I do both also, which is good for your horse to learn to focus on you and not "where's my herd??!!"  What I have also found to be an incredible help is riding with the local barn people.  Scarlet has learned to really focus on what I want and not the group because we'll be riding with such a mixed bag.  Some people haul ass, others are afraid and go slow.  I alternately put Scarlet with different sections of the groups so she could learn that we would go at MY pace, where I wanted to go.  It's worked wonders at getting her to quit spazzing out at rides when 60+ horses take off in front of her.  She's still excited, but she doesn't fight me.

I am curious as to how many of you train by yourself and how many of you
train with partners. Also curious if your training style is by necessity or
by choice.............thanks, kim from lakeport
