This is what it is ALL about! The simple joy in a pony hug after “the best lesson yet” ❤️

11/08/2024

Foremost is on the search for someone to help get horses/ponies ready for lessons 1-2 days per week. Ideal candidate would be someone who is knowledgeable on horse anatomy,care, proper bandaging, tack, etc., and is eager to share that knowledge with the lesson client. Fun work environment, heated facility, kind and well mannered horses/ponies.

We will also be starting to look for an additional instructor to teach beginner lessons on Friday afternoons come December/January 🤩

And will add, also comes down to safety!

Be pushable.

If you are an athlete, or heck, even someone with any kind of goal, be pushable.

As a trainer, coachability and humility are two of my favorite traits a student can possess. Pair those with work ethic, and you have an unbeatable mixture for success. But more and more, I’m seeing that those tend to be elusive qualities. There are reasons for this. Entitlement. Helicopter parents. Wanting instant gratification. Or just the classic oldie but goodie: laziness.

I teach riders with all sorts of different goals, and what the goal is does not matter to me. I will do my best to help you win at the horse show, or I will do my best to help you become better with basic horsemanship and equitation so that you can be the safest trail rider on the mountain. However, if you have lofty goals, you better have lofty work ethic.

You need to be pushable.

If a trainer asks for more and is met with resistance, then for what are you even using one? I have witnessed riders flat out ignoring me, not listening until I say it 17 times, “trying” (but not actually), crying, whining, making excuses, blaming the horse… Basically avoiding responsibility for the situation. Growing up taking lessons, I wanted to be pushed. I wanted to grow as a rider. Little did I know then how much that was helping me and my lesson mates grow as a human too.

Riding is scary sometimes. It is hard physically and mentally. It requires discomfort. But being pushable means being comfortable with being uncomfortable. Accepting that growth isn’t comfortable. Stagnation is comfortable.

Coming back from my concussion a couple years ago left me with an almost paralyzing fear. But I have pushed through worry and discomfort to finally have a small sense of security on a horse again. I have done the work until I thought my legs might fall off. I have cried, sweated, cursed, and celebrated. I have erased doubt with tiny accumulations of “oh wait, I didn’t die! I DID IT!” moments.

If you are an athlete, be pushable. Be coachable. Dig deep, find your grit, and rally. Talk less. Listen more. Go into challenges instead of avoiding them. Understand it’s a SPORT, meaning your muscles will be tired. Your lungs will feel empty at times. You will be sore. You will grow.

But not unless you are pushable.

Foremost has a handful of horses/ponies for summer leases!! All are show quality with the ability to show beginners the ropes, or get a more advanced rider back in the ring. Available for full and half leases.

A big CONGRATULATIONS going out to Stonewall Eleanor and Avery on being circuit Championship in the Childrens Ponies at WEC this season! Has been so much fun watching your progress thru the divisions!
They might love eachother😍… or a treat could be involved as well🍎🤩

The juice was definitely worth the squeeze🤩

Spencer, Poopie, and myself ventured out on a last minute trip to WEC this weekend.
Spencer was his usual cool self who prefers early morning hand walks, and sharing snacks.
Schooled fantastic, stepped into the ring and did all the grown up pony things with only a couple green pony questions along the way.

⭐️ Spencer ended up champion ⭐️
🥕 🍎 🥕 🍎 🥕 🍎 🥕 🍎 🥕 🍎

Also, he earned himself a new grown up bridle:)

As always, came home with an assignment for homework and will chip away at that before the next outing.

Appreciate Stonewall Ponies- Emily Elek willingness to always welcome us, Becky Engle-Anderson’s Bailey for the kind, and keen guidance of Spencer along the way, and of course Kristin Serwatt for the consistent expertise at home(you’re coming next time!)

It is also fun to have the breeder message you at the horse show that they recieved a message that spencer is cute!

In case there is any question, I might love him ❤️

On a side note, Spencer is available for lease!
