This lesson has also been in my head called various things like “over-riding disconnects you from your horse” and “effective turning.”
Have a plain chair to sit in for this audio which flows from the video lesson, to a seat lesson for yourself to feel the disconnection from your horse that happens when we over-ride. Face the back of the chair so that you can have your hands at roughly rein height when we’re ready for the group lesson part.
This is another of our old monthly seminars that has such a big application to our work that I’ve brought a shortened version through to Fast Track to make sure you don’t miss it. There’s three BIIIGGG concepts in here, so keep your eye out for them. Helping your horse to heal while you’re riding is just one of them.
This video and the discussion we’ll have about it on the audio and on the forum, is about turning effectively, how NOT to disconnect from your horse physically while turning and another example of what I call OVER-RIDING – which disconnects us from our horse and confuses communication AND about a beautiful opportunity to help your horse to heal while you are riding.
This video was taken very early in Kristina’s stay with us, before she developed the kind of body awareness that she has now and before she healed her childhood ar thritis. After we watch the video we do a group lesson about feeling over-riding for ourselves.
Today’s Lesson
I’ve edited this seminar to start at the video lesson, so open up your Youtube below, hit play and pause and then you can hit play again when I ask you to, so that we are in sync. The lesson itself is only 19 minutes – I’ve left some of people’s after lesson questions there because some of you will find those very useful.
