I have Multiple Sclerosis, no real proprioceptive sense, and my sensations can change without warning. My riding teachers tell me I have good hands, the horses are light and responsive, with relaxed tongues and lower jaws. I rarely put much pressure into my contact, and I try to make my hand aids by just tweaking my relaxed little finger.

If it shows the hands seperately it might help my teachers to tell me when I start losing contact. I often do not notice right away.
