Pintada did well today. We worked on getting her behind the bridle. She still tends to heavy in the front end. She pushes her hind end through her front end. She tends to loose focus and get mad. If you are patient and let her work through her fit, she will settle down. She is tough to deal with when she has fit because she has won in the past.
We also worked at flexing at the poll. She is doing well at this. We worked on leg yeilds. She does them, but she tends to push on the bridle when she does them. That is because she is so heavy on the front end.
We also worked a little on the walk trot transitions. She has a sort of Western Pleasure trot.

Hello, was just searching the web and came across your blog. My gelding tends to do the same thing, that is being heavy in the front end. something that works for me is to get him going and then asking him to stop. kind of like playing red light green light or freeze tag. first couple times he gets a little pissy but eventually becomes more in tune with me and gets off his front end and is more balanced. then we can work on more things. just a thought!
Have a savvy day!
