Tuesday with Alie and Keystone

  1. Foot falls at the walk: yes cue at 2 to cue HQ at 3.
  2. Steady hands are harder at the trot and I learned to keep elbow to bit line--connected energy--when my hands are too high I loose connection.
  3. Coming up from stretching--slide one hand etc
  4. Outside rein--yes away from the neck
  5. Yes energy first, then outside rein then inside rein
  6. If Key leans on the bit--lift 2 hands and urge forward with ??leg (which leg//outside??)
  7. trot urge on same
  8. turns: cue with inside rein and use outside leg to go forward
Lots of improvement today--I was very excited and pleased!!
