First canter.....

[Laura44]

So, tomorrow's lesson is apparently going to include my first ever canter. Bricking it! Any advice?!

 

[Bodshi]

Sit up and smile! Enjoy

Sit back and enjoy it! It's much easier than trot once you relax into it. I always lean forward too much, just think upright and sway with the horse. Lovely.

 

[Laura44]

Lol, thanks... upright & sway, upright & sway. I can do this!

 

[Trewsers]

Smile and don't hold your breath! Lol it's a wonder I didn't used to topple right off through holding it so long!

 

[Laura44]

Arggh! I survived and I LOVED it! Good advice guys, I was definitely smiling!! Buzzing - again, again!

This! I much prefer canter to trot, especially in no stirrup work!

Have you had your lesson yet? How did it go? x

I vividly remember my first canter: my cheeks hurt from grinning! It was a real milestone. Glad you enjoyed it!
