Topic: How we use our legs as riders is directly related to how well we stabilize our center of mass over our own feet and in alignment with gravity. Legs can become almost the sole point of stability for many riders but will have negative effects on the horse's ability to balance. Discussion involves recognizing our own leg use as riders and how to make substantial improvements.
