Coaching connection.Why it is good for the horse and the rider?
Connection is one of the most challenging things to teach yet one of the most important.This connection is that of the horse”s hind-end energy,how that energy is received (contact),how the rider reacts to the energy (seat aids),and how the rider molds that energy into developing a more athletic,agile horse.The concept of connection affects all the areas of the pyramid of training:rhythm,looseness,contact,impulsion,straightness and collection.Connection will have the most effect on a student”s riding and a horse”s longevity and development.It is vital for serious riders to know something of the muscle structure of the horse to evaluate the horse”s development of self-carriage,the goal of connection.These areas will be discussed.
