Question: I have started my filly under saddle. She is very willing
to learn and I have found it very easy to work with her. I have no experience
training horses so I do alot of reading and watch videos. I have no one
in upstate NY where I live who can help me work on her gaiting. Any info
you could supply would be greatly appreciated. Is there any videos on gaited
horses? Thanks, Sue
From Panelist Annette
Here is the list from the Appendix of my book of videos. I also list
books,
but she asked for videos.
A Balanced Ride - Video by Robin Ratliff. The third in her series of
training tapes. The best illustration of the riding techniques of the
trotty
horse, pacey horse and evenly timed horse I have seen. Robin is a Paso
Fino
trainer, so this tape also has an excellent illustration of the techniques
of the use of the jaquima for all three types, although she does not
show
the use of the serrata for the laterally oriented horse. Available
from
Robin for $50 at Rt.1, Box 25,Lamont FL 32336, 904-584-3234, email
sinpar@nettally.com.
