Rhythm
Only with a consistent rhythm of your and your horse's movement will both of you be able to relax and find a swinging gait.
Suppleness
Too tense? Too loose? - A common struggle for riders. You will learn how to find the correct balance between relaxation and positive tension by learning to use your core. You will also learn how to help your horse relax and find positive engagement of his topline.
Symmetry And Lateral Work
You will learn about correct lateral work, which is a key ingredient for symmetry and balance.
Horse On The Bit
You will be working on a soft, steady contact to the horse's mouth where you feel this subtle, precious connection to the horse, and understand what it really means when the horse is "on the bit".
Impulsion Through Cavaletti
This should be in every rider's tool kit!
Cavaletti (ground pole) work is an amazing "workout" for your horse. And a ton of fun for horse and rider!
Collection
In this last step of this program, we are going to work on collection, meaning true self-carriage.

Feel And Improve The Bendability
Where does your horse bend well, too little, too much? What’s the difference between Flexion and Bending? Improve your horse’s flexibility and strength.
Feel And Improve The Canter
Canter is different to the other gaits. It’s asymmetrical and usually more energetic. It can be intimidating. Make canter part of your riding in an enjoyable way.
Feel And Influence The Body Parts
What does your horse’s shoulder do? Where are the hind feet going? Learn how to “talk to” your horse’s body parts to get them into alignment, and good balance, so that they are harmoniously working together for healthy biomechanics.
Feel And Improve The Connection
What exactly does a soft contact feel like? What head-neck position should your horse be in to move in a healthy way? What can you do with your hands to improve contact and self-carriage? And what should you not do?
