And back to working just a solidly as he was. :) I'm lucky that a lot of things I learn from the substitute translate to him very well. They are honestly very similar rides, except the mare is nicer in contact. :) Austenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13004088333430762406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5677504786349906999.post-27678068057621835802014-09-02T08:12:28.394-04:002014-09-02T08:12:28.394-04:00Haha, your Nancy's name does sometimes stand o...Haha, your Nancy's name does sometimes stand out to me.

With my lower leg securely on and back, my hips could relax and unlock. Then, I was able to follow Tori’s movement and stay with her instead of bracing against her movement. Her transitions immediately improved."<br />That is something i shall have to try to work on with Miss Nancy (when i get back into the saddle - hopefully this evening) as I think that may be my issue with halting her. I knew reading your blog would help me get a few light bulb moments of my own! *hugs*<br />Thanks!<br /><br />The one lesson i managed to take this month got me the same comment about my lowering my hands - you explained it much better than i could have, especially as i forgot about that tidbit when recapping my lesson LOL!Aoifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06324156483692821044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5677504786349906999.post-57176712330664612622014-08-28T19:10:52.203-04:002014-08-28T19:10:52.203-04:00She sounds really great!
