Karen helps a student with their sensitive Arabian. The rider is having trouble finding a harmonious connection with the reins. Karen rides the horse to demonstrate how to use Basic Alignment Exercise to help the horse learn how to find a balance where he can soften his body and find the Sweet Spot inside the connection. This will allow him to find more freedom of movement. This is great for anyone trying to develop a more consistent and harmonious connection with the reins.
