How do i get my horse to loosen up to strangers?

Nikita is a 3-4 yr old black and white filly, she was a rescue horse. and its takes her awhile to earn your trust she trust me. but it was hard work i earned her trust my talking to her and other things. when she meet someone new she tends to get really tense and sometime freaks out. it takes about 2 weeks to earn her trust but i would like her to loosen up around strangers especially men. she is super smart u would believe how quick she learns things her training is gentle and calm . she loves to be talked to and praised for good behavior and she is a sweet heart, she gets very nervous around new ppl what can i do to help her loosen up and be ok when ppl are around

You can get your horse to loosen up to strangers by leading it out and taking it to another horse. Let it see the idea of someone above it and try riding on it. The horse will loosen up to strangers with time although it may have some bad experience at first.
