This is on of my Lusitano stallions, Donato. On this day we warmed up with free longeing. It was our second day ever free longeing and we had a ton of fun! Something to note: the size of your arena and experience of the horse on the longe line definitely effects how successful this exercise is. Often free longeing helps the horse learn how to pick up the outside shoulder and turn without the influence of the hand, this can be very beneficial to the horse.  With this horse, who is well versed in longeing, our focus was the inside shoulder.
