Connection With Reins - Riding

16m
A paradigm-shifting video for creating a great connection with the reins. Karen discusses and demonstrates how to mix and match having connection with the reins (or not) with being precise in your focus (or not). Too often riders feel like they have to choose between being loose and light but imprecise… OR precise but tight in the contact. These exercises will help you get more conscious coordination between the part of you that talks about line of direction and the part of you connecting with the reins. This video really is for everyone who wants to know how to have a great connection with the reins.
