An excerpt from "Round Pen First Steps":
If, despite your best efforts, your horse refuses to move around the pen, bring in another horse, one he gets along with and concentrate on getting the second horse to move. The second horse will give the first horse the proper idea: move. Before long you'll be able to remove horse number two.
Get the horse trotting around the pen, it doesn't matter which direction, clockwise or counter clockwise, as long as you pick a direction and stick with it (for now). Use the least amount of pressure it's takes to get the horse moving, then relax and stand in the center, the horse traveling around the perimeter. If your horse wants to turn back in to you or stand near you, do what it takes to get him to move off. Let the horse turn in and hang out with you now and you're teaching him from the start that he's the boss. Don't let that happen. See if for what it is – and it ain't obedience. If your horse is winging around at mach 60, so be it. Sooner or later every horse will slow down. Just stare off and listen to the beat. (rpt)
