Lyda Pola of Starlight Farm in Gorham, ME, is a horse trainer whose focus is natural horsemanship and the relationship between horse and rider. She brought Sunday, a now 3-year-old mustang she adopted as a yearling, to perform several ground exercises.
Last year she was the tandem horse for Lyda's presentation. This year Sunday demostrated her training in backing up and moving forward with Lyda letting out and pulling in the lead line. They ran side by side to music and at one point with Lyda only holding on to her mane, using her body and voice to communicate to the horse.
