"Alright... there you go, little circles, nice and slow..." Lee was surprised at how well she was doing for her first time. T-touch was extremely simple, however, some people just didn't understand the patience you must have to do it well. "Watch your horse's eyes, ears, and muzzle.. he should begin to relax in a while."

Whitney watched some other people in the arena. She hopped on Major and led him into an arena. After a few minutes of warm -ups Whitney started a small course which had been set up in the arena. Whitney gave Major a sharp kick with her spurs and started to trot. After a circle she sped into a canter, signaling Major with another small kick and a tap of the crop. She effortllessly flew over the course and trotted back to the end with Major.

Morgana did as he said, careful not to push to hard. Eventually, a deep sigh escaped the gelding and his lip began to twitch.

"That's good.." he said taking notice to the horse's reaction. "You should probably stop there, some horses tend to get fiesty once the stretches start.. one day at a time!" He grinned and then gave the gelding a pat on the neck.

Whitney let Major walk for a few minutes then did the course over, a little quicker this time. They were flawless. When she was done Whitney led Major out of the ring and started her walk back to the barn.

"Yeah no problemo.." Lee smirked, "In about twenty minutes do the t-touch with him again and call me in and we'll work on the sore leg... I'll be out riding!" He said walking away to another stall, he'd been working an imported warmblood for Italy. The horse was highstrung and sent to Lee for further training as a jumper. Lee saddled quickly and did some ttouch. Then, he was out in the ring warming the beautiful black gelding.

Whitney continued back to the barn to switch Major's saddle. She wanted to work on some dressage with him. She walked in and put him in the cross ties. While she was tacking she looked around for someone to talk to.

Morgana led the gelding into his stall and took the halter off and waited for twenty minutes.(-_-)

Whitney re-tacked Major in a bates dressage saddle. She noticed someone in the barn but didnt bother. She grabbed her helmet and started to leave the barn.
