But she did the same thing - talked and demoed. She did do a brief exercise toward the end with the STB, encouraging the rider to go up into a hand gallop to get her horse more comfortable with the beats of the gait itself and then gradually ease back into the canter after some time (she thought weeks) hand galloping. Which...I dunno. I'm torn. I think it might be useful, but it also might be kind of a waste of time.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16071037752920853786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8751398798342994168.post-49495961020047462752017-11-13T13:38:23.518-05:002017-11-13T13:38:23.518-05:00Nice!

I rode in Julie Goodnight's canter clinic with Dreamy in 2013 (she has a flat STB canter, so I was excited to have been accepted!) and it was the biggest waste of time ever. We barely cantered and she spent more time talking and showing things on the horse she was riding than paying any attention to us riders. Ahh well. Live and learn for sure.Clover Ledge Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03980479474173795906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8751398798342994168.post-64884973529363215922017-11-13T10:56:03.935-05:002017-11-13T10:56:03.935-05:00ah man, how cool! looking at these exercises make...ah man, how cool! looking at these exercises makes me miss training with one of my former eventing trainers, who himself trained with phillip. challenging work but FUN!emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686949099663199382noreply@blogger.com
