Oh, and thank you for addressing this kind of horse. There are hundreds of videos on the horse with too much go, very few on the horse with too much whoa
Karen, I learned about your Dressage Naturally classroom through the magnificent trainer and teacher Liesbeth Jorna. You must have worked so hard to get where you are now, and what a gift you have for explaining what you do, with knowledge, love and humour. Thank you. Also on behalf of the horses I play with 😊. They do go, by the way... thanks to this advice. 😁 You inspire.
Thanks for this Karen. My horse recently began stopping out hacking even in company sometimes. He never used to. Have to get off and lead him each time. Hoping to get through it that way but it's turned into quite a bit of walking for me! Not sure if im reinforcing it by getting off. Would be grateful for your thoughts, thanks
It's not something I would be able to give a great answer to over YT but I would pay attention to everything... when, where, how long until., when heading out or heading home, time of day... and what happens if you get back on, and is there any hint of this behavior in other circumstances, etc Check for pain, tack, etc Keep a journal and see if you can start connecting any dots.

Totally describes my half draft horse. And your advice is spot on! I’m inspired!
