River was a great sport this week for me to learn all I could in the school of légèreté and gain more tools in my tool belt💪🏽 I can’t thank Pippa Callanan enough for sharing her knowledge with us and answering all my questions from the ground to the saddle!
Big thank yous go to clinic host, Max Goodman, and River Wind Stables for the use of their lovely facility, and of course Ethos Equine and Kathleen Beckham for the lovely River 🩵

Little sneak peak of our week so far with Pippa Callanan! We spent the morning learning progressions of the in hand work, all things flexion and lateral that are so great for my young horses and yours 💪🏽 We’re introducing River to haunches in from the ground in this clip!

Pull up a chair, this is one of the long ones. I’ve been waiting for the right time to introduce my new mare, going back and forth on whether or not to keep waiting. Then I decided we rarely see anything but carefully curated posts of success, myself included, so here’s the other side of things:
I bought a new mare, and we’re having a rough start to our partnership.

Chantilly Moon is a kind, classy European bred thoroughbred mare born in Peru and imported to race here in the U.S. Very much “my type.” I picked her up over a month ago with plans to get back out competing.
Since then, I’ve gotten to ride her five times…

Tilly, as she’s known in the barn, has had two emergency vet visits since she got here, two scenarios that none of us could’ve prevented without a suit of bubble wrap armor. Through all of that though, as frustrating as it is, I’ve gotten to know her better faster than I would have otherwise. This all gave me the chance to understand who Tilly really was and how she felt about life.

Her first sutures had to go in her left ear, but she presented a rather panicked reaction at being touched at all once she was in distress. It took a lot of slow work to get her patched up.
This go round, the sutures are on the front of her face and she’s needing doctoring in several other places as well; cleaning, medicating, wrapping, and spraying everything with Alu-Shield. Not only was she completely unproblematic to catch, she has been an absolute angel to doctor on my own.

It turned out Tilly was pretty apprehensive to the idea that people could be helpful to her, especially in high stress situations.
I’m not sure I would have really understood how insecure she was if not for our bad luck, which meant she wouldn’t have started to feel better in her own body until much later.
She’s looking like she wants to be a pretty quiet horse if given the chance and I look forward to getting her healed up and back to it!

Another first for these two fillies 🥰 my KWPN cross, LaFee, on the left and Ethos Equine and Kathleen Beckham’s quarter horse, Lily, on the right both did great for their first time carrying big saddles. Closer to their first trips with a rider every day!

When two nights in a row of heavy rain turns the round pen into a pond, you take the opportunity to teach the young warmbloods about water crossings 👌🏽🌦️

A recent jump school with the perfect pony, Iris 🥰 She’s coming along so nicely, getting pretty handy! I’m quite excited for what more we can get done before it’s time for her to find her perfect home!

Super-pony, Iris, really impressed today, stepping up and putting in some good hours working cows, even doing some sorting in the pens, prepping for this years breedingThose big momma cows might be easily double her size, but Iris steps right in there and gets the job done like a pint sized pro!
