Basic Groundwork Topics within Liberty Lunging u0026 Roundpenning

This is kinda old footage that I never got around to editing, I figured maybe someone could get some use out of this! This was a session that I did with Roulette back in October where I really tried to focus on my body language with her. There's four different parts to this, but it's not a "how to" on each topic if that makes sense... I explain more about subdivisions within each big topic.

Roundpenning:
increasing speed
how to start holding the canter (for a horse that has trouble cantering in the roundpen or on the line, I explain a little on how I encourage one to told the canter for longer and how important rewarding stride by stride in the beginning can make your horse understand faster)
drawing in vs ending on the rail

Lunging:
yielding hindquarters
getting soft on the rope
sequencing cues

Liberty:
(This was actually Roulette's first session at liberty!)
starting to spiral in to start a circle
when your horse veers off
every horse needs a different intensity

Mark Training (briefly):
(I almost took this section out, but this is good to show you what to do when your horse is either a little rusty on mark training, or they just keep stepping around the mark when they're first learning)
rest and draw from the mark
importance of getting on from the side you ask

This video seems a little scattered but covering a couple topics/specifics within each giant topic may be a little helpful! Editing this also made me realize how much I miss Roulette :(
