ART Dressage

11/22/2024

Had my first lesson on this nugget today! As a professional Dressage rider we are always striving to be great and perfect. Well I don’t need greatness or perfection. I want to enjoy the journey of training and the art of communication between man and horse 🤩 taking this journey with my babies one step at a time. Learning, growing, becoming flexible and most importantly having fun ❤️

Wow you are so lucky! I hear that phrase everyday. My response is always yes I am I am the luckiest girl in the world. What people don’t see is everything that had to happen for me to be “lucky”.

I believe there is a part of being lucky that is truly luck but there is also a big part that is luck we create.

I have been on this journey a long time and wouldn’t be here without a lot I mean a lot of people, and a lot of horses. Every person that I crossed paths with has helped me. I picked a village of people that I have listened to and have helped guide me. I also have ridden countless horses where everyone has taught me something different.

I have worked tirelessly on getting better everyday I ride I am striving to be better. I want to be better not just for myself but mainly for my horses. I believe what makes this sport hard is being able to see the horses as individuals. I ride 8-10 horses a day and each horse is their own individual. They have their own personality, stiffnesses and feelings. Being able to quickly adapt to their needs is what makes an ok rider to a great rider.

Thank you to all the people that have helped me on this journey it’s a lifetime of learning 🥰 my biggest thank you is to every horse who has given me the opportunity to ride them, learn from them it has been an honor.

Thank you ❤️

Friday Training Thoughts:

As a coach and observer, one of the biggest challenges is recognizing that each horse is unique. No one-size-fits-all approach! Adaptability, adjustment, and active listening are key. What worked yesterday may not today, and what suited a horse in '95 might not for a 2017 companion. This sport demands flexibility and an open mind. Seek a coach who embraces diverse experiences and understands the need for a flexible training program.
