Join us for Friday Night Fun: Lateral Work 101 on March 27th at 6:30 pm for a thoughtful, off-horse deep dive into one of the most important—and often misunderstood—components of correct training 🍷
Over wine, non-spirited beverages, and snacks, Macki will break down what lateral movements are truly asking of the horse, including the correct aids, what each exercise is strengthening and mobilizing, and how to recognize engagement versus disengagement. We’ll also discuss the complexity level of different lateral exercises, helping you understand when an exercise is appropriate, how to layer difficulty thoughtfully, and how lateral work fits into a progressive, sound training plan. This class is perfect for riders who want more clarity, better feel, and a deeper understanding of how lateral work supports balance, strength, and long-term performance. 🍷🐴
