Tip for the Ride ~ Soft Shoulders and Hips

In this month's Tip for the Ride, Alice discusses and demonstrates the power of balance, timing, and feel to develop soft shoulders and free hips in your horse. By using simple exercises to create a soft and willing turn on the forehand, and then a turn on the haunch, you ultimately develop the ability to feel for the feet of the horse through the use of focus, with light aids, and balance.

About Me

My Photo
I was born and raised on ranches in eastern Oregon, with a great supportive family of five brothers and wonderful parents. Horses, thankfully, have always been a part of my life, and now I am realizing how much they are shaping who I am becoming! The past 20 or so years I have pursued the 'art' of horsemanship, in studying, listening, and observing master teachers of old and current, but most importantly trying to be 'with' horses. They are our best teachers if we are only willing to listen and apply.
