Wisdom Wednesday

We often hear the term that the rider and horse should be as ONE. But very few people truely understand what this actually means. While on FaceBook I found the most brilliant artwork on the Cowboy Dressage page, which depicts exactly how we and the horse become ONE while riding them. While riding the horse we have to communicate in a way that the horse understands and we have to use our body to get the horse to move theirs. We have to work in unison. This artwork shows how our body influences the horse’s body and how we become ONE with our horse. Obviously there is a lot of training that goes in to creating a horse and rider that works like this but this is the end goal no matter the discipline.
