Hey, I booked a half price lesson at a riding school today to have a chance to see what I am like as a rider - and not to focus on Stumpy.

Well it certainly highlighted some awful faults!! I dont ride with a contact and rest my hands on the neck of the horse, my toes constantly point downwards and my legs shoot forwards in trot :eek: :rolleyes:

Its been nearly 3 years since I've had a full on lesson focusing on me and it looks like I need more! I have booked a lesson in 3 weeks time - I just didnt realise I was such a bad rider :eek:

Have you got any helpful tips?
