Hi, Cathrine is right. that's the way. I would usggest that you also do lunging sessions where you get him into a long and low position. You may use different aides there. The important part is to be patient. It requires a change of the horses…

Catherine Chamberlain replied to Elandra White's discussion 'Collection problems :('
