Starting to feel that I am getting back into the swing of things.
1. Sephira--riding with draw reins--lovely trot and canter. Remember to use leg for forward energy with Sephira especially at the canter.
next time: ride the canter on a loose rein and for the trot--light connection looking for softening, jiggling LEGS to soften.
B Me:
1. Sephira--after riding.
a. Did fairly well with alignment--she was able to "see me" so much better than yesterday.
b. "Catch the thought" shifting my weight and focusing energy and line of lead/halter to her chest was the answer. The energy ribbon was clutter.
2. Try--her usual self today--groom, hang out and B Me:
a. Some melting, aligned well by 2nd ask
b. catch the thought--she was even better than last Thursday. Nose and chest in one movement from focus on her chest. She knew what I was asking and offered--several nice ones--the third with several steps back. Gave treat and quit.
Tuesday rode Sephira with draw reins WTC on the grass in front of the barn as that was the best footing on the farm. Went really well.
