Paddock: grooming stuff, saddle stuff, notes etc everything moved out there in advance.
Played treats on the barrels circling game with variations--not going whole circle and changing it into sidepass, change of direction, yoyo etc. hmmm make up patterns for this or get really good at improvisation??? use more obstacles, vary methods of driving from one place to another.
lovely spin and go the first time we did it
sideways towards and away--Try really understood
Saddling--best ever at swinging it up there. Try less girthy when eating grass!
Ring: mounting: nearly forgot rock, Try walked off too soon--need to anticipate and see if I am cueing her or if she has just decided its time to go.
Had planned to continue level 1 review but others coming out to ride so progressed to 2 carrot stick cantering patterns, change of direction w/simple changes. Some a little wild. On the rail--arms folded etc. cloverleaf at trot lovely, up at times in canter.
Sidepass:
- did w/reins ala level 2 to let Try know what was coming
- one stick--didn't work so well as need to block front end just a bit
- two sticks--wow she had it 10 steps or so and briskly (my focus, body position)
Try knows stick as signal to move front end and disengage hind end.
But can I get full lateral flexion w/stick????
