Fabulous weekend was had by all at the Patrice Edwards clinic- I am still processing the feelings and information from my lessons and the very useful lecture.
Key sound bite for me was to slow the shoulders and ask the hind leg to quicken.
Key feelage was elbow to hind leg, fist forward to bit, elbow to hind fist to bit, in a rhythm, one being an upper arm function the other being a lower arm function.
Great to watch the horses processing too- a key element of the work is to set the horse up for success so that the next level of work is the next logical offer from the exercise. Sally’s Archie is now fully better and learning Piaffe- how exciting.
More to follow…
