Have been working on simple transitions and missing transitions, and is finding it so easy to go straight into the gait i ask off the strength of leg command. Half passing, leg yielding shoulder ins ect improving bending and flexion. She is getting better although still a little incosistant with her work, but shes only rising 6. well yesterday we were getting ready to go out a hack and as we were heading down the drive i felt gizzy was really underneath her self and putting alot of impulsion into her trot so i sat deep closed the hands, put my legs on strong and set the schooling stick on her rump and straight into a proper passage, was able to watch her in the conservatory windows. Then i closed the hands a little more and she stopped on the spot and did the pieffe.[:D][:D]. I think she wants to be a grand prix dressage horse, i just have never had a horse that can execute so many advanced movements so easy and effortless. heres a couple of pics about 10 mins into her last schooling session [IMG]http://i984.photobucket.com/albums/ae322/mistonia1/2010/march/IMG_5420.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i984.photobucket.com/albums/ae322/mistonia1/2010/march/IMG_5429.jpg[/IMG] [/quote]    -  HTML is OFF | Forum Code is ON    Insert a Flickr Image or Video Check here to include your profile signature.
