Teaching Pantherwalk

Описание: PantherWalk is one of the most fun and useful exercises for both horse and human.
No horse needs to do this; no human needs to train this.
But the benefits and side-effects are powerful, and work with almost ANY horse -- from the fire-breathing dragon to the "energy saver."
ANYBODY can train this. You don't need expert horse skills, just a willingness to explore and have fun.

Disclaimer: we use +R / positive-reinforcement with a marker signal (for me, it's a clicker) to teach this. If you’re new to training with food, this is NOT the exercise to start with. Although we often DO teach it to horses very early in their training/re-training/re-hab, it can be quite frustrating and stressful for the horse. If the horse is still having ANY food anxiety, that should be worked on FIRST.

As we are in "mud season" right now, I'm reminded how much I love PantherWalk, because it's one of the few HARD, high-effort, high-work exercises that we can do SAFELY when the ground is too slippery (or the space too small) for higher speed.
