ROCK AT HOME
Schooling to music at home is a fantastic way to help develop rhythm and also get a feel for how your training is coming along. With music, a trot will usually develop more lift and suspension and the tempo will slow as you progress. It’s a good idea to check the tempo regularly — canter and walk are often quite consistent, but the trot will change. Music is also a wonderful way to create a peaceful training environment — or, alternatively, to ramp up the energy levels.
