Question

Answer 1

You'll get more answers if you answer this in the horse section (it's under the 'Pets' heading)...

Answer 2

Talk to your teacher.

She knows better than anyone what you are doing wrong, and she can help you. Also this will show initiative.

Answer 3

it's not an answer you need, it's my show team coach!

she's the greatest!!!!

i went from beginner to advanced in one lesson, litterally!

she doesn't let me jump very high yet, but i get free rides (and what she doesn't know wont hurt her).

to impress ur instructor, u need to use PERFECT posture... grip with your legs, put all your weight in ur heels at all times, turn into the jump at the right time, and go straight out of it, never cut a corner, and show her that you can back up (incase you don't know, you pull back on the reigns, kick, and go sssss, b/c it sounds like a smake and horses back away from snakes).

my instructor has us ride w/out our syripps if we don't maintain perfect posture. (it's the show team).

GOOD LUCK!
