Inside rein, inside leg!

Angel was lovely and a bit more energetic today. her downward transitions were much better as I had more leg on.

This morning i went to teach several students who have a schooling show locally. Progress seems to be slow for one gal but some real ah ha moments happened for a coupl of others, the lessons were good and productive especially as my daughter got on one of the horses and demostrated how to get him to soften to the bridle and step up with his hindquarters. She did a good job and the student was able to recreate and get the feel of having the horses soft in her hands.

Silver was again, worried about the canter so i let go of the outside aides and just used the inside-it didn't take long for him to settle down even though the reins were not holding him together. His energy is a lot of fun. I enjoy him.
