Improving weight carriage: Working against stiff hocks and making the hind legs jump under further
With these transitions you get the horse quicker, shorter behind, get his hocks carry a little more weight and a little more under. In this video Monica Theodorescu is training with Liss and her gelding. The aim is to improve the weight carriage of the horse and make the hind legs jump further under the body. You can notice when the work has been good, the hocks become more flexible and as a result the croup goes down.
German Olympian and National coach of the German Equestrian Team, Monica Theodorescu, worked with eight horse-and-rider combinations at the Old Masters Series, hosted at Anke Ott Young’s Avalon Farm in North Salem, New York.
