Während der Demonacht am Freitag den 17. Mai wird Leslie die Teilnehmer und Besucher darauf Vorbereiten das Konzept, die Philosophie, die Techniken und Anwendungen für „Gefühl und Loslassen – Feel and Release“ wie es Leslie Desmond von Bill Dorrance gelehrt wurde.
What will you learn at the Friday night demonstration?
The difference between "pressure and release" and "feel and release", and the circumstances in which a person and their horse would benefit most from the use of either one.
To recognize the basic feel & release requests for any gait, and direction and/or backing up. Maneuvers will be demonstrated in a smooth, slow and accurate manner so the auditors can understand what they are seeing, and the horse is not stressed.
Leslie will show you how to influence changes in posture (poll, mid neck, base of neck, elevation of the shoulders, heart girth, ribs, loin, hips) and to help the horse think clearly and move precisely as he places his feet.
Classes are for advanced riders and trainers only. Open to riders in any Western or English discipline.
Auditors 16 and under are always welcome at Desmond's EU clinics at no charge.
