The Before photos are easy to critique, but the angle of the After ones makes it very difficult to see anything :)

um, cant see much from the first photos, your leg postition seems a lot more stable and you look much more part of the horse from what i see, but thats not much!
If you can id love to see some more fotos!! :) All of the horses seem lovely, all seem to be trying their hardest!! :)

Hi
Your positon is pretty good, but you point your toes down, making you lower leg fall back. If your horse stumbled on landing you could go over his head. Try to keep a bit more weight in your heel (I've done this, and it hurts! Especially if the horse carries on going right over you). Apart from that, your position is pretty good!
