It turns out that lunging is A LOT simpler than you might think it is.
Watch the video below to learn exactly how you can go about lunging a horse for the first time:
You do not need your own horse to do this! Ask to lunge a school horse at the barn that you ride at. School horses are typically lunged anyways as part of their routine so you could offer to help out. It will take you a little bit to get the hang of it but soon you’ll be a pro.
Stay tuned because tomorrow, we’ll be talking about how to deal with a common issue that comes up when you first start doing groundwork: how to get a horse out of your space.
Love,
Martina
