Part 1: Boyd has the riders jump three fences individually. He challenges them to land lightly and be soft and smooth in their riding. When a rider has a tough distance, Boyd opens the discussion on how to react when coming into a fence and not finding a good distance. He explains that he always prefers to go in for a deep distance rather than a big gappy one, and he encourages the riders to sit quietly in these moments and support their horse as they find a take off point. Boyd offers feedback and advice to a rider who tends to throw her upper body over fences.
