In this video Karen rides Teo while narrating how she changes her intention and strategy in each moment based on his mental/emotional state. Teo has some residual stress connected with arenas from his previous life. He is a lovely horse who can go introverted when stressed. He has a history of exploding when over his limit. Watch how Karen seeks to gain his trust and dissolve tension while riding.
