Part 1: Asia works with a rider whose horse gets her neck so short that it's very hard to get her to use her back and hind end. She explains that though the mare has good energy, the rider now we needs to get relaxation. If a horse is tense and tight, then likely they're not in balance and or very attentive. Asia helps the rider work first on achieving balance so this can be a corner stone which helps hold the mare in a set tempo, so the rider can release ore and more and create a more relaxed ride. They work to keep the mares shoulders in front of her haunches, and once she is in this alignment, the rider can lift her back and help her relax.
