Today we're talking about bending. The goal of this is to have your horse bend and give when you pick up your inside rein and add inside leg. Why do we do this? To get your horse soft, responsive and gain total body control. Having a horse that isn't soft is like driving a car without power steering. It is not very comfortable.
What body parts are we focusing on? Head, neck and ribcage.
We want your horses to be like a Ferrari. We want you to be able to pick up your reins with the lightest pressure and your horse gives to you. So get out and start bending!!
The goal of my program is to create safe, quiet and controlled horses for performance and pleasure. I use natural horsemanship techniques and emphasize building solid foundations from the ground up.
