Day 2 Session 2 - Flat Warm-up | Anne...
They school shoulder-in while maintaining a forward walk and trot. Anne reminds the riders to make sure the horses' haunches stay on the track so that they don't drift in too much. Next they school shoulder-out. These exercises help the horse respond to the rider as well as build strength.
