Ive discovered the joys of dressage!

Ive always said I dont like dressage, I am a jumper! Thankfully ive gotten away with that on my pony.

But now ive been given a horse on a sort of loan, I dont have to pay for anything! Its such an opportunity!

This horse has done a bit of dressage and goes really nicely so ive definatly got into it! I did the pony club level D and did well. Then I tryed prelim 1 last weekend and got 65.26% and won the class, I was so happy!

Now ive kinda got the bug and going to try prelim 4 at a show this weekend! Dressage is great for me and the horse and im actually enjoying it!

Me & JP doing prelim 1
