>>>> I really enjoy reining, and I admire the heck out of horsemen who can ride and work bridleless. Sounds like a great clinic!
Excuse me - I think our last two e-mails passed in cyberspace, so I think I repeated something by mistake! Yeah, it was a great clinic. Do you remember Lynn Palm's bridleless demonstrations on Rugged Lark a few years ago? I know a lot of people give dressage a bad rap, but the dressage I saw today was certainly inspiring - the kind of dressage that inspired my interest in the sport (art?) almost 20 years ago. It was relatively low-level, but demonstrated and coached by good people - people who weren't using heavy rein contact, who were talking about (and using) relatively mild tack, and aiming for the lightest aids possible.
