working towards our half steps 🙌🥰
so please with how she is progressing, this isnt something we do a lot of work on but she never falls back on me she always picks up where we left off.
shes just starting to understand the concept of lifting the leg while travelling forwards, there's a few bits in the clips where you can see shes starting to get the little hop 😍
being the first horse I am teaching the piaffe, I am making sure I keep it a calm happy experience for us both 😊

We've been a little quiet lately... but here's a little update of how Thea is coming along. Her canter is starting to take shape and she is starting to learn to keep the consistency in the contact through both reins. Our transitions are both upwards and downwards are staying together a lot more and she is getting stronger each session we have.
I'm so unbelievably proud of this horse, she has overcome so much anxiety and tension in the ridden work, we have produced everything very slowly and she has not been rushed, I am now reaping the benefits of my patience 🧡🤍
Have to get my velcro pants on when I start jumping this one.... why put in another stride when you can just miss some out 🙈🤣
A mare that does it her way 😳
I'm so done with winter 🥶
Its all been going so well, I suppose I was due a bit of Thea's querk. Keeping me on my toes.
So shes been schooling quite nicely but she's just been a little lagging and not very sharp in transitions or sharp off the leg. So today we added some pressure and asked more of her... let's just say she had some opinions about that.
I'm just glad I stayed on and we haven't had a set back for it 💪
5yr old sass is well and truly underway 😬
