Last week we got to have a couple of sessions with Linda Parelli on the "Game of Contact". It was one of those concepts that I have heard a lot of before but never truly understood the process or the purpose. Linda shared with us how she came up with the Game of Contact then we studied it with her before riding. Once we got to the riding part Linda was able to help all of us in such an amazing way. I was amazed just how much it helped me and my horse with Finesse. My horse Fuego has only been started for about a year and I didn't have enough savvy to start picking up contact with out messing something up. After we experimented with it for a while Fuego figured out what to do with the contact and we are making so much progress in Finesse now.
We started final testing yesterday. It is sad that this is the last week of our Externship.We have made a lot of new friends, have developed into a fantastic team and have grown so much in every way. It will be exciting to see what will happen next in all of our journeys.
And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28
