In the third part of the webinar series “Natural asymmetry and training for straightness” we will talk about the assessment of asymmetry in motion and discuss useful criteria for analysis.
- Which problems and challenges in movement are the result of crookedness?
- Why does my horse not like to move on one hand?
- Why does my circle keep getting too big or too small?
- Why is the horse not giving to one rein?
- Why does he start the wrong canter to one side or try to avoid the canter on this side at all?
About the webinar series:
Understanding the natural asymmetry of the horse is essential to educating our horse correctly, so as to keep it sound and balanced until old age. Crookedness affects aids and training progress, as well as correct performance of exercises. Natural asymmetry can cause many problems such as muscle tensions, tendon problems, problems with rhythm, lameness, development of compensation muscles, and joint diseases.
Do you enjoy riding your horse to one side, but to the other, everything feels wrong? Do exercises work on one hand but are difficult to the other? Do you wish to help your horse to more straightness with your seat? Would you like to know how to balance your horse with side movements? Do you wonder if you should ride your horse forward down or not? Then join this webinar series and use this year to dive deeply into the horse’s crookedness and understanding true straightness.
