March 2010 Stacy and her new horse Ben.
Like a lot of us, Stacy and Ben are just getting going after a winter in which consistent riding had been all but impossible; in this short clip they work on elasticizing the trot with transitions within the gait, pelvic positioning for more effective use of the seat, and using shoulder fore to bring a horse prone to curling—as Ben is, especially when he's a little tired near the end of a session—up in front.
