0:05in this brief video clip we have a second level horse
0:08working on the flying thing just so she can move up to third level
0:11like most horses when he starts he has a little bit of trouble coordinating all
0:15four legs at once
0:17and the specific buying change issue we're dealing with today is from the
0:21left lead to the right the change
0:22his first tends to change clean behind and then late in front
0:26this comes from the fact that this first ones to lean on the right shoulder be
0:30heavy on the right train
0:31and not respected writers right leg therefore causing her to have a little
0:35trouble getting true suppleness on that right side
0:37and getting him to balance himself upright in a place that he can do a
0:41clean fine change
0:42the first of the writer just pick up the left a counter canter
0:45attempt to fly in change to the right so we can see the issue we're dealing with
0:48here she asked for the change
0:52actually changes clean behind but never completes the flying change with the
0:55front leg
0:55so now he's out a balance she's gotta bring them back on a circle here
0:59get him back with her pretty common problem for a green her starting changes
1:04not a big deal she's gonna bring him back to the walk than ready to discuss
1:09the issue estar exercise
1:10and having the writer start by picking up correctly counter canter on a
1:1620-meter circle
1:17she's holding the weapon her right hand so she can gently tap them on the right
1:20shoulder
1:21encouraging him to lead your of that right side and take that way of it his
1:25right front leg
1:26therefore making him more balance so that is not meaning in around the corner
1:29like a motorcycle
1:30she can tell it gets more balance pretty fine remove that shoulder out
1:34the left becomes lighter and softer on the right train their when she feels a
1:37couple good steps and that softer connection the bright side she walks in
1:41praises him
1:42this preparation and this perspective that right leg
1:45and the suppleness on the right train is the most important before she ever ask
1:49for a change
1:49never asked for the change the moment when you feel the horses fighting in the
1:53connection are you feel there is tension or nervousness
1:55when she feels he gets here does good steps and he gets a walk break
2:02let her walk around for a minute on a loose rein let him relax
2:06think about that take the pressure off so the in everything so the changes are
2:09stressful situation
2:11after she's let him have a momentary break that walk to relax
2:16she picks up the contact again and back to that left three counter canter on
2:19that twenty meter circle to the right
2:21but she's looking for is at suppleness on the right side
2:27that reflection through the poll the neck in the shoulders to the right
2:30so that we know is not leaning through that right side and as she does she also
2:35I think about the canner quality
2:37he's getting here a little bit slow when the Cantor is losing a little jump an
2:42implosion so she's gonna try to pretend I'm a little with that right leg so that
2:45keep setting gauge met behind gets a little bit low here and strong out
2:49not why he has a little break there in a little mistake
2:52not a big deal she continues to make a step of the right leg that's the most
2:55important thing you stick with what you were asking
2:58now he's giving them a couple little caps behind here little match with the
3:01leg
3:02saying let's put a little more ballots in the scanner so we have a little more
3:05airtime in the moment at the change now that's better bounce in the canner
3:08and then a good change he had the energy and the implosion behind their
3:13in order to do a cracked flying change and she had him stepping enough of her
3:17right leg he was soft and not right
3:18rain and not dying down to the right infanticide horses just starting this
3:23fine changes that's enough for him today
3:25a little bit a counter canter a couple changes attempting
3:29he gave us a good one there at the end analogous to go home to his stall in
3:32think about it be proud of the work you did today you always want to keep it
3:36changes a happy thing
3:37never making them feel stressed or worried in them and you can tell he's
3:41quite proud to work to get there
