Something to ponder... Whilst reading today came across this passage from Eduard van Brunschot Vega Riding the Peruvian Paso. Horse-riding is unnatural for the horse. Horse-riding is something which we humans invented for our own benefit and pleasure. We should ride our horse in the best biomechanical way, and train the horse in the most constructive way for him to become stronger, refined in his balance and to improve his suppleness. The horse should be strengthened in order to carry the unnatural weight of the rider. If not he will quickly become sore, and compensate or resist. This passage jumped out at me and thought I would share this to raise the consideration of the horse.
