The Three Ps on The Journey, and much Moore

This weekend at the Jeff Moore clinic we made much headway into learning many things, including developing power in extended gaits, adding or taking away angle and bustle in shoulder in, renver, and traver, climbing uphill halts and transitions, as well as counting flying changes.

We even played at the THREE Ps: piaffe, passage, and pirouette.  The piaffe is pretty good, we have ideas to continue to develop the passage, and the pirouette is in there it is a matter of me learning to ride it in such a way as to allow the horse to accomplish it.

Not yet perfect, but I certainly have a clue about how to school and even continue to develop the pirouette, piaffe, and passage.
