Hi all šŸ˜Š asking for your help to get the word out re: summer camps- the first two are barely half full which is so surprising for us but camps go purely to hay for the schoolies after expenses! These summer camps/and summer lessons are crucial to being able to provide our amazing schoolies year round. We are currently posting some of them to move on to new homes due to the lack of work for them as well.

One of the hardest things for riders to accept in developing or retraining horses is this:
Correct work often looks slow, quiet, and even a little boring for a long time.
Young horses and retraining horses should not be rushed into bigger movement, faster tempo, or more expression before they have the balance and strength to carry it.
If the horse is constantly pushed in front of his natural balance, the hind legs never truly learn to step under and carry weight. Rather, the horse learns to run forward to avoid falling.
This is where so many problems begin:
ā€¢ Quick, hurried rhythm that looks stiff
ā€¢ Heavy shoulders
ā€¢ Hollow backs
ā€¢ Tight under-necks
ā€¢ Leaning on the hand
ā€¢ Lack of true throughness
ā€¢ Difficulty collecting later
The horse may look flashy for the moment, but underneath, he is running on imbalance rather than developing strength and confidence in his own biomechanics.
In correct development, the rider allows the horse time to organize his body.
That means:
ā€¢ Slower tempos
ā€¢ Smaller steps
ā€¢ Relaxed repetitions
ā€¢ Long periods of stretching
ā€¢ Transitions done without rushing
ā€¢ Allowing the hind leg time to catch up to the front end
Especially in the beginning, the work should almost feel boring and overly simple.
Gymnastic development is not created through energy it is created through relaxation, balance, and repetition of basic skills.

As the horse becomes stronger and more confident in his balance, he naturally begins to offer more.
More reach.
More suspension.
More power.
More self-carriage.
More expression.
Without the need for the rider to keep trying to produce it. His body became capable of producing it honestly and without pressure.
The best movement is developed patiently.
Not manufactured prematurely.
