Christine introduces Luna and explains the foundational principles of directional yields, applying them to obstacle training as preparation for trail riding. The session focuses on how to effectively communicate with your horse using obstacles that simulate real-world trail challenges.
This session delves into training your horse to navigate narrow spaces, highlighting the importance of managing claustrophobia and ensuring your horse remains calm and responsive even in tight situations. Christine guides Luna through exercises that simulate the challenges of narrow trails and tight spaces.
Christine and Luna tackle obstacles that test the horse’s confidence with uneven surfaces, such as bridges. This session is crucial for horses that may encounter varied terrain on trail rides. The focus is on helping the horse find relaxation and trust in unfamiliar footing.
This session addresses a horse's reaction to objects above and around them, simulating trail conditions where branches or overhead obstacles might be present. Christine uses the "car wash" obstacle to build Luna's confidence with things that move or touch her from above, ensuring she stays calm and focused.
Christine challenges Luna with a complex obstacle that combines step-up and step-down movements, changes in footing, and a tunnel effect. This session focuses on building trust and ensuring your horse can handle multiple challenges in sequence, just as they would on a trail ride.
