Using an aid to create clear communication between rider and horse. “Feeling a fly.” Your horse can feel a fly land on them- they can feel every shift, movement and breath you take. If they are "ignoring" your aids, there is a lack of clarity between what you think you are offering and what your horse is "receiving."
Reason- Assessing what your horse is currently offering you
Purpose-What you would like to change
Energy-Offering an appropriate physical pressure of aid to get desired result
Reward-Acknowledging the “try” from your horse and allowing him a moment of “let down”
The ideal goal is to help our horse and not just critique.
