Thoughtful Riding, Flatwork & Grids | Allison Springer | PART 05
7m 46s
Part 5: The riders work at a trot and canter, focusing on maintaining the regular contact and keeping the horse moving forward down the center of the reins. Allison coaches them to switch from working to medium trot, and back again, using as little hand as possible. By closing their legs and using the seat, the riders work to be able to slow and collect their horses while keeping soft hands and staying relaxed. The group progresses to the canter, focusing on using body language and leg more than reins.
