Riding Lesson
This afternoon I went riding like I normally do on Tuesdays. I ride Roxy, who's the paint in my picture over on the left side bar. I'm so excited about everything that has been happening this past couple of months. I'm really beginning to excel. Since I have finally been able to post, my teacher decided to teach me how to do two-point. First I practiced the stance while Roxy stood still. It was hard making sure that my body was aligned correctly. At the walk it was even more difficult to stay in the center of balance. But while Roxy was trotting, I was able to figure it out for a moment. It was really fun, even though because the reins were loose, Roxy went off on her own way. My teacher then lead Roxy and I tried doing two-point while Roxy went over the cavalletti. I went forward a bit too much and I felt like I was going to fly over Roxy's head. LOL. But it was really fun.
I also was able to canter with Roxy a bit more and I'm beginning to feel more comfortable with it. Roxy is listening to me more and realize that I'm the one in charge. :D
I just wish that I could go riding more often.
