After what I understand she is using positive reinforcement and mutual respect. I don't think she believes in that she has to be "the leader" for her horses.
The horse likes her and wants to be there with her.
Here comes another video thats nice to see.

Thanks for telling us about her. I do a lot of free-schooling and even though I'm not as good as Ellen I love the play element to it and how by using your own body language you can get your horse to improve the way they move apart from the relationship angle of course. It's given me lots of good ideas. Will definitely check out more of her work :)
