today in my lesson i rode Max. We warmed up with w/t transitions and a few 20 meter circles. Once we were warmed up we worked on tracking up at w/t/c and we did good at that We worked on simliar exercises like the rest of the lesson, and then we cooled out around the ponds . Me and Max have come a long way since the first time i rode him  Wow. Forgot to add, JUMPING LESSON NEXT WEEK ;D |

Stacey, you and Max really have improved since ur first lesson together!! Your canter looks sooo much more natural now!! You'll surely be ready to jump this Monday!! Can't wait!! I hope I'm not on Champ again, I just don't have the leg muscles to get him over a jump!! I really don't know how Emily does it!!

Thanks Jenn! i can really feel it though. It used to be tense but now its easy flowing! Holly and Jenn- Champ can be a pain, but he really does build leg muscle and teaches you that you need to become the boss. |

Haha, we didn't just jump tonight, but we did flyings, too!  Thanks though! And another thing about Champ, you need to get used to him, and he needs to get used to the way you work, too. Once you find out what buttons to press, you'll both understand each other! |

Aww thanks Jules i love her ! Haha Erin here it is now  ...... I rode Sabrina in my lesson today for the first time and she was fantastic! We wamred up with some circles in walk and trot then worked on circles and getting a good head carrage. Then we moved on to 2 loop serpentines and changing our bend around them, once we did it good at a trot, the second time around around we troted the first half then canterd the other and canterd down the long side. After all that we did we did a few figure 8's then we cooled out for a long time because it was such a hot day. When we went inside me and Sabby were both very sweaty aha so i sponged her down and put her back out in her paddock! I love riding her |
