Friesian Tjerk – going bridelless!

Tjerk is a friesian gelding, living in Finland. He has a very gentle and sincere personality, and although he is a muscular and physically strong horse he is really easy to handle with a very little physical power. Tjerk therefore enjoys much going completely bridellss! Tjerk has been working as a TV-star (serial “Pelle Positiivi ja Sinisilmä”), a show horse, a theatre actor and he knows many special horse tricks (laying down, kneeling down, sitting, jumping up). Tjerk is trained for an extreme riding sport, trick/cossack riding ‘zigitovka’, for medieval tournament riding tricks and also for usual dressage. As a zigitovka horse Tjerk has been mainly working with a trick rider Vladimir Georgiev. In this video Tjerk is working with his owner Tina. This video was made when Tjerk was going “liberty” the very firt time, so the basic trust is essential, everything else is easy when tht is ok :)

    i am more impressed with the coloured horse standing like a rock in the middle, and not moving while the other one is bombing around

  3. Rubiinitar says:

    He has got that statue standing talent, allright, wise guy :) Though he can move as well: “tinker feija going brideless”

    it’s not that easy to sit on a friesian in a trot and i know it!! i always rode without a saddle on her because the owners didn’t have a saddle for her and it was really hard to stay on her in trot!! try it yourself!! so don’t be so rude this lady is doing a great job!!

    i always ride my friesian stallion bareback because i only have one jumping saddle and its fitted for my red dun quarter mare =-p

    Thanks, my Friesian is a really sweet person. That tinker is pleasant too, but in a different way. Tjerk is innocent like a little puppy, never makes anything against you.
    He has been acting again in Finnish TV-serial, performing as a circus horse. He made a really good and quite a difficult role, had to canter freely in the forrest and come against the camera alone…
