You'll see a round penning demonstration with a horse who DOESN'T already know it. You can see him learn in real time. It's not to wear him down! See the desirable changes it can make in your horse. Plus... We also plan to cover: Getting a good start to your ride - getting your horse to stand still at a mounting block. And some of those "mounting blocks" in the woods have roots! So we'll learn how to get the horse to move next to what you want to climb on and how to stand quietly till you get on. Trouble free worming - why get in a wrestling match with your horse (and sometimes he wins, right?) when he can learn to take worming graciously? College Level Leading - the key to a polite horse. If you are being run over or dragged around while trying to lead your horse, this will show how you can teach him to lead politely, WITHOUT pulling on you.
