The day before a competition

The day before a competition! People often wonder what to do with the horse the day before a competition. It is something I wonder about a lot, and I want a few tips from you on how you do it and what "works" before a competition.

Good question! In the last few days before a competition, I focus purely on building confidence and security in both myself and the horse. I do this by working on transitions and communication. I never introduce anything new, and I avoid drilling anything that is difficult. I want to give us both a good feeling 💫
