As the title says, my wife and I have decided to learn to ride. Our daughter has been learning to ride English and one evening while picking her up, we decided to talk to the instructor about lessons for us. I have a fair idea of what to expect from taking my daughter and watching her, but, as with many things, there can be differences between kids and adults. Its also a lot different to actually participate than just watch. Any tips/suggestions? Any gear that I should look into (I've only shopped the kids stuff so far)?
Thanks!
Hey all, I just booked a trip to Rio de Janeiro at the end of November. I'm wondering if any of you have been there, and if you've got a recommendation for a riding stable that offers day trips that are more advanced than the average walking trail/beach rides that I'm finding online. I went to Iceland a few years ago, and the day I spent on a riding excursion on an Icelandic horse was hands down the highlight of my trip. I'd love to find something similar in Brazil!
Ideally driving exercises or simple riding exercises.
My 6yo Welsh cob has had a neck injury most of her life that has really had a massive effect on her canter.
She is much better now but runs away from the departure. I work her as relaxed as possible at the trot because she tends to get anxious and drop her back, and only ask for collection when she offers it herself as I'm far too weak to really pick her up (chronic fatigue, I currently have very little muscle myself and use all my energy on her :p).
I try to get a few departures in on both hands every time I ride her and while she is certainly getting better, she picks up counter or cross canter quite often, particularly on the left hand, and runs and drops her back.
We barely have hills nearby, everything is flat as a pancake around here. :( But I try to take her out on long jogs.
I drive her a lot but she is quite green, and our arenas are too small for her (very big) canter with a carriage.
I am going to get her saddle checked out soon. She is definitely better when I lunge her in only a cavesson but I can't stand very long (again because of the fatigue) so ground work is sadly limited to short and far between sessions.
