Vanessa Way talks about working with Charlotte Dujardin and Carl Hester:
“Charlotte used to correct me because she used to say if I didn’t move my fingers she would chop them off. The thing is with your hand, it’s the communication. The horse’s mouth is like your own. I believe if you have a numb hand you have a numb horse. You want a chewy, light feeling rather than taking a hold. We don’t ride with strength, we don’t ride with hardness. It’s like taking a two-year-old child for a walk. It’s a nice feeling.”

"To maintain your balance, imagine that your upper body is like a broomstick and your horse is a hand trying to balance it. If your body (the broomstick) starts to tip, your hand (horse) will automatically move underneath to keep it up. You cannot lean right and expect your horse to go left." — Laura Tomlinson

If you want to ride well it is important to have an understanding of horse biomechanics but what about rider biomechanics? This is essential knowledge in order to know how to get the horse to do what you ask. #DynamicStretching

How To Stretch Your Horse Over The Topline

Here are the aids to develop a functional (or effective) stretch over the top line. You can stretch at any gait assuming that the horse doesn’t just speed up and “run away”.

From the National Youth Board: This April we are excited to highlight Dressage as our Discipline of the Month!

Dressage and flat work skills help to balance and strengthen not only your horse, but your partnership with your horse as well. These skills are the foundation of every great equine pair. We encourage you to step out of your comfort zone and try your hand at Dressage Rally this year!

What are your 2021 dressage goals?

"To keep from slumping or slouching while riding, imagine that you have an open parachute strapped to your back. The pull of the air into the parachute keeps your shoulder blades together and tall. This imagery will help you maintain your upper-body position as your horse moves underneath you." — Janie Rentz

The Action Coalition for Equestrians provided the below flyer to show the impact of the equestrian lifestyle on the economy and land use. California is number two in the Nation in Horse Ownership. Equestrians buy locally; hay, feed, horse trailers, land, board, tack, trucks, fencing, barns, all horse workers, etc. All of these things affect the Mounted Patrol units at our parks and the use of our trails.

We took 3 ouf our grandchildren for their first riding lesson on Saturday and WOW, talk about being impressed! Went from 3 kids ages 6,7 and 11 being pretty nervous to wanting to go back as soon as possible! They loved the experience.

My granddaughter, Caroline, is taking weekly lessons at MB, and is interested in possibly working at the barn over the summer. Another rider's mother told me it's possible for the kids to work and help out with the summer camps. Could someone give me more information on that, and how I might be able to get Caroline involved? Thank you!
