We plan our clinic schedules so that one of us is here. That way, the horses stay in work. Together we have 25 horses in the stable. Five of them are ours, and the rest belong to clients that we teach on a regular basis. By reaction, I mean the reaction the horse has to the leg, staying sensitive.
Basics are a big thing.
For example, working on transitions can improve a horse's piaffe without schooling the movement itself. Obvious movements have to be trained, but most of the work is on basics. You are going to be giving a clinic in Delray Beach, Florida, sponsored by Gold Coast Dressage in December. I enjoy working with all levels of horses and riders as long as they work hard. I work with people from training level to grand prix.
