Chapter 6

Practice: The Release Is the Lesson

Two practices for the barn, two for the office or home. Write one line after each: what improved today was.

20 minPracticeBarn and office

The same work in two rooms. If you have no horse, watch horses at a fence or at a lesson; seeing is practice too. Do the office practices this week, with real people, at low volume.

Barn: One second release

HowAsk for a soft give to the lead. Release within one second of the smallest try. Ten reps each side.

You've got it whenA lighter answer by the last rep than the first.

Office: Name the try today

HowPick three tries you want to see (a discovery question, an honest I don't know, an unasked follow up). Name each one the same day you see it.

You've got it whenThree acknowledgements delivered the same day.

Office: Five words first

HowOpen your next three reviews with what is right before what to fix.

You've got it whenThe fix landed without a brace.

Home: Count your releases

HowFor one day, count how often you acknowledge a try at home.

You've got it whenA number, and a higher one tomorrow.

Safety

Equine activities are inherently dangerous. This course does not replace hands-on instruction from a qualified professional. You work with horses at your own risk.
