It's amazing how aware of any movement of the rein hand you become. I devised it for a student years ago who had a problem with dropping her left hand all the time, it really taught her to be aware of the problem because until you accept there is a problem it's impossible to address it. I've since used it on myself with good results. At the moment my hands distress me, they used to be much more *alive* but with so much time off I'm relearning everything, argghhtrudihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06741901033691017922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4941114342119019309.post-31496057002524166922009-01-02T23:50:00.000+01:002009-01-02T23:50:00.000+01:00oh, and you've taken off the word thing....I meant...oh, and you've taken off the word thing....<BR/><BR/>I meant to ask, how's the arena riding? i take it it's finished!Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02888698683201580237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4941114342119019309.post-11846260563632670412009-01-02T23:49:00.000+01:002009-01-02T23:49:00.000+01:00how does that work with the hand, Trudi, I'm not q...how does that work with the hand, Trudi, I'm not quite sure I follow you?
