And things continue to improve even if we aren't quite as good at home. Plus I think I tend to have better position at lessons than when I'm by myself at home.EventingSaddlebredStylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07610596082916022402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4318842770364105067.post-89385108419515516082018-01-03T12:23:35.573-06:002018-01-03T12:23:35.573-06:00I'm sure January and February will make me pay...I'm sure January and February will make me pay the price.

But with him sideways seems to be more effective than forward because he likes to lock his shoulders. The lateral steps help to unlock them and get things flowing.EventingSaddlebredStylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07610596082916022402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4318842770364105067.post-92137050481890574772018-01-03T12:19:21.815-06:002018-01-03T12:19:21.815-06:00I used to be upset when my horse was less than per...I used to be upset when my horse was less than perfect for lessons but then my mom reminded me that growth comes from those moments and having the trainer there to help you through it is what its all about.

Carmen bounces off the contact too and gets all mad and huffy about it. Legging her forward is the key to that but not always easy.
