Ik ben ze al vaak tegen gekomen op internet, beurzen en advertenties. Nu heb ik er dan toch één besteld via ebay uit de VS, een Rhythm bead.
Dit wordt er over de Rhythm Bead gezegd:
Horse Jewelry Designed For More Than Just The Looks!
Beads and other adornments were used by Native Americans on their horses for decoration, unity and safety. Rhythm beads (also called "speed Beads") are incredibly popular and are more than just a pretty necklace for your horse. They can help develop confidence and rhythm in both horse and rider. The necklace hangs around your horse's neck just above where a breast collar goes and has bells whose slight jingles calm and relax both the horse and rider and are useful for alerting both wildlife and other riders that you are approaching while you are out on the trail.
The beads can be used to enhance a true rhythm. These beads can be used as a training tool to help horse and rider improve their rhythm together. You can feel and hear when your horse needs to step up its gait or when you need to change your timing. You can also count strides by the sound of the bells alone.
They are great to use while starting youngsters. They listen more to the bells than to other things that might otherwise cause them concern. This is a great help where there are many distractions to bother a young or newly tamed horse. They are also a big favorite with riders of all disciplines. Some NBHA, Rodeo and 4H competitors say that their horses run harder and faster when wearing rhythm beads. Rhythm Beads are not new to the horse scene. The Native Americans would adorn their horses with beads, shells, feathers, etc. It was believed that these adornments held great powers that would keep a horse and his rider safe during times of danger as well as assisting them in moving as one. The various decorations placed on a horse during those early days would also show a tribe member's rank in the tribe. The beads, shells, feathers, etc. did not come easy ~ they had to be earned! The beauty of these horse and rider teams is undeniable!
Ik vroeg me af of er hier meer mensen zijn die een rhythm bead hebben en uiteraard hoe het bevalt.
Heb voor Quinoa een mooie rode besteld, ben benieuwd, lijkt me wel leuk om door het bos te rinkelen
Hij hangt regelmatig om Fleur haar nek, met buitenritten, maar ook met longeren en in de bak. Het is fijn rijden, een soort ritme! En het rinkelt inderdaad leuk! Ik zal vanavond eens een foto van Fleur maken met haar ketting om! 
, m'n zus is ebay kenner, dus die heeft even een hele mooie geregeld voor me
