Work that body

IN THIS, THE final part of our polework series, Sammy has designed a grid which brings together everything you’ve done so far.

It’s a multi-purpose schooling session that’s ideal if you’re short on time. Because of the level of variation, it’s fun for your horse, too, and you may find that he’s more forward going and switched on than usual.
