How to close your hand around the reins without tightening your wrist
Try this exercise!
To be able to close your hand without tightening your wrist, try making a fist one finger at the time from the top or index finger down. If you start by squeezing your little finger too tight the wrist will lock and you will not be able to feel the contact on your ring finger.
I love seeing riders share their homework with me! Shout out to @flavia_nel_giardino at Afton Stables for working on finding light and even contact through the weight of the bit.
