We have seen that horses can use their heads and necks normally and for their balance and vision in rack / tolt.
Why, with the Icelandic Horse, is he seen, all over the world, fighting the bit? http://iceryder.net/videofightingbitworldwide.html What is it about this style of riding that allows people to accept fighting the bit as normal, part of the gait? Why would we bring in trainers who ride like this, to teach us to ride the same way? The cycle has to be broken at some point.... for the benefit of the horse. Who will put their ego aside and put the horse first? Judy http://iceryder.net http://clickryder.com
