Maybe she has some Cob in her!

I feel like I need to read again to see if I fully understand what you guys did but I am glad that it helped you! :)Hillaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02884053627728391449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846330497859393721.post-7961428169992319492013-03-22T15:25:41.821-04:002013-03-22T15:25:41.821-04:00I really like how your trainer worked with you to ...I really like how your trainer worked with you to help fix him. Not surprising, I use the same methods with Comrade. Understanding the tools she is giving you and when to use them will come. I agree with Steph's trainer, work each level before moving on. Build a strong foundation.<br />One thing, I don't think you sacrificed lightness to get forward. Until you have forward especially with these Cobs, it is hard to ask for the exercises to get lightness. Being able to move the whole body will make moving individual parts easier.<br />Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13675631291488697042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846330497859393721.post-89398312291368953952013-03-22T13:00:35.427-04:002013-03-22T13:00:35.427-04:00I've been feeling a lot of the same things.

My Oliver sometimes has the same issue to the right, where he wants to overly bend right and pop out his left shoulder, so I feel like I'm counter-bending to keep him straight. <br />Last lesson, my trainer told me "Only work in softness and lightness. If you don't have softness in the walk, don't start leg yielding, or trotting, get soft and then get moving"Stephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12546115210959552767noreply@blogger.com
