14m
You will meet Barbara and Ponce as they looked the first day they arrived at Karen's, then watch as Karen helps them over several weeks to improve their balance, alignment and posture. He is a wonderful horse with a very capable rider, but is scattered in his focus and disconnected in his body. You will see the basic alignment exercise done in a more refined way to find the place of balance. You will also see a way to use halt-walk transitions in shoulder-in to help engage and connect the horse. You can see another video with them called: Alignment For Throughness - Barbara and Ponce.
