To Ride With Loose Rein ..

I have heard and seen a lot of people there are looking to ride with a loose rein and a calm hand.

The rumor  is that this is a difficult thing to achieve, so I thought I wanted to tell about this, because this is actually a relatively easy thing to achieve ... if only it is done the right way from the beginning!

It is hard for people to understand is that a cold blooded horse can be ridden as everyone else!

Although it's a muscular and big horse, we want to manage to show this magnificent horse is easy to ride and it's easiest done if the horse is easy on the bridle!

Here is a picture of Prince Chato, look at the very loose rein and the assembling of his entire body!
He have his back legs under him, the back up, sucks on the bridle and light on the bridle.

This is the function we seek!

To achieve this loose rein and light horse, we ride a lot with legs and lightly with the whip.

First, we assemble the horse, by squeezing the thighs and knees and be lively on bridle, while we ensure that the hindquarters are not flat, using the whip a bit and move our lower-legs slightly back and prod, we make sure the horse is keep working in the hind legs and quarters! 

When we feel that the horse is 'uphill' and have legs underneath them, as you can see Lord Korpus is here! We easily loosen the rein, just in 30 seconds ... And after we continue where we left off to assemble the horse, and give a loose rein for 30 seconds. 

Slowly in time, we can give a loose rein and the horse will not even be noticed, cause we continue to ride for the legs, uphill with the hind legs and quarters underneath the horse!

I hope it can help all those looking for a horse can be ridden on loose rein and light hand!
