Last week we said goodbye to Peggy … a beautiful mare owned by Dana Taylor … this video highlights the importance of having a horse travelling soft, in a good balanced body position and relaxed.
Peggy came here to further her education, Dana had done an absolutely wonderful job with her ground work and bringing such a gorgeous mare.
After some weeks training Peggy learnt how to carry herself soft, balanced and light across all paces and throughout transitions, learnt to pick up the right canter leads both ways, she learnt quite a few manouvers including backing different lines, side pass, leg yields, maintaining balanced circles, counter bend or counter arcs, rollbacks, walk to canter transitions, started spins, etc.
she was also introduced to working cattle and of course went on trails and did as many different obstacles as I could think of over the weeks haha
We often are told to keep our horses in a good frame but what does that actually mean and why is it important we do so????
This video shows how the horse can simply do everything we ask of them with a lot more ease when we help them find and maintain good body posture.
Turn the sound up to hear my babbling on the subject 👂🏽🤣
The rest of Peggy’s training video will be put up later on.
