Dan T June 30

CAN DO attitude. priority busy busy busy, changing myself--I must see a change. Patience vs persistance. POWER UP
Try's commitment to the relationship: I am now the one giving 75 or 90%!
Stick to me over the barrel/avoiding the jump or other dominance/bad attitude: Play the catch me game when she has the bad attitude or is sneaky about avoiding tasks or only partially does tasks. Change her from side to side until she turns toward me then draw her by walking forward with power up attitude on my part. After she draws, go back to the original task. Repeat as needed.

Falling leaf and the definition of allow at neutral
Carrots for right side lateral flexibility
Improved muscling on crest.

1. Point to point --try stopping 10' in front of the fence--??claustrophobic in zone 1??
2. I have earned the right to use spurs
3. Push my comfort zone on canter speed
4. Canter: Pounding on the front end develops the wrong muscles and isn't good for Try
5. Riding biomechanics: lots of shoulder swing/weave, rib cage, HQ isolations and transitions.
6. Sideways on the rail at a trot
7. Wheelbarrow into canter simple lead changes: 2 leg start and what happened to direct rein start?
8. Gates - in and out of open gates for relaxation, sweet spot and backup. Also applies to opening and closing gates.
9. Check saddle fit - shims pocket shape below the triangle, camping fabric walmart?
