Best advice ever?

[TrasaM]

You certainly aren't. It's usually accompanied by a confused voice saying "I'm not asking for this" and a perturbed shrug as your surroundings whiz past you backwards on either side

Well that was one instruction lost in translation. Navel gazing! How simple could something be. Soooo glad I started this thread.

If yout not straight how can you expect the horse to go straight.
Don't practice doing something wrong over and over again, do something else then ask in a different way.

Don't practice doing something wrong over and over again, do something else then ask in a different way.

And also - do it once, if it was correct do it again to make sure it wasn't a fluke. If that was correct, move on to do something else.

Taken from someones signiture on here:

'forget about the reasons for it not to work and concentrate on the reasons why it will work'

or something along those lines. It has helped me with my jumping!

Stay with the horses movement. He knows how to jump so your job is not to interfere.
