Monday - Magic day

My message to Kathy Glielmi

> Thank you for that clarification about lifting shoulders--yes I felt it--yes subtle and I did not see it--will go back and look again.
>
> My first ride today by myself in the ring with Sefira--walk/trot/canter. I feel safe--Katie videotaped Saturday and I could see how safe she is.
> I am striving to be in sync with her trot and we are working out--between us--cueing gait transitions.
> Today what I wanted to do seemed to be what she wanted to do and what she seemed to want to do was what I wanted to do--very pleasant.
> Trotting on the big ring a few laps and cantering a circle in the dressage ring--soon off that circle.
> My first goal is communication between us on basics and it is coming quicker than I thought.
> She is not where Devon or Try are with subtle cueing but no reason why it can't happen.
> Look forward to dressage lessons with you fairly soon.
> Perhaps one week Try and one week Sefira--that would be in keeping with my need to practice and work things out on my own???
> I am excited.

> Elizabeth

Kathy's reply
Super for you, as usual I am game for what you want to focus on or who.  Glad you are feeling confident and comfortable with her.  As you know mares are often more sensitive.  It will take 6mo - year to really learn her, but if you are playing on-line with her it will probably come sooner.  See you in a week Me

Monday with Try: Lovely time together--groom, shower, treat rain rot, graze, dwell.
