The Journey Continues

Isn't she so good with Dave? And she's so in tune with when I'm really 'riding' v. when I'm not completely engaged. It's almost as if she's saying 'hey - if you aren't paying attention, I'm sure not paying attention!' And begins to ignore leg cues and be generally stubborn but I switch that flip in my head, carry it through by body and she's 'whoaing' with my seat (and words) and turning with seat and leg cues with reins just there as a reinforcement. Still working on bringing back my perfect lounging mare but we're getting there. She does much better when no one is around, I think we both suffer from lack of concentration. =)
