Lucky with the weather - Dry !
Lesson 1
This group continued to work on school shapes in walk and trot. Today the focus was on 20 metre circles from A and C.
Chris is enjoying riding Rupert after Rupert's break. Fiona on Shamus maintained a nice riding position. Ethan worked hard on Sultan to keep Sultan moving forward. Louis rode Bally for the first time and spent time getting to know her way of working.
Lesson 2
This group are working on steering and control of their ponies - using the coloured markers to ride three loop serpentines in walk.
Courtney rode Rupert and Lucy rode Ferdie - using voice commands to encourage their ponies. Damaris really enjoyed riding Conker and wanted to take him home ! She worked hard to make left and right turns. Daisy on Sultan rode nice shapes. The final activity was Grandma's footsteps - there was a lot of excitement and enthusiastic cheating - by the volunteers !!
Lesson 3
This group also used the coloured markers to help them learn to steer.
Orla rode Harvey nicely. Tabitha rode Bally for the first time and worked hard to understand how to work with a different pony. Noah rode Bertie for the first time - he really sat up straight to show how well he can ride. Maddie rode Ben - she pretended he was Maximus and she was Rapunzel ! The lesson finished with several games of Grandma's Footsteps.
