I have been trying to improve Lizzie's work in trot. She's not very forward going in the school and works better when being hacked out. Last week on a hack she did the most incredible extended and collected trotting. It was really powerful and I could feel her really pushing those hindquarters under herself.
I would like to try and recreate it in the outdoor school but with very little success.
Can anyone suggest ways as to how I can improve this trotwork in the school and get some impulsion. At the moment she kind of shuffles around very slowly and can be very hard work to get going.
Being an ex-riding school pony I know that the sandschool is not one of her favorite environments.
