An excerpt:

If you can lunge your horse comfortably, then another excellent thing to do instead of the "turn your hips, walk back and forward" movements we learned on Day One is to lunge your horse, but with a twist. Rather than allowing our horse to run around in circle after circle some thirty feet away - lunge the horse about 6 feet away (at a trot) and ask for turns every half revolution. The frequent turns cause the horse to A) Work harder, to B) Carry itself in a more balanced, softer fashion and C) Stay focused on us - as is evidenced by a rounded neck, increased eye contact and a head turned in toward us. If, while doing this, your horse begins to move sluggishly or turn before you even ask, speed him up and ask for a few complete revolutions before returning to the frequent rollbacks. (Also, make sure you vary the spot where you ask for your turn.) When the horse will travel half a circle and turn back going the other way in a "smart fashion," (it'll be obvious, they turn like garbage when first starting out) then move up close to a wall (that's you standing about four or five feet from a wall) and ask the horse to lunge around and through this smaller opening. Horses are naturally apprehensive about entering any smaller, enclosed space, so getting yours comfortable through this “gauntlet” will improve the control you have and the concentration he has.
