🔥HOT TAKE: Focusing on "collection" is not making your horse better. While we support teaching your horse true collection, we believe that the industry needs to do a better job speaking about what collection really means.
It's not a head/neck position, or even just the presence of a rounded back. You can have a horse that is round like a beach ball, but behind the bit unwilling to move forward, and to us - this horse is NOT "collected."
Swipe through for our take, and share with a horse friend who may need to gentle reminder. 😬 And next time the temptation arises to reach for the side reins or another restrictive tool, may we suggest reaching for the Equiband Pro System instead? 💜
