June 8, 2013 lesson #36

Hello!

This week was a weird week at riding. When we arrived and headed down to the barn all of the horses were switched around including my newly acquired Spell! I was extremely sad/unhappy to be riding a different horse, although I did warm up to him quickly.

His name is Caffi and he is a chestnut gelding :) he is actually silly looking and is like riding 10 different horses all at once! He was just started in jumping lessons just lately.

This week:
-warm up (flexing, square turns, forward walk)
-warm up at trot (square turns, leg yields)
-sitting trot
-no stirrup work
-canter work
-2 cross poles (one handed jump, no hands!!!)

Caffi is actually a fantastic jumper, and he gets a little bit excited :) the thing is one of his legs is shorter than the rest of them so he looks really goofy when he canters and trots. He also is very lazy until he sees a jump so lucky me!

I actually like him but I wish I was riding spell! For the show I put down:

1.Spell
