Excercise to develop Cadence in your horse

 Hello Everyone!

  We have an excellent training video for you today. A nice finished horse always rides with cadence. He does not get faster or slower in any gait unless he is asked. I like to put my horse into a trot and I like her to go into the trot softly and just stay at that speed until I ask for something else. It is alot of work to ask a horse to trot and constantly having to ask to slow down or speed up. This is a great excersice that we use at the ranch in our training program. We want the horse to find the speed that is relaxed and comfortable for them to hold ...to find their cadence.

  So click on the video link above the picture. The video is about 4 minutes long. It is a great training tip!

   We are on our way to Road to the Horse!. Hopefully we will bring back some great training from this trip!

 

   WE WILL BE SPONSORING A GROUND TRAINING SEMINAR
