Live from Glenden & Gray Dressage @ SunnyField Farm in Bedford , NY!!
Spot Quiz (asked of rider during her clinic): How many vertebrae under your saddle?
Day 1 was perfect weather and great results. Saw training specific to use of corners, maneuvering corners, dividing a circle into quadrants, getting on-the-bit, getting your horses attention vs. distractions, getting your pony OFF the ground, “surrounding your pony with the aids”.
Mr. Williams was very interactive. Each session was uninterrupted from distractions, other than replacing microphone batteries, and non-stop. Explanations of “you asked your pony to do that so he did” to “down, down, down, that's ok, if you can touch your pinkies then your hands are in a position to surround your pony with aids.”
The after-the-day dinner included mandatory questions from all from fav experience “Representing
USA at World Cup” to “so we trail rode 250 miles home without GPS” when Mr. Williams was 13. He and Lendon happen to have been at activities together way back then!!
Will post photos when home on real connection.
