Understanding your own riding style—while staying open to outside input—can take your training program to the next level. In this session, Danyelle Campbell and Jordon Briggs talk about the importance of knowing what works for you, then thoughtfully applying tips from others to continue progressing without losing your foundation.
Danyelle demonstrates how she backs a horse in a circle to free up the body and move the hip out of the way, explaining how this exercise improves control and responsiveness. Jordon then cruises her 4-year-old through the barrel pattern again, adjusting her angle to the first barrel and applying what they’ve discussed. Together, they show how small refinements and an open mindset can lead to better balance, clearer communication, and more consistent runs.
