I love this series of training clinic videos from Tim Stockdale and learned a lot from them. He is such a clear and outstanding teacher. And he makes it look so easy.
There are four in all and I wasn't sure if I should post them separately, so I am just posting the page they are on and you can scroll down to the centre to watch them.
I think he has a wealth of practical knowledge and hopefully everyone will get as much out his ideas as I did.:)

You are so lucky! I follow his training blog and he talks about something called "The Fives", which I use all the time. It has made a huge difference with my horse. Did he talk about it at the clinic?
For example five strides canter, five walk, five canter. Five strides forward in trot, five back, and so on. It has made me much more aware of my horse's rhythm and how I am riding.
 
My daughters friend who she used to ride dressage on her horse, has just bought over from SA a top SJ.
When Tim found out she had got him he called her up to ask if he could train her!!!
Dawn said she has never ridden a horse so light in the hand
He must be so good if Tim made the offer.
