Dressage Pyramid, as if.

[which_chick]

There is a thing called the Dressage Pyramid. You are supposed to do the first things first and then the second things and so forth.

Thing 1. Rhythm
Thing 2. Relaxation
Thing 3. Connection
Thing 4. Impulsion

(there are more things but I don't think we are there yet.)

Rhythm: steady, metronome rhythm. We have this.

Relaxation: Yes. It came with remedial jogging.

Connection. Yes. We did this with contact at the walk, trot, and canter.

Impulsion. Is this Fancy Trot? I think it might be. I will have to inquire.

Also, there should be a freaking handbook for this crap. Or a checklist.
