Catalina

Hello Readers

Catalina my  4  year old is back to work.
She has been really good and after 2 months off to heal her injury she didn't   forget a thing.
the most wonderful thing is she loves to go to the ring and is so willing and eager to work.
This make me really happy.
She needs to build a lot of muscle and strength this winter and that is my goal, however keep in mind with these young horses the most important thing is that they learn to be aware of their body and learn to be obedient and learn in their mind what is happening .
Strength is huge but knowledge for the young horse is also very important.
when training your young horse remember length and repetition is never as important as correct form. It's important that they mentally understand what is happening and one must always keep the boundaries of manners at the forefront.

Key to remember. the "school master" and Grand Prix Horse that is competitive always have something in common. They know the "rules" and willingly except them.  In the end you want  your horse to fully understand their "job" and really like their job. this is what makes a great competition horse as well as a great school master.

Please feel free to challenge me with your questions and interests in what you want to learn.
