Preview: Corey Cushing: How To Teach A Horse To Stop

The stop is one of the most important things we can ask from a horse says Corey. In this first two part video series with Corey, you will learn:
* Why the stop is about accepting your hands and getting them to shuffle their feet behind
* Yes, you want them soft but soft is not about having their chin on their chest
* Why you have to be pushing forward to teach the stop
* Not to worry if they are a little rude in the face in the beginning
* Why you don’t stop a horse and then ride forward again
* Corey demonstrates what drills he does to help a horse stop
* Why a horse may be stopping on his front end
* Why collection is about controlling the body, not bend in the neck
