Introduction & Preparation:
​Hands and Reins on Steddy Freddy


Welcome to your practice session on Steddy Freddy! 🐴✨
This exercise will help you refine your hand and rein techniques in a stable and controlled environment. Follow these simple steps to set yourself up for success:
1️⃣ Gather Your Equipment
✅ Reins: One pair to simulate the feel of riding.
✅ Whip: A simple wooden stick or your usual plastic whip.

2️⃣ Set Up on Steddy Freddy
🐎 
Mount Steddy Freddy: Sit comfortably in the saddle.
🎭 Simulate Rein Contact: Place something in front of you—a sturdy chair back, a bar, or any stable object—to mimic holding the reins.
3️⃣ Position Your Hands🤲 
Hold the reins as you would while riding—light but firm grip.
💡 Relax your elbows and keep them close to your body, allowing your hands to move naturally.
4️⃣ Use the Whip as an Aid🎯
 Keep the whip within easy reach to practice using it without disturbing your balance.
5️⃣ Focus on Your Posture
✔️ Sit upright with your core engaged.
✔️ Keep your shoulders back and your head up, just like when riding.
6️⃣ Start Your Practice!
Now you're ready to begin! Focus on the connection between your hands, reins, and body. Pay attention to how each movement affects your balance and posture.
🌟 This exercise will help you build muscle memory and confidence in your hand and rein techniques.
Enjoy your practice and have fun improving your skills in a relaxed setting! 🎠✨
