oh so misunderstood!to the detriment ...Hi Kerrin! <br /><br />oh so misunderstood!to the detriment of the rider's sanity and of course the poor horse. i've been helping quite a few of my friends (the ones who are at the end of L3)with this. omg! how many of us have had tears... its one thing to "get the concept" and another to be able to bridge the gap into manifesting the result. <br /><br />i kept asking linda: "what did you say??? that made such a huge difference????" her answer was: "make it a game". could it really be just that????<br /><br />on the rfdtv show last night linda was talking about putting things into simple terms that seem so obvious once she mills them out. ai yi yi. even after all these years of being a linda student, this one blew my mind.Emma Kline of Northwood Farmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07380108415311300571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5062527148841973372.post-18566388969338655832010-07-02T12:20:27.540-07:002010-07-02T12:20:27.540-07:00Great to see a student so committed to Finesse rid...Great to see a student so committed to Finesse riding... now that the mental and emotional fitness are beginning to happen, you can focus on the physical aspect, and of course developing your understanding of Finesse! <br /><br />I really like it that you've noticed that physical Finesse STARTS from zone 4, and not the other way around. I think this concept is often misunderstood, with many riders thinking that finesse/dressage riding starts from 'putting the horse in an outline' ie zones 1 and 2. <br /><br />Kerrin Koetsier<br />Parelli CentralKerrin Koetsierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17244535646520343563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5062527148841973372.post-20925979328979668832010-06-17T07:13:28.949-07:002010-06-17T07:13:28.949-07:00Isn't that cool?
