So when he gets too far in front; I put my hand on his behind, and he stops. Today; I would stop him, and put his head down, everytime he got to far ahead. He always has his head up, and he very caucious. so it worked pretty good. Sometimes I march with him, to slow him down.It works when I give him a tap on the halter with the beat. I have been watching your videos. I just learned alot about your lessons. I'm so happy I found you. Thankyou so much. My horse likes to walk in front of me.

WHR clinic in Holland. Organised by Monique with Julia and Stina. It appeared that I had been practicing WHR 1 for years already without knowing it being one of the WHRs. It is much nicer to do things consciously. I was also pleasantly surprised to hear Stina and Julia tell about the überstreichen. Actually I have been teaching and coaching my dressage students for years how to practice the überstreichen. That it is a perfect way to check if your horse goes with sufficient self-carriage. During the period I competed (dressage up to Prix St. Georges/Intermediaire II) in the '80s and '90s, we very often had German dressage tests to ride. In some of these tests while showing for example a medium canter the rider had to perform überstreichen so the judge could see a horse not needing the rider's hand/rein support in the extension. I have started reading the mails on the different subjects of the different people and read your replies with interest. Thank you very much for the work you have been doing for so long. I wish you many more years. It is very nice to share experiences. And I feel definitely inspired. I hope to be able to take part in the follow up clinic(s)which Monique and Julia (perhaps Stina as well) are planning for next year. First I shall be visiting Klaus Ferdinand Hempfling end Sept this year. Another inspiring horseperson. Thank you again and so long for now.

I am to that point with mine. She becomes a pest and I have pushed her away but she just comes right back. I just don't know what to do next. I am still working on the second UE. Going to her right or clockwise in the circle she wants to cut me off by crossing behind or in front of me to the inside. She also wants to get too close and moves in on me from the rear. She seems to be getting better with this but I could use some advice on how to remedy this and what to do next with the WHR rudeness. Also I would like to get in on your next online training courses will be as I would like to try to be a part of them too. Your method of training has been so advantageous over the last three weeks. I started watching her when she eats and her eyes are almost always on me and she raises her head every so often to look directly at me. Then she will walk over to me, nuzzle me then go back to eating her hay. This is so beautiful and so rewarding. I want to learn your way of training so I can train other horses like you. I live in Georgia and there is no one here that trains the way you do. Any info you could send me would be a great help and greatly appreciated. I look forward to hearing from you for the questions listed above as well as your training course. Thank you. Dear Carolyn;

We've had back-to-back blizzards in Central Maryland. If the snow ever melts, I will be so excited to try these exercises. I can't wait for spring. Thank you for all that you do.

Of the 29 horses, 20 contracted strangles to some degree or the other. Care to keep the disease confined has, so far as I know, been very successful. But with the bitter weather, this has been exhausting work. Beth and Cookie, in Virginia Hi Carolyn,
