Hey everyone!!! I am so excited to have over 800 views on my blog!!! Thanks so much, and I hope you enjoy.
I started the fall riding season again! I was hoping to be put on a new horse this season but I am still on Patches, oh well!! I love him a lot anyway. We didn't do much this week only walk and trot but here is what we did:
1) Warm up (arm circles, standing in the stirrups, 2-point)
2)Walk (forward), and halt exactly at letters in the arena
3) Trot
4) Trot to walk to halt transitions
5) Trot to walk transitions
6) Turn on the haunches (down quarter line)
Patches has gained some weight over the summer, so he was really slow. I didn't want to use the crop on him too much but I did a bit to get the forward walk our coach was asking for.
Me an patches were pretty in pink, as his white splotches were died pink for a breast cancer riding thing a couple of weeks ago (and it hasn't faded) I had my pink helmet, and he also had a pink saddle pad and boots!!! :P
I was hoping that we would be able to canter but we apparently had to work our way in slowly LOL
Thanks for reading!!!
