Today’s lesson: a taste of piaffe and passage.

And by “a taste,” I mean “two or three steps at a time.” Of passage. The horse took my application for piaffe, considered it, and rejected it.

Which is all fine. The moments where he considered piaffe, and the few steps of passage that we got, were awesome.

Also awesome: the collected trot going into the piaffe and passage attempts, and the trot coming out, which was big, bold, beautiful.

Now to make sure I am doing lots and lots of my super secret ab-killer crunches at the gym, because I have found a whole new reason to find out whether I even have ab muscles improve my marshmallow belly develop a core.
