Last night we had a super discussion about building topline, Germán had some really interesting points to make and we had some great questions from the audience about the relationship between suppleness and topline.
We also have a super fun segment that you need to listen in for! In Strides my students made a thread discussing their favorite Germán phrases, so we had a great chat with him explaining them!

Well it has been a week! It's kind of ironic that we had a groundwork webinar on Sunday and had planned to talk about groundwork today, because this week a fire broke out right behind our barn and we had to quickly load the horses and get them out.
It's so important that you do your groundwork and your horse loads on a good day, because trailer loading is just ground manners on a more refined level.
It just goes to show how important groundwork is and that your horse is able to load quickly when literally every second counts!

I loved watching everyone's videos, seeing everyone's arenas, their horses, there was so much variety! So many different types and breeds and sizes. And I could see how much everyone really loved their horses.
