2x2 Weaves - Day 3 - 6

Session 3
Our third session on the weave training was less successful than the session before. This session the weaves were at 2 and 8 o'clock. Tia did get them although she didn't seem to drive through them as much as before.

Session 4 & 5
During session 4 we completed more repetitions from the above stage, just making sure that Tia understood what she was supposed to do with the poles at the 2 and 8 o'clock angle. Her accuracy on this has definitely improved.

In Session 5, we moved on to the next stage of moving to two sets of two poles. At first the sets of 2 poles were 15' apart, then 7'. Tia did these very well and seemed to go from one set to the next very well. Tia was not as accurate on the "wrap" round entry as she went through the middle of the first set.

Session 6
This session is our las one for this week. We moved the 2 sets of poles so that they were 4' apart and then after Tia has succesfully completed many repetitions I decided that it was time to push her forward and move the 2 sets of poles into normal weave spacing (2') and also change the angle of the pole of 1 and 7 o'clock. I was so impressed with Tias' progress during this session, it is really teaching her to drive to the weave entry and through the 4 poles. I am really looking forward to the next session which we are doing on Monday!
