Josh Lyons Horsemanship
Whoa Podcast About Horses Horsemanship
Josh Lyons Horsemanship Josh Lyons grew up learning horsemanship from his dad. John Lyons was one of the first trainers I remember seeing on back in the early 2000s. I was new to horses and really did not know what I was doing. The TV show showed me there was a whole style of horsemanship that was effective and, with work and study, easy for anyone to learn. Back in 2017, I was lucky enough to catch up and interview Josh's sister, , about her Lyons's No Limit Clinic. This year, I was working on some basic exercises, and I remembered watching John Lyons TV program, and that got me...

Breakaway From Cancer
Whoa Podcast About Horses Horsemanship
Breakaway From Cancer Today we are doing something a little different. Often, I get requests from someone to be on the show. They have a good book, a new piece of tack, or a good cause. There's not enough content for an entire show, but it's worthwhile information I think you's like to know. Since I'm producing a long version every other week, I thought I'd experiment with a short podcast in between. Let me know what you think. Beth Papopnik's friend and breakaway roper, Emily, contracted cancer. It was pretty serious and, as you can imagine, stressful. Beth and her friends wanted to help....

Horses in Ukraine
Whoa Podcast About Horses Horsemanship
Horses in Ukraine Horses in Ukraine have gotten a raw deal. Ukraine, in Eastern Europe, is a beautiful country about the size of Texas. says Ukraine is a unitary republic with a free-market economy. (While I'm not sure what that means exactly, as an American, it sounds pretty good to me.) Then, Russia decided it wanted to own the Ukraine, and a war broke out. The conflict places thousands of horses in the middle. Well, all animals really. Many humanitarian groups have stepped up to help. One of them, Ukrainian Equestrian Charity Foundation, is dedicated solely to helping horses. Crisis of...

Jeremy Dunn is a horseman and rancher living south of Bakersfield. Jeremy is a horse trainer and clinician, but I don't think he likes that label much. From what I've seen, Jeremy is more of an artist than a technician as he works with horses. As part of their Horsemanship series, Johnny Flores Horsemanship is hosting a clinic with Jeremy done at their ranch, March 11, 2023, in Acton, California. On today's show, we talk about his philosophy and what you can expect from the clinic.
I met Jeremy in 2014 and the following year he encouraged me to enter The Vaquero Heritage Trainers Challenge. Little did I realize how much the trajectory of my horsemanship career would change when I started my first horse at age 60. There were more than a few challenges, and Jeremy was always available to offer advice and suggestions. But, just like he said in this interview, Jeremy wanted me and my horse to find the answers on our own. I've been to several of Jeremy's clinics and have enjoyed every one. He has a laid-back teaching style and I always leave with more than a few ideas on how to improve my horsemanship.
