Wears headscarf aggressively
So here's a loose idea, for those of us stuck without access to lessons and mainly confined to arena/fields etc
How about we come up with some exercises that are applicable to all levels - maybe they can have added difficulty or complexity for more advanced combinations but be suitable for green horses and novices too?
Be nice to have something to work on together and report back on? share tips and successes, commiserate on difficulties
It looks like lots of people have stopped jumping so I'm mainly thinking flatwork but we could do poles too.
We could do a different one of each every week. Suggestions from anyone please, copy an exercise from a book or something online, or something you've done in a previous lesson?
It came up because 2 of us on the weekend plans thread had been working on corners this week, so something as simple as that could be ideal.
Who's in?
EDIT to add:
for newcomers, the exercise in post 2 below is this week's challenge. DabDab has added some ideas for translating to groupwork, see post 15
Next exercise will be selected on Friday 10th April.
