💚🐴Working Equitation/Obstacles and trying something different🐴💚
Ever thought about doing something a little bit out of the sand box with your horse? It is incredibly beneficial whether you want to compete in that sport of Working Equitation or just want to have a well rounded well educated horse that is reliable in all areas.

However the caveat to all that is introducing your horse to different obstacles in a manner that builds their confidence and does not cause tension. I see a lot of horses that are just pushed through their fear and "made" to do the obstacle no matter what. You can see that stays with them and it not only costs you relationship with your horse but breaks down confidence instead of building it up. It costs you marks on course as no judge wants to see a tight, tense fearful horse not enjoying their job.

To me the slower you go the better it is, and I do mean slow, like one foot at a time and giving the horse time to process where exactly their feet are and giving them time to be ok with it. A lot of very obedient horses will do it for you but you can see they get rushed, build tension and just want to get it over and done with. A bit like float loading but that is another conversation for a different day.

I am running a small clinic at home here in Allora September 6th where we will be doing exactly that, slowly introducing some fun obstacles and maybe running some mini comps to see how calm happy and confident you can have your horse at the end of the day.
