Awesome video of softening. While watching I can imagine riding my horse and anticipating his avoidance. Either a braced shoulder or a hip that wants to swing. I can see just a little life in the inside rein and/or my inside leg to help move and soften, and if his hip swings block it off with the outside leg while maintaining that forward looking posture. Thanks Mr. Cappel, can’t wait to try it on mine!

Every horse should be able to do these movements. A really good explanation.
@@gaylemanion6869 thank you

Common sense dressage! You make it look easy, & I know it takes time to get the feel.
