San Diego, CA – April 17, 2012 – Troxel LLC, the worldwide leader in ASTM/SEI-certified equestrian helmets, is celebrating its 20^th Anniversary of the invention of the modern lightweight, vented, safety helmet by introducing two new helmets: the Liberty and Intrepid. Both helmets mark a new evolution of the brand’s schooling and performance helmets to its line of physician-developed, high-performance headgear.

 

The Liberty and Intrepid helmets both feature an ultralight, low profile design, and incorporate Troxel’s revolutionary self-adjusting CinchFit™ Pro technology, which adjusts to the shape of the rider's head for an unmatched level of comfort and stability.

 

“20 years ago, our vision was to offer the best protection in a lightweight riding helmet, and that vision continues,” said Shay Timms, CEO of Troxel. “The Liberty and Intrepid are not simply low profile helmets, they are backed by Troxel's safety record, a record unparalleled in the industry, and we couldn't be more thrilled to offer riders these new styles.”

SALIDA, CO, April 2, 2012: On her newest DVD in the “From the Ground Up” series, Goodnight works with a young horse (Picabo YC of Colorado’s Yarmony Creek Sport Horses) who had been trained well in the round pen and learned to lead well by halter—and had even learned to understand bit pressure. The filly had never been ridden until the taping of the Ready to Ride DVD. The DVD explains Julie’s philosophies of what’s typically called “colt starting” and explains a low-stress training process to help the horse prepare well for life as a respectful riding partner. The DVD is on sale now at http://shoppling.JulieGoodnight.com.

 

Join Julie as she guides you through the first ride. Shot over five days and with an amazing young filly who had been prepared with the methods taught on the previous DVDs in Goodnight’s training series, Round Pen Reasoning, Lead Line Leadership and Bit Basics, Julie shows you that starting a horse under saddle doesn't have to be dramatic orscary. Broken down into steps you can understand and apply, you'll find this DVD a great resource as you train your horse!

 

“We chose the perfect filly for this DVD—she was properly prepared, her training progressed well, and she showed the typical reactions of a young horse starting under-saddle. I hope people will see from this video that when youtake your time and use a systematic approach to training, colt-starting doesn’t have to be wild and traumatic,” says Goodnight.

 

This DVD is a thorough, step-by-step process for introducing a horse to the rider, once the horse has had round pen, lead line and bitting work. This video includes first saddling, first mounting, first ride and teaching cues to the horse. Approximately 2 hours.

 

Released in April 2012: $39.95.

SALIDA, CO, February 6, 2012: It’s colt-starting month on Horse Master with Julie Goodnight—airing Monday night, Friday morning and Saturday night on RFD-TV (DirecTV 345, Dish 231). Starting this week, Goodnight works with a young horse (Picabo YC of Colorado’s Yarmony Creek Sport Horses) who had been trained well in the round pen and learned to lead respectfully by halter—and had even learned to understand bit pressure. The filly had never been ridden until the taping of the four shows to air February 2012.

 

Watch Horse Master every week in February 2012 for a new segment about colt starting. You’ll learn to introduce the horse to tack, make sure the horse is comfortable with the mounting process, teach the horse to accept a rider’s weight, and finally introduce the horse to cues from the rider. All the stages happen with little stress to the horse and without a buck! The colt-starting process—with proper preparation and Goodnight’s methods—can be a calm, stress-free process.

 

Week of February 5 HM506 “Born to Ride, Part 1” On Horse Master: teaching a colt to accept the pad and saddle for the first time.

Week of February 12 HM507 “Born to Ride, Part 2” On Horse Master: teaching a colt to accept a rider mounting and dismounting.

Week of February 19 HM508  “Born to Ride, Part 3” On Horse Master: teaching a colt to get used to the rider’s weight and move forward with the rider.

Week of February 26 HM509 “Born to Ride, Part 4” On Horse Master: teaching a colt the cues from the saddle for her first independent ride. 

 

Pre-Release Special on New Colt-Starting DVD: Ready to Ride: Free Shipping!

Join Julie as she guides you through the colt-starting process. Shot over five days and with an amazing young filly who had been prepared with the methods taught on the previous DVDs in Goodnight’s training series, Round Pen Reasoning, Lead Line Leadership and Bit Basics, Julie shows you that colt starting doesn't have to be dramatic or scary. Broken down into steps you can understand and apply, you'll find this DVD a great resource as you train your horse!

 

“We chose the perfect filly for this DVD—she was properly prepared, her training progressed well, and she showed the typical reactions of a young horse starting under-saddle. I hope people will see from this video that when you take your time and use a systematic approach to training, colt-starting doesn’t have to be wild and traumatic,” says Goodnight.

 

This DVD is a thorough, step-by-step process for introducing a horse to the rider, once the horse has had round pen, lead line and bitting work (this is the fourth DVD in Goodnight’s From the Ground Up series and builds on the work shown in the previous DVDs). This video includes first saddling, first mounting, first ride and teaching cues to the horse. Approximately 2 hours.

 

Releases in March 2012. Regular price: $39.95.
