Did ground work. Disengaging her hind end and learning to move her front end when asked. Spent about an hour and a half working on this. She is was a little resistant at first, but eventually decided that she could get along with me.
Everything you do on the ground will translate to something you do in the saddle. As I get older, my Dad gets smarter! Groundwork is the basic foundation in starting a horse. If you can't do it on the ground, you surely will not be able to do it in the saddle.
