I love learning something new and by chance I happened (on EE) to discover the shoulder-in entwickeln exercise of Walter Zettl today. You can read all about it here http://www.walterzettl.net/pages/exercise.html and it's a great one to have in the tool kit. I tried it in walk and trot today and it really does open out the shoulder and help the balance. I tried it in conjunction with another shoulder-in exercise I use; shoulder-in down centre line, straighten half pass (same inside bend) straighten shoulder-in opposite rein, straighten, half pass and so on.
Can't wait to ride tomorrow and play some more.

yes i'd read that, of course... in fact i think i'd heard about it before somewhere else..., but since we're no way up for half pass, and not established SI, nver been able to pick up on it...
Sounds like a good one, I think we need a video so that we can see it in action!!! :-) Oh, yes, I am serious!
video this week, promise...I've almost mastered the art of videoing from a fence post, lol, just the editing I'm struggling with. Are there any easy peasy edit systems online??
