On February 14th and 15th, Michelle Knapp (www.knapphorsemanship.com) provided the Mounted Patrol Unit with a two day training focusing on "Posture and Balance" at the Horse First Farm. Officers learned how to be a more connected and effective partner by understanding how they can improve their horses balance through their own body position. How subtle the changes can be was an eye opening experience. A special thank you to Sally Manshardt, Madison Mounted non-profit board member, who put it all together for the unit!
