Listen "FDNH 37: What even is a half halt!?!?!"
Episode Synopsis
Do you keep hearing the term half halt and feel like that is beyond anything you can begin to understand? That half halts are the realm of wizardy and the secrets are kept safe by the masters of classical dressage?
In this training I'm going to talk about:
- why the half halt is so complex and confusing
- why there seems to be so many different explanations, interpretations and ways of riding it
- how to identify the best way you can ride it!
