This week in lessons we are going to be working on:
- Halt-trot-halt transitions, which included feeling if the horse's halt is balanced enough to be able to trot off from.
- Turn on the forehand, including feeling if the horse is cross under properly.
- Leg Yielding parallel to the wall
- Jump riders will also work on position over fences, and having a straight horse in front of the jump, even when coming to the jump at an odd angle.
Also...be forewarned...I will have the camera out to take pictures of lessons in the outdoor arena this week! If you don't want me to post your picture on the website, or in future CHT articles, please let me know...or just wear a really odd outfit and I will take the hint. Don't worry...I only use favourable photos, but am also looking at educational/demo photos. I also need a good photo of Jerry and of Tango if anyone has one. Can be a face shot, a riding shot, a show shot? Jerry is a nice looking horse when being ridden, but not that photogenic otherwise, and Tango is so rarely clean!
