These videos are super. I am making my way through them. I do wish I’d chosen the DVD, because I could then watch them while I’m places I can’t stream. That being said, love the videos and will watch them all more than once. Julie has a real knack for breaking information down into sensible bites. I especially like the way she explains “The why” of things. I retain it so much better.
Julie does an excellent job of explaining the techniques needed to work with a horse.
