How could I forget the new advanced moves that she's patented!!!!
Now first a disclaimer ... these are advanced moves and shouldn't be attempted unless your horse is ready for them and you are qualified to teach them. No responsibility will be taken for any hurties or ouchies caused by attempting these moves.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

EAT GRASS to TROT transition
One fluid movement from eating the grass to trot. There should be no walk steps inbetween. The frame should be maintained. The horse should not lose balance and fall on their nose
.
EATING GRASS TROT
An advanced version of the free trot on a long rein. The horse should maintain impulsion, stretch down long and low and should eat a mouthful of grass at each stride. They should not lift their heads between each mouthful and should not lose their balance and fall on their nose
.
MUNCHING FROM THE HEDGE LATERALS
Whilst walking or trotting forwards with purpose the horse should bend through the body, take a mouthful of hedge and then return to walking/trotting straight. This movement should be fluid with no hesitation throughout the bend.

Saff is a work in progress for these highly advanced movements but she was giving them a damn good go yesterday :)
