"What can you do to improve the quality of your shoulder ins and haunches in?  Check out the tips in this video for more ideas.  Of course, it's not as easy as it sounds, but all you need to do is add more activity from your horses hind feet as it steps up into the connection of your rein"

Now that Susan and Beau are competing in 2nd level dressage it is time to focus on improving the quality of their lateral work. Last year we started Beau on these movements and he was not always happy with them.  He does not like new changes it seems. During that time he would do the basics, but did not want to take up contact and also was not actively stepping up in the rein contact by becoming more active with his hind feet. (Oh, my gosh... this sounds like dressage!)  However, this year, he seems much more confident and is letting us ask him for more energy and with more of a rein connection.  

Can you see how much better Beau is looking as Susan works him through the process?  Are you ready to try this on your horse? Let us know how it works for you as we love your feedback.
