Todays Tip: Horses in general respond much better to pushing than pulling. If you want to create more softness where there is resistance, offer a “feel” then back it up with your legs (or stick if on the ground) with steady or rhythmic pressure to create the response you want, then release. Repeat as necessary, but dont be in a big hurry to drive home numerous lessons over and over and over again in quick succession back to back. Instead, let your horse SOAK and absorb the comfort you deliver which tends to provide even more powerful and lasting understanding. Soon your horse’s “comfy spot” will be lightness and you will have created it without pulling, which often only contributes to more brace.
