walk? what's that?

Lovely trot. excellent canter (BOTH directions this time). but walk? didn't want to. she's VERY forward, LOL

The initial trot/canter were showing ourselves off to Gaynor (and i hadn't asked for the canter right, well, didn't know I had, if you see what i mean)

after that some more trot and i decided i ought to go back to walk and do walk/trot transitions...

But we were struggling with this....she wants to moooove.....

and then the flies were really bothering her face...

anyway, did about 20 minutes i suppose!

will try again tomorrow, hopefully with more success..

What progress! Cantering both ways. Well done.

They don't like to walk when the flies are going after them, so that may be the problem. Going faster makes a breeze.

Otherwise, the foward concept is a real plus.

You can walk when you are old! Fantastic that she is so forward!
