First Compliment

I had my first riding compliment today. (I think and hope) maybe my lessons are paying off

My RI and YO give me loads but they dont count do they lol

My friend came down to see my new horse and I was doing a little work in the school, when I stopped she said, please tell me how you manage to keep your legs so still in trot and canter!

Wow I didnt know I did, Iv seen people with moving legs and just assumed I was one of them, I thought only really good riders kept there legs still and Im normally too worried about keeping my hands still, leaning back, breathing and anything else that I can think of then to worry to much what my legs are doing
