do you do sporting???? its common for me to practice laterals and pirouttes around poles..... ie instead of swerving through the line of bending- ask your horse to move sideways (half or sidepass) between them.... well i could probably think of more but thats all i got for now

I used to ride a school horse who would start pulling when you led her to the jumping ring and balk when you tried to enter the dressage ring. Horses definitely have their preferences just like people.

My advice would be to set up cavalletti around the ring and use them as part of your dressage exercises.
