We have recently purchased Ora back, she is being reschooled and available for purchase. Ora is seven this year and has some great training. She can be ridden bridleless, trail rides, swims, has been trailered and ridden many places, does obstacles with no problems, great liberty work, lays down at liberty and is working nicely on suppeling and collection.
Picts coming soon!

January 31st, 2009Ora: Charro x Madonna, 8 years old this year. Lynn is riding her here...Ora has been previously ridden in a very forward hunt-like seat, so Ora has adapted her weight on the forehand and even going behind the vertical, breaking in her neck instead of a smooth flow (basically false collection). In order to fix that, we have to go back and get her walk/trot/canter consistant where she is comfortable (which is not being correct), then slowly bring her center of gravity where it needs to be and using herself instead of evading. This picts show her at least reaching forward in her stride, even though her neck is bent and still kind of pulled into her shoulder a little defensive. The other positive is she is begining to use her abdominal muscles too, you can see it some in the canter pict and slightly in the trot one.
