The Rider's Seat, Ride 3
Susanne works to help JJ keep the connection of her lower legs. She explains how this connection will help push her center of gravity higher, which will allow the horse's back to come up more and allow more quickness of the hind legs.

The Rider's Seat, Ride 4
Susanne helps a rider work to keep her horse forward, control his shoulders and keep him from leaning. All of this is in an effort to help him stay light and learn to carry himself. They take time to go back and work on the basics.

The Rider's Seat, Ride 5
Susanne has JJ hold a sponge/straw tool in her hands, which acts as a visual to help keep her hands from turning down. The trick is to keep the straws as parallel as possible ... if they cross or are uneven, she knows her hands are incorrect. She also works on improving the horse's self-carriage ...
