It can be so easy to slide into auto-pilot, especially when we're working with horses we know well. Awareness is the key to improving so many things with our horses (and in the rest of our lives!!). <br />Thank you for reminding us of this!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12205503861039668458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5514570043236701833.post-42612432502228205082017-04-27T16:56:53.458+03:002017-04-27T16:56:53.458+03:00Vallu looks so good in pink! also that counting st...Vallu looks so good in pink! also that counting strides in a circle thing really works. my trainer told me about it once and it makes so much sense. i find that if i count the number of strides in each quarter of my circle and aim to make the quarters equivalent, my circles are much much better. now if only i could REMEMBER to do it hahaemmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686949099663199382noreply@blogger.com
