I've had a couple of bridle sessions with Bonbon the last two days and she's really starting to release and extend and relax her neck now. She's starting to 'know' the hand and accept it.
In the school with Remy, continuing on from the last session, paying particular attention to the release and relaxation through his neck, keeping the softness into the hand.
Trying to keep him attentive with a quicker reaction and more activity in the hind legs. We had some nice trot transitions, staying soft, but a little more oomph to the trot.Lots of changes of bend, some nice relaxed turns around the quarters and a little light-bulb moment for both of us (well, perhaps more for me, to be honest) when asking for quarters-in off the corner as he responded nicely to a slight shift of my weight to the inside and slightly to the inside hind (if that makes sense). As usual, he tells me when I'm getting it right ( I really need to do that more often!)!
