liberty training

Liberty Training (as defined by Carolyn Resnick) is a method of training a horse in a free environment without tack from the ground in a wide open space large enough for a horse to avoid his training if he wants to.
I think this is pretty awesome. Have you ever wonder how horses in movies do cool stuff, or how people teach horses tricks? Well this is probably the way 80 % of them do it.  Most trainers use 2 whips. 1 is used as a guide to point where to go, the other is used for impulsion. Some people get so good that the slightest movement means something. I think that's crazy. So anyway one day when I get a horse I want to train them like this.
