Genuinely Smokin giving me his all during our lesson with Betsy Steiner. This excellent little quarter horse has helped so many young riders go into the show ring for the first time and now he and I are on the road to see if he can become an FEI Dressage horse. We LOVE our Gunny Bunny!!

We had a fantastic day the Rolling Ridge for the CTDS Mini show. The cold morning bloomed into a beautiful day and all the horses showed us what pros they were while we got to enjoy a day of showing with friends. So proud of these hard working ladies who really came out and ride their hearts out.

Loops must be symmetrical in shape and length and ridden as a series of curves with no sharp angles that would disrupt your horse’s balance and rhythm.

Loops serve multiple purposes in your training:

✅ An Ideal Exercise for Young Horses - Loops require changes of bend without an extreme change of direction, minimizing the likelihood that your young horse will lose balance or alignment (straightness).

✅ An Ideal Warm-Up Exercise for Advanced Horses - For the same reason as above, loops are an ideal exercise to ride during the warm-up of more advanced horses, because they require gradual changes of bend.

✅ Improve Lateral Suppleness - Loops test and enhance your horse's ability to transition smoothly from one bend to another, promoting lateral (side-to-side) suppleness.

✅ Improve Rider Coordination - Riding loops challenges your coordination because you must smoothly and effectively adjust your aids and body position.

✅ Counter Canter Preparation: Loops can be used in the introduction and training of counter-canter.
