I met with my new eventing instructor on Tuesday, fell in love with her style of instruction, and rode in my first lesson with her on Wednesday. She is an amazing instructor. She really understands the horse and riding- and helps you understand. I have not had a lesson that good since I was a kid. I know she is the perfect instructor for me at this point in time and well worth my hard-earned money. She had me jumping cross-rails (first time really jumping in nine years and it felt SO GOOD). She wore me out, though. I am so sore today. I feel like it was the first time I ever used my legs. (This is an article about her.)
After my lesson, I went to exercise the polo ponies. It was such a great day. Tomorrow is another pony-filled day as I get to exercise for polo and then go horse hunting with the club.
My life has really turned around since I started riding again. I don't ever want to go back to how I was.
Here's to a great new coach/rider relationship and a great new year of riding!
