This episode is a recording from the CT Club, where I had a great conversation with Hannah Weston, followed by a Q&A for our active members.
We talk about how to set up those very first trot transitions from the saddle, and what we each focus on to make it work. A lot of it comes back to:
Checking that the trot is well-prepared from the ground
Re-training cues if you’ve previously relied on pressure and struggled with motivation
Using the environment to help build duration and decide how long we can stay in trot
It’s also important to remember that stopping and reinforcing frequently is physically demanding for our horses, and something we need to consider carefully in the training process.
