handled or trained them before.
You see – the truth is that horses haven’t changed. Their ability to learn isn’t any different today than it was 100, 500, or 5,000 years ago.
Anyway… I digress.
Here’s the bottom line:
Beery’s methods work just as well today
as they did then and he presents them in
an easy to use form. Anyone who reads the books and diligently tries them on their horse will succeed.
But success isn’t without work.
Heck – few things are. Get the course,
read it, and apply the methods to fix your
main training problems. See if it doesn’t
work for you.
Read the testimonials from just a few of
the folks that wrote in. I have dozens more.
It will work for you, too.
If your horse is in need of some work, if he’s getting dangerous or has you fearful then now is the time to start fixing these problems. Here’s the link one more time…

and dozens of other bad behaviors,
with proven, successful methods.

thousands of others have alredy
