Trainer: Kim Barone
Length: 12:49 Minutes
Kim explains why responsiveness from the horse to the rider’s aids is crucial when training. She begins the session with simply testing her horse’s response time to an average amount of leg. Once it is established that the horse is dull to her average aids through the upward transitions, she then begins to amplify the amount of aid used. Through doing this, the horse becomes much more reactive to her aids without having to ask as assertively.
