Tip/Quote of the Day # 3084

"After each down transition that was well absorbed by the hindquarters the rider's hand has to yield by uncoiling the wrist so that the front legs can advance by a foot in order to relieve the haunches of their acute flexion, which they cannot maintain, and to reduce the weight that is placed on them. If the rider does not allow that, the horse is forced to take a step backwards with his hind legs in order to keep his balance, and that is a mistake." ~ E.F.Seidler
