Increasing Collectibility From The Ground

Justyna Rucinska from Poland, joins us to share one of her favorite exercises to increase your horse's flexibility from the ground. This is a simple but very powerful exercise that will require great trust and feel, as it helps the horse to relax through the very sensitive poll area. This exercise is especially excellent for horses who have a head tilt. I must emphasize that this exercise must be done with great softness, clarity, and feel, or it would be easy to create tension instead of release it
