Julie Goodnight 's Tip of the Month on Disengagement
Disengagement of the hindquarters occurs when your horse crosses his hind legs. Your horse's "motor" is in his hind end. So, when his hind legs cross, the engine is in neutral; your horse stops forward impulsion. Disengagement also encourages your horse to have a submissive attitude. You're taking away his flight response. Disengagement is a natural, voluntary behavior for horses and it signals contrition. In natural settings, it's only seen in neo-natal foals. Use disengagement as a tool to refocus your horse and stop his forward impulsion. You should be able to disengage your horse from the ground and from the saddle-both are easy to do. Simply drive your horse forward then tip his nose up and to the inside as he steps up under himself with his inside hind leg. Disengagement is thoroughly explained in articles and on instructional videos available at www.JulieGoodnight.com. ... Read the full article
