Thoughtful Riding, Flatwork & Grids | Allison Springer | PART 02
7m 27s
Part 2: Allison reminds a rider with a horse having some issues, that ultimately all horses seek pressure and release. By not adjusting her body based on what her horse, who has tried to buck and rear, is doing the rider is quieter and creates a line of communication. Allison reiterates good lower leg position and demonstrates calf to ankle connection, then the riders begin to warm up. A horse that shies at the auditors gives Allison a chance to explain how to ride the pressure line, and how this concept can applied to many things from flatwork in a scary new arena, to teaching a horse to work with ditches or liverpools.
