This week

This week is going to be nice weather wise, so hopefully the roads stay clear and we can have a good week of lessons!

Although yesterday afternoon was filled with the whining drone of snowmobiles, and had me wishing for 20 below again....

Dressage lessons will work on Shoulder fore and lengthenings (shoulder for for a few strides, then lengthening to ensure the horse is still active in the trot!)

Dressage and jumping will work on true bend and counter bend exercises.

Jumping will be doing a course again, and really focusing on using the ends of the arena to hit the "reset" button to rebalance the horse and get back the needed course pace (either increase or decrease).

We will also be trying to get the horse's to push the soccer ball while riding...just make sure you don't push it at another horse until they get used to seeing it move!
