So somewhere between July and yesterday - September 10 - I found my big girl breeches and put them on.
I'm finally confident enough to get after Rosie when she doesn't want to canter, or wants to break to a trot.
Finally.
Finally sitting up and letting her motion rock my pelvis, relaxing my legs and simply riding the canter, which is fast, often unbalanced, and laced with plenty of draft attitude.
I don't care though - we are cantering and it feels brilliant !
Awesome!! Congrats :)
ReplyDeleteGood stuff! Her canter will only improve by lots of . . . cantering!
ReplyDeleteYeah!!! I am right there with ya, sister :) Feels great, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteWahoo!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome!! Happy for you!
ReplyDeleteYou go girl! I love how you used the word brilliant! :)
ReplyDeleteDrafts have attitude? I always thought they were sweet, laid back and willing. lol!

Good for you and Rosie! The more you do it the easier it will get.
