Riding lessons
So I recently started taking horseback riding lessons. It was a birthday gift from Matt. I've taken four lessons now. I absolutely love it. It is the best hour of my week. I've wanted to take lessons for awhile but could never afford it. My trainer, Jen, is AWESOME! Seriously, she gives the best advice and is really thorough. Foxy, the horse, is pretty lazy but she's been great to learn on - except when she stops suddenly. Anyhow, I've managed to keep my balance, post at a walk and am now working on posting at a trot. Here are some videos from yesterday's lesson.
This is me almost falling off the horse. It wasn't my fault. Foxy likes to just stop suddenly. (Click to play the video)
I posted while trotting! Until Foxy stopped suddenly again.
The quality isn't very good, but you get the idea.
Also, here are some pictures from the lesson:
I really need to remember to keep my head/eyes up!
