“3rd Grade - Desensitizing In Motion”

Your horse has passed 2nd grade—now it’s time for 3rd Grade: Desensitizing in Motion. In this lesson, Michael Gascon (The Horse Guru) explains why desensitizing at a standstill isn’t enough. A safe, reliable horse must stay calm and focused even while moving, cantering, or facing unexpected spooks on the trail.

You’ll learn:
✅ Why desensitizing in motion is the real test of control and safety.
✅ How to keep your horse’s attention when something scary happens.
✅ The importance of brakes and steering before riding.
✅ Pro tips for fixing fear and resistance on the ground before you get in the saddle.
✅ How to create a safe “bubble” and avoid dangerous situations during groundwork.

Michael demonstrates how to use groundwork exercises with tarps and movement to test your horse’s respect, attention, and responsiveness. These small tests can make the difference between a safe ride and a dangerous accident.
