Fun little exercise for Lace and Arrow this morning! 💪
As part of their autumn training, we didn't focus on fence height, instead we focused on accurate riding of lines with an appropriate, balanced pace, with a gridwork base for strength training.
This was followed by a breakfast trip to talk aims for the winter, and plan their competitions between now and Christmas!

Holly and Porshe getting to know each other over some fences last night.
Holly hasn't jumped for a little while, and Porshe is an experienced mare but does often have her own ideas of how she should do things. They did a fab job or learning to respect each other and work as a team!

One of my favourite exercises - raised walk poles!
I talk about this exercise a lot with clients!
This is Oscar over 10 walk poles, raised at alternate ends on the long reins.
Core engagement and back lifting/strengthening
💪
This exercise needs to built up to with fewer poles and starting with them flat!
Oscar has done lots of polework over the last few weeks, but he hasn't done this specifically for a little while, I would have liked to have seen a little more stretch over his back but he was a little shocked at the number of poles he had today!

Apologies for the complete radio silence so far this week!
It's half term for most of my clients so it's a very busy week with extra training sessions for my younger riders. I'm also still not completely 100% after fighting off the virus that seems to be dragging on and on! 🤧🤒
I am, however, starting to get back on board! 💪Jaffa has done a few short, easy sessions this week since moving to start coming back into work. And Nora took me for a little pootle this afternoon... After a few miserable days weather wise, it really did feel as though spring might be on the way! 🥰

💪 Gridwork Training 💪
Lace and Arrow are preparing for their season ahead; dressage, hunter trials and one day eventing!
Arrow has the heart of a lion for his jumping, but as you can see, he is not the typical build for eventing. We take time to make sure he is as strong and fit as possible at the start of the season to minimise his risk of injury.
This was his first grid session of the year, building that booty power! 💪

🌟 XC Technique Training - Skill Training 🌟
Building on a session from a few weeks ago when we worked on accurately jumping a single fence on an angle, yesterday Eloise and Percy tackled alternating angled fences on a related distance.
All of Percy's training is geared towards a competitive hunter trial season!
💪 Strength 💪 Skill 💪 Fitness 💪
