Tricks or liberty?

[ALEXCOSSIE]

Hey guys so after finding out recently that I’m pregnant I’ve had to promise to watch what I’m doing riding and accept that I may have to stop. I was wondering if any of you lovely people can give us some training ideas for on the ground. She’s a Young’s fizzy sports pony who definitely needs to be kept busy I have someone who can ride for me if it comes to that point but I’d love to take the opertunity to teach her some useful skills or tricks. I can’t wait to hear you guys ideas !

I like a bit of trick training, desensitisation and general groundwork, which I often end up doing at liberty, but I'm not a huge fan of running around with loose horses. I do train them loose to move responsively and sensibly around me, but I tend to discourage speed / silliness for obvious reasons.
