Karen teaches a student, Elisabeth, on a horse she is working with to help her find a better foundation. The horse is a big, long mover, but does not have the basic responsibilities of self regulation of speed, or steering. She also does not have a positive relationship with the reins. You will see Karen, in one lesson, give them some foundational exercises to get the horse participating in the building of her responsibilities. This video is excellent for anyone who feels like they need a horse who is more 'comfortable transportation', where the basics are easier.
