In this video, the horse I’m working with has a tendency to stiffen the inside neck and fall on the inside shoulder thereby throwing his haunches to the outside of the circle. This is a common problem when riding or training horses.
As a solution I ask the horse to bend and step away from the inside rein which I’m communicating by pushing slightly in the middle of his neck on the inside. This causes the inside shoulder to stand back up, and rotate back so that the inside hind leg can step forwards instead of sideways, thereby catching the weight of the horse and unloading the inside front leg/shoulder.
