Sadly, my video was rained off. However, my lesson was not. It was pretty good but unlike recently i didnt feel i made any particular breakthroughs. I have to:
1. keep my right hand soft - almost think of giving with it all the time.
2. forward sorts out the nose curl. Its a forward issue not a rein issue - as Z gets stronger, he will stretch his nose out a little more each time, as in fact he does when he s going forward.
3. he tries very hard not to go forward into the canter transition. this results in a few steps of little crappy canter before he stretches out into a proper one. We are not expecting him to stay round, but he needs to move forward into the canter. Way to do tthis is to only ask for canter from an active trot, and praise lots when we get a good transition. remember to pat on the neck as well as good boy.
I am sure there are other things i forgot....
