“Breaking Up Pace Using The Respect Series With Smokey Day 1"

🚨 Is your gaited horse stuck pacing or struggling to find a smooth 4-beat gait? In this video, Michael Gascon—The Horse Guru—works with Smokey, a pacy horse on Day 1 of training, using foundational groundwork from the Respect Series to unlock softness, balance, and a better gait.

You’ll learn:
✅ How to identify and fix resistance through flexion and body control
✅ The difference between trot, pace, and true gait—and how to move your horse to the middle
✅ Why softening the poll, shoulders, and hindquarters is key to breaking up pace
✅ How interval training and strategic release help the horse relax and learn faster
✅ The importance of adapting your approach based on the horse’s needs

This is an in-depth, step-by-step demonstration of how to use groundwork and body awareness to help pacy horses soften, round up, and start moving in a smooth, 4-beat gait. Whether you’re working with a Tennessee Walker, Paso Fino, or any gaited breed—this method works.
