Clinic on Danny Day 1 - Canter Work (E)

12/9/2006 - First day of two. Clinic with Tom Noone on my Trakehner gelding, Danny. We are schooling 2nd level.

Lot of different pieces of the canter work. I will describe in parts.

1st Part - Canter from the walk. He isn't always perfect, but he is much more consistent. He really uses himself, steps under and picks up his shoulders.

2nd Part - Yeah there was some mssy stuff on my part. First ignore my elbow at point. They are better, but every once in a while just a bit too wide. He really tries on the circle, works hard to use those hind leg. That loop was pure mess on my part. I corrected it in the next one though. He broke in the circle, got a bit hard for him, but he went back to it. I laughed when he called though, (yes that was him) goofball.

3rd Part - Canter to walk, still working on it. He is getting better. He says it is a lot of work to collect on that small circle.

4th Part - Canter from the walk other direction.

5th Part - Canter from the walk then transition back to the walk.

Hm must have forgot to put the other counter-canter loop in going the other way. That was good though.

It's very kind of you not just to share these clips but to let us have the benefit of your instructor too.
