Choppy trot
My pony has the choppiest trot, but in the two years I've known her, it has always been bouncy. Any exercise/groundwork recommendations to help? I haven't ridden her in a little over a week, and today her trot was extra bad. No matter what I tried, I felt like I was slamming down on her back (sitting and posting). Her fist few steps of trot were fine, then she gets bracey and kinda hollow. She also has a habit of trotting as fast as she possibly can (she used to be a cow pony, so i don't think they cared how she moved), especially when turning, so tips on that would be helpful too. She has a decent walk and a surprisingly smooth canter, it's just the trot that gives me a run for my money 😑😑😑 Also any tips for teaching her how to properly carry herself while trotting would help :)
