March.
In like a lion our like a lynx
This spring weather really stinks!
But...tomorrow is April! This must mean better weather! So this week we will have to surprise jumps to really test that we have our horses connected on both sides, straight, and obedient (aka narrow & spooky jumps) so be prepared! On a plus side, these jumps will both be soft if you come off into them...
The course will involve these jumps along with poles to create a technical course that will require rider's to make sure they have the horse's balance, attention and focus. Last week's course which finished on the same skinny grid it started on, really showed how much some horse's become a little less straight, and a little less attentive as they go through a course. It is really important to establish and use a reset button so every jump is taken with a balanced, straight and attentive horse!
