7/29/13 practice and lesson

On Monday I rode Riley in a practice ride and for today's lesson I rode Joey in preparation for the show.  We are riding 1st 1 and hopefully it goes well.  We went over the test and worked on balance and down trans. and working on half halting with the outside of my thigh so he comes to trot from behind.  I scribed for the USDF show at Puckerbrush and learned a lot from both judges.  It was a great time!

7/3/13 Lesson and practice rides

This past Wednesday I rode Joey.  I rode him in the show so it was good to have a lesson on him.  We started off with 1st 1 and then corrections were made.   We started with flexing him and then we worked on lengthen canters and trots and utilizing a half halt and flexing him up before trot lengthenings to hold him together.  I had to be aware to sit on him more so I don't get perched.

7/4/13 practice-  I did a practice on Joey
7/5/13- practice on Joey
7/7/13- Joey and I showed T3 and First 1.  We scored a 66% and a 63% respectively.  Go Joey!
