Alwynne's Theory
My goals are for a horse to be straight, forward, balanced and relaxed, with a rider that is relaxed, balanced and forgiving. This is achieved through exercises and gymnastics that give the horse a job to do that is simple and thoughtful. All this must be given with encouragement and discipline. I am a firm believer that we must wait for the horse to tell us in one way or another, that he is ready to progress.
