Fabulous lesson

So had a lesson today with Parelli Pro Kresney Craft. She helped me saddle and ride my youngster who I've only been on a few times.
We saddled and worked out some LBI 'I'm not standing there' issues. She has me back up or disengage Star everytime she walked off. Worked beautifully! Played online with the green ball for the first time ever and Star LOVED it! She pushed it all over the place!!
Once I mounted Kresney had me ride in a circle using "Look, leg, stick, rein" and it was super effective! By the end I was riding with just a look :) super happy with how my lesson went!

Take aways- Make sure I make standing still for saddling/mounting very important
Have less rest/pause time inbetween so my horse doesnt get bored and do something else.

Today was really cool!

Also watched her give a lesson to two other girls and went over some different rein positions. Really awesome! Can't wait until the workshop she's doing next weekend!!

Been a Long time!

So I have been making a ton of Progress with my mare Ladee. I can ride her pretty confidently walk/trot. Even out in a field. Our trouble comes on a a casual rein; because I'm not "holding her hand" she falls apart. Working on riding with a carrot stick. Also working on getting our friendly game a lot better. We are still working on a lot of level 2 tasks and some level 3.

Twister- This horse makes my day. We are in level 3 together and he is such a doll. Finesse is the part that will be hard for us because he'd rather I leave him alone. Played at liberty yesterday and had fun! Also doing carrot stick riding with him :)
