Thank you so much, Marja! Can you explain a bit more about what you mean? Do you mean, use the outside rein more against her neck, a bit like a neckrope?
What a lovely and light-footed horse Maia is :-)! You're a nice team together.
I'm also working on things like in-hand shoulder in and find it very helpful to not only use the inside rein but use both reins as if they were a 'lasso' around the horse's neck and head. The outside rein has the indirect effect of leading the shoulder in and prevents the horse from twisting at the shoulder at the same time, and the inside rein maintains the bend.
