I have a 5 yo TB mare (see below)
I would love to get out doing some dressage but I guess I need some advice on what to do first.
Her canter needs work and I really need help with this (hard to explain, I have a lesson at the weekend so Ill try and film then) but she falls out through the outside shoulder and i struggle to keep her on a circle so I couldnt really take her and do a test (or could I?)
She gets times in canter, that she doesnt ste through enough and loses her footing/balance and goes disunited, what could be causing this and how can I solve it?
She is very much between my hand and leg in trot but if-y in walk as she gets a little tense when I collect the walk.
I guess what I am asking for is any tips/tricks/exercise suggestions from those who have schooled TB's and can help me out.
Thanks
Note - I have been riding with my lower leg underneath me a lot more in hope that this would help :S
