Back In the Bit

After focusing on the basics for the last couple of months I decided it was time to put the bit back in and see what I had. Wow is all I can say. Coaster is actually submitting to the bit and moving through his back. I need to find a new dressage saddle as mine really doesn't fit him...oh well, if only money grew on trees. Since Coaster and I are both out of shape for serious dressage work, I'm going to take it slow - get it right on the walk, then get it right on the walk/trot transition then worry about the trot and so on. I just need to focus on getting my leg as tight as it needs to be - I'm so out of shape it isn't even funny.
