saddle training with parelli?

I have a 6 year old qh that i want to train to ride. she has pretty good ground manners although shes a bit pushy, but she has only had very very little work under saddle and that was a couple years ago. Now she doesnt like the saddle at all, when she sees it coming she heads the other way.. hahaha

im guessing you havent started the parelli training at all yet, so thats how i'll answer
first things first, DO NOT listen to people trying to talk you out of it, i know just how you feel.. whenever i ask a parelli related question on here i just get stick for it when all i want is a useful answer!! Parelli is the best decision i ever made, it changes your life and your horse's life for the better.

You've got the right idea, parelli will definiely help with saddling and riding your mare, i trained my filly from scratch with parelli and successfully saddled and backed her. There are 4 levels, the first two being ground based and the last two riding based. You must complete the first two before you move on or it will be impossible for you or your horse to grasp. I also strongly recommend to get the proper parelli equipment, i have never found anything that works better or more reliable. I cannot say how long it will take, it depends on the horse entirely. They all learn at different speeds, something that could take one horse 2 days to learn may take another horse 2 months. But to give you a rough guide it took me about a year and a half to complete level 1 and 2 with a fast learning horse.

Your best bet is to search the seven games on google and practice those with your horse first (you can also buy a dvd for this but the internet often gives you just as much info!). They are a good starting point and establish a good trust between you.

Then buy your level 1 pack, or the On Line patterns. The level 1 pack is not officially available through parelli any more, but you can get it on ebay. The patterns kits are the new version basically, but i found them a little harder to grasp if you are not used to parelli. But if you want to be officially assessed by parelli themselves then you need the patterns. I hope this is maiking sense lol.

Ok, the most helpful thing i found when i got to this stage was to hire a parelli instructor to guide you in the right direction and help you correct yourself and your horse. Just make sure you get a proper, parelli trained proffesional (they are listed on the parelli website). A lot of people claim to be parelli instructors but in fact are just learning themselves and getting money out of it. So don't be tricked into it!

I think thats about all the advice I can give right now. If you need more advice email an instructor (again, through the parelli website) as i have found them very useful for small or large queries.
hope i've helped you. Good luck on your parelli journey, your horse will thank you for it.
