Who is Sarah S on You Tube?

I can not believe that Expert Village ( on You Tube) accepts anyone that self proclaims they are a so called expert ! Especially when it come to dangerous things like horse care.

You must go look at any of her 1 -2 minute video wonders.......

They should be called

What NOT TO DO ! So many of them have blatant NO NO's and very dangerous actions.........beware of so called horse experts!


I will attach a few links to some of the most pitiful..........

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVV3k...eature=related

http://youtube.com/watch?v=-BMH9hGQPMA

and about 30 more...........

They are dangerous!

We all need to flag those we wtch and mark them as dangerous

That's scary! But if you look @ the comments, a lot of people are telling her off saying how she doesn't know anything!

Frightenning.

And I am sure her "Expert Village" lable may give her some credibility...but hopefully not. How on earth does she qualify for Expert Village status?

I couldn't get any of her riding videos to work through Expert Village.

If she's an expert than I think that we all have PHD's in horses! I love that her 15.3hh turns out to be a 12hh horse with her wonderful horse expert measuring system. Anyone notice that in the jumping that the horse is NOT collected at the jump and had no scope, plus when they land she looks as though she's going to fall off, no balance, PLUS did anyone see a helmet? Yah that a good lesson to teach kids, try jumping your horse with NO helmet cause a concusion won't hurt you.

What?? I used to live in WA State and never heard about a All Around QH title..is this for real?
Those vids were embarassing.
Ah to be young and know everything..I loved the way she measured her horse.
The horse does seem well trained-if not well handled..bet she bought him trained.

I posted these a little while back, they have removed some of them, like the one with her putting the splint boots on backwards and telling you to pull them as tight as you can!!

I love the showmanship one, saying "I've been to Worlds" as she proceeds to yank the horse to a halt, Yes I bet you have been there

I saw a comment on one of her videos that said "Expert Village called and they want their idiot back"

No that wasn't a comment I posted...However, I can't say I disagree with the sentiments expressed.

Her videos are almost as bad as the "man vs wild" guy's video of finding "wild" horses. BTW- his "wild" horses were perfectly groomed--oh yeah and shod.

Noni, I am pretty sure you would be safe!

All riders make mistakes, but we don't put them on Youtube and lable them as expert demonstrations!

I just watched the jumping one...poor horse getting jerked in the air with what looks like a curb! Kind horse though.

Tmom--if you ever see the video of her "cantering over the jump...something about a two point seat" ( can you tell I don't ride english? lol) it will put the lie to the English horse and rider part of that award.

Every one of her videos proves to me that she bought that horse after it was trained. I think the classic ones are the jump, measuring, and lunging though. Those three videos exemplify complete and total lack of understanding of what she is trying to demonstrate.

wow that is horribly depressing that she calls herself an expert, no matter what she has won, the vid on jumping was jus horrible. I haven't jumped in a few years and I bet I could teach jumping better than her, or for that matter any one on HT even if they havent jumped a horse before or have never had horses that are big enough to jump ex the minis

we really should get her off of there so no one watches and copies her and hurts themselves or their horses because they watched her
