Respecting Your Personal Space

Jay demonstrates how he maintains his personal space. He establishes respect for that all-important space by causing lateral movement away from him whenever the horse gets to close. Jay uses a whip as an extension of his arm as he gently maintains his space while working closely with the horse to disengage the hindquarters and control the horse's movement. He reminds us that a horse's logic is repetition and that repetition forms a habit that we call training.
