Nancy Later guides us through a session on creating balance in your horse and shifting them off the forehand. She covers the use of the leg in the walk and how to use it to encourage him to be more forward and almost trot.

She emphasizes that they start with a good walk and keep it in the leg yield, with the same obedience off of both legs.
