@Ranavor I'm glad you asked this question. I feel bad I used a horse that didn't give me many problems, as I know most everyone else experiences things way worse than what Rocky did. When the horses move, turn in circles, get stupid, etc, the key thing is to stay with them, and keep holding the pressure until they stand still, and give to that first extent. Remember, horses learn from the RELEASE of pressure, not the actual pressure itself. The quicker you release, the quicker they learn.
This is so helpful nobody explains it like you.Thanx so much

I really liked the way you explained this. What do you do if the horse moves while you flex him/her?
