MODULE 3 - REFINING YOUR FLATWORK (PART 1)
Welcome to Module 3!
In this module, we will work further on your rider biomechanics, and on skills which can help your horse’s balance. In this first part, we look at turning and shoulder control. Once you can keep your horse straight and control the shoulders on turns and circles, your horse will quickly become more balanced.
Don't forget you can submit videos of you and your horse practicing the groundwork skills and starting your ridden groundwork into the forum for Ali Wakelin to review.
