Nancy has been working on her position with her other horse, Posh. She has to think about 'hitching-up' her right seat bone and filling into her left side to avoid sliding right and collapsing left. She puts this into practice on Rupee and thinks about 'shrink wrapping' herself to match Rupee's tone.
Ali gets Nancy working on walk-halt transitions. These show that Rupee has become much more responsive. Nancy has to focus on her hands 'pushing against something' and 'keeping the lid on the toothpaste'.
Nancy has has a few problems with Rupee recently and this has made her a little anxious riding him, especially in trot. Ali works on keeping Nancy vertical in trot and feeling 'back' to avoid unbalancing Rupee. Once they are going in trot, Nancy works on Rupee's straightness. She also has to keep her 'fairy wings' shut! They also work on trot - walk transitions and shaping the walk - trot transition.
