Help teaching my pony long lining!

[dudypony]

Hi all,

I have just started trying to teach my pony how to long line but she's not really understanding, she tries to turn in towards me or stop - any ideas? I have tried to position my self correctly, should I try using a lounge whip to drag behind her?

Thanks x

I'd start with a helper to walk at her head, they can start by reinforcing your aids, then gradually they should become more passive as you get her to listen to you. Eventually progress so they're just walking next to her, then have them move further away, pehaps asking her to walk towards and away from them, she probably wants to come to you for support
