eligible for registration with IALHA

14.3 hh

Alfa is just starting her ridden education, she grew up as a range horse.

Incredible temperament - smart, calm, expressive, she has been such a treat to start under saddle.

Walk, trot, canter. Safe and calm.

Schooling lateral work in walk and trot - shoulder in, travers, renvers, half pass.

Canter is quite green but it's coming along.

* In the first year under saddle, the horse's neck is left as free as possible - to find her balance in the exercises.

We believe in the wisdom of nature -

let the horses move the way they do at liberty.

Priority is on developing willingness to work and vertical balance (no overloading of the front legs). The work is very precise and slow, the horse learns to follow the rider's seat under all circumstances.

I'm 5'9" and this mare does not feel too small for me. She's stocky and powerful. Incredibly easy to sit, she's smooth and floaty. As she is finding her balance, we explore more expressive gaits. This horse will turn some heads!

Barefoot, lives outside in a herd.
