What do you think ?

I am teaching my TB the Spanish walk hes picked up the idea well considering I have never done it either , getting on well on the ground not sure how to start him ridden though.

He is a lovely boy :D
Its easy to get them to lift the leg the hard part comes in getting them to actually walk. We are at the stage that we can get him to take a few steps. Just have to keep going slowly till he gets it fully ;-)
Do you have some one helping you ? It helps if you have some one in the saddle walking forward whist you tap each leg. It gets the motion going.

That's the plan I see my trainer next week for two days and I think I will get her to show me how to get him moving he will lift his legs with me sitting on him now.
 
I think he's a very beautiful and incredibly clean horse! :D

However, I'm not keen on his stance in this photo. Just not my cup of tea. He's still gorgeous though. :)
 
Not bad.....
If you put a wee bit more effort in ......one day you could get this.....:p

He needs to learn to relax his jaw and open the poll, rather than going over bent - but clearly massive progression being made - much softer eye than previous pics and yours hands and position are MASSIVELY improved - congrats :D
 
You are aware that the guy on the horse is the professional trainer that Armas engaged to work with the horse - aren't you? I think he's probably always had a pretty good seat and hands...

Nearly spat my drink all over my screen. I love your wit :D

I also love the little girl on the pony thats fab :)

PMSL :D :D Well said :D

Yep...and pretty good everything else too

Someone throw some cold water over me now.

Oh there's a relief! I thought it was just me with a masssssssssive crush on this chap in all Armas' threads :eek:
 
My there are a lot of homones in here tonight! Is it because of the men folk... i didnt realise they were so rare!

Nope - just the one specific one. He is pretty easy on the eye! - and he can ride. What's not to like!
