Just another one of these

Doing liberty jumping is so important for the horse to gain confidence with themselves during jumping without having no one on their back to tell them what to do and a thing I like to do after liberty jumping is to stretch all the body and the horse back and if the horse want I teach some tricks

I tried to do a pole course but this happened with all the 6 poles around the area 🤣🤣 so I let him do what he wanted but doing some poles exercises are very good for your horse P.S: my horse was a trotter and he did trotting courses 2 years ago and he started jumping September 2023🤣🤣🤣

I practiced this one today! I tried to get it on camera but my pivo seemed convinced that the fence post was more horse-shaped than me 🤷‍♀️ Excellent to work on a horse that falls onto the inside shoulder (don't they all sometimes?). I found that I got more engagement from the hind end generally after practicing this a few times each way. So, this is technically a straightness exercise but I also found it helped with collection. If you struggle with shoulder-fore or shoulder-in (or haven't done these before), try thinking about it as moving your entire upper body - hands, shoulders, head - in the direction of the bend. This controls the shoulder; no need to pull on any reins or go crazy, just shift everything above the waist to the right/left like you are turning a cart in the store. Do it at the walk first. Hope this helps! This is from the same book that @JessamynJ🌶️ recommended - it's one of my favorites!

I think a very important "exercise" is to play around with your horse and reward without pressure to do things perfectly. Here's a bit of fun we had last Sunday

Not everything is riding!! Yesterday we went for a nice little walk with Draco and my dog, Tigger. It's a brilliant exercise as you spend time with your horse, learn how he behaves and acts with different things and improve your bond.

We're having improvement on horsemanship. She's learning to move, stop and go backwards, also to move around. Is better on her left hand, but we're improving small steps on her right hand. At first I couldn't move her with the rope on her right hand, now I can do it, next step is to go on poles on the ground with her right hand at trot.

I found a great set of exercises that I thought I'd share with you all🤍 〰️Requirements:4 poles, 4 cavaletti or 6 poles, 4 cavaletti (see diagram below) 📏Tips for setting up:Place two poles to form an alley of 1.3 metres width parallel to the centreline, preferably at G and D. Set up the four cavaletti between B and E with a distance of 1.3 metres. Make sure the two inner cavaletti and the two pairs of poles are all in line to build a straight alley down the centreline ⚫️Objective:Ride a three-loop serpentine with each loop touching the long side (red line). Practise rising trot over the poles. Changing the rein this frequently engages the hind legs and the back and builds up strength. Always aiming at the centre of the pole requires horse and rider to be focused ⚪️Options: – After the poles ride a transition to walk and then trot on again. These transitions in quick succession foster suppleness and strengthen the hind leg – Ride transitions on the centreline: Ride trot-walk transitions or simple changes on the centreline between the poles (blue and green line) – Decrease the distance between the outer pair of poles to 0.8 metres. Start with the three-loop serpentines at a walk, then trot on after the first two poles, continue at trot over the cavaletti at X, then go back to walk over the last two poles – Change the poles to form a 90 degree angle to the centreline – two poles between F and K, four cavaletti at X, and two poles at M and H. Keep all distances between the poles at 1.30 metres. This is very beneficial for both of your concentration levels as you have to maintain the same regular trot rhythm between and over the poles.
