Noone but your coach can possibly answer this question for you. If you really want to know...talk to your instructor. Posted via Mobile Device

BearPony liked post by tinyliny On thread : Horse is heavy on my hands, how to fix?

The more and more horse people I meet, I realize that there are two camps. Those who want to ride right, and those who want to ride easy. When the former attempt to help the latter, the result is a...

natisha, if it makes you feel better, my Arabian mare feels free to spook anywhere. In fact, she ALWAYS does her "OMG Crouch" once within the first 100 yards down the street...at a place she can see...

BearPony liked post by Misty'sGirl On thread : Breaking 2 year olds

Opening a can of worms here lol, people have some strong views on this. Personally I'd never break a 2yo, they're just too young IMHO.

The issue with that is you have no control over how much of the supplemental feed each horse is receiving. You can have one horse get the bulk of the feed from EVERY bowl, and one horse who spends...

Or.... just learn to ride effectively to be able to lift the horse's back on your own, instead of forking out on various gadgets to make money for chiro's and so on. There is no need to be...

Nope. Riders can easily adjust to a sensitive horse. I would start her as you have mentioned, but without a drape in the rein, and using direct reining. The only thing the horse should be dull to is...
