This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Okay, who out there has never felt any anxiety while riding?
Thought so : ) I am slowly but surely becoming more comfortable with riding our boys in challenging situations. My "other half" has been very instrumental (he's a natural teacher, what can I say?). Last week we went for a trail ride, and Tommes got a bit antsy, started hopping around. I jumped out of that saddle in no time! I felt silly, leading my horse, but I wanted him to settle down and walk which he did after a while. "Honey" never pressured me to get back up, but I saw the broad smile on his face when I eventually did. I just had to get my legs under me in my own time. Since then, I have felt much more confident. Every ride gets better. Our horses quickly get used to all the attention, as people often pull over to the side of the road to admire the Fjords! Brigid in CA
