Interesting indeed. When you say " down anf forward" as in the head freely on his own moving head down AND forward, or ae you saying : the human cues the down and the ' forward" is the "acceleration" (speed)? You explanation DOES say the head/ neck is ALLOWED ( when horse is ready) to go " down and out", but when I watch the video- the horse is CUED to Make his head Down, but I do not see the head/ neck going " out/forward". Am not interestec in a course- but I would LOVE to hear your philosophical thought on HOW the horse achieves Down and Out on its own?
I have one more question please: what happens to the rest of the spine when the head/ neck goes out and low? And how does that effect movement of legs?

Very good explanations and demonstrations! Easy to follow…I enjoy your ability to ride and demonstrate at the same time…a real gift!

Do you massage each rein to get them to go soft or only the inside rein?
I don’t see any Rhythm or suppleness! Not a fan sorry!
