The first three episodes of our brand-new case study series, Riding with Tik Maynard, are now streaming on NF+!
In each case study, Tik works with real riders and horses in unscripted sessions. The initial three episodes introduce you to Diane and her young horse, Chico, as they move the early stages of backing with patience, precision, and a whole lot of listening.
Plus, these new episodes come just in time to cheer Tik on as he defends his title at Road to the Horse! More to come on that in 3... 2... 1...

Noëlle will be sitting down soon with financial coach Mary Hurston for a No Stupid Questions episode of Dear Horse World, and we want your questions on money, finances, and budgeting as a rider and horse owner!
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the financial side of horse ownership — whether it’s covering unexpected vet bills, the expense of show season, or just managing the month-to-month costs — this is your chance to ask an expert. Mary is a financial coach (and fellow equestrian) who knows firsthand that no two months of horse ownership look the same.
Drop your questions for Mary below and we'll ask as many as we can during the episode. (And no question is too basic or simple: when we say "no stupid questions," we mean it!)

Join us tomorrow, Tuesday, March 18th at 2 pm ET / 11 am PT for a "Review My Ride" virtual clinic with Josh Nichol!
This is a great opportunity to get personalized advice from Josh on your training questions, and to learn from other riders' experiences and challenges.
Let us know you'll be there and add the clinic to your calendar! (And if you can't make it, the full replay will be available on NF+). Then, submit your video here for a chance to have Josh review it during the event.
Let us know if you have any questions & see you tomorrow!

Tom Dorrance and Ray Hunt shaped modern horsemanship not through rigid techniques, but through their ability to read a horse. Their influence runs deep, and their lessons on feel, timing, and intuition still shape the way we train and ride today.
In Part 2 of our conversation with Martin Black, we take a closer look at their philosophies, the impact they had on generations of horsemen, and how their wisdom continues to resonate in today’s horse world.
