Sat 5th March 2011 - Lunge Lesson in the sunshine

Had another lesson on the lunge this morning...

Oh, I should say that I caught Kermit perfectly yesterday in the middle of the day and brought her in, gave her some nuts, and then turned her straight back out again .......

Anyway, really good lesson practising weight aids and also my downwards transition from trot to walk. Really focussed on not gripping with the knees and sitting down into the saddle to minimise 'bounce'. I think Charlie is starting to understand that there is so much more to riding a horse then just getting on and going for it, especially if you want a really safe and responsive horse. He has asked to have a lunge lesson too - woo hoo!
