The Best Horse Practices podcast with Jec Ballou is a space for riders and horse owners of all disciplines to learn best practices and discover ways to connect better and make progress with their horses. Fitness, of mind and body, the ability to think critically about your horse work as well as embracing a beginner’s mind are all parts of this lucky equine equation that Jec and I hold dear. We hope you do, too.
It’s a collaboration between Jec, a renowned trainer and author, and Maddy Butcher, who runs Cayuse Communications and is the author of Horse Head: Brain Science & Other Insights.
Thanks to Kevin MacLeod for our intro & outro music, his Funkorama and Whiskey on the Mississippi.
From Jec and Maddy:
We believe in problem-solving, having fun, and engaging our audience. We believe in sharing our successes as well as our struggles. We believe in offering take-aways that answer not just the what, but the why and the how.
We interview people who are actively engaged in improving the lives of horses and their owners through best practices, be it directly through riding or through products, research, education, policy, or facility management.
We also have fun! Each podcast has a few elements that are distinct from the main conversation. It might as simple as a unique horse-related word, a bit of feedback from listeners, pet peeves, soap box stances, a poem, or stories of momentary and epic failure (Maddy’s personal favorite).
This podcast is a work in progress and will be made better with your input. We look forward to hearing from you. Contact us here.
We thank our generous sponsors, Redmond Equine, Kate’s Read Food, Lucerne Farms, and Patagonia WorkWear for their support.
