Så vackert skrivet! Jag får lust att rida :)

"Relax and breathe, feel your seatbones and open your legs away from the side of the horse. Feel the state of your horse's attention through the reins. Do not play with his mouth or move your fingers (if you think your fingers and hands are quiet, the horse would inform you otherwise) but only feel his head, neck, spine, and haunches move with his every breath. This wave of movment, by the breath, is his conversation with your body just as your breath is your conversation with his. [Ever wonder why so many cultures have the same word for "spirit" as for "breath"?] Once you can achieve this sensitivity in movement, anything is possible in any gait." Eric Paul Ziegler
