Karen coaches a rider with a very athletic, energetic horse. Karen shows her how to use a simple exercise that will challenge the horse enough to cause her to change her balance, and end up at a slower tempo with more cadence, without saying 'No' to the energy. By doing this exercise the rider is also able to sit more balanced with a seat that is more 'plugged in'. This video is great for anyone playing with their working or collected gaits with a horse that offers a lot of 'go'.
