So, I've decided to go back to the weird old world of riding schools.
I'm a bit nervous because where I'm planning to go is a lot more serious than my last place (where I only had about 4 lessons anyway because I quit my job and couldn't afford any more. And it was about 3 years ago.) and that was after a break of about 6/7 years, (I rode for about 6 years previous to the break, doing and riding ANYTHING)
Then I got a really sweet ex-racer on loan. We were just hacking, doing the odd bit of schooling (nothing even slightly serious) and some jumping (I managed to get up to about 2ft6 - 2ft9 confidently), then I found out I was pregnant so stopped riding.
Now I haven't ridden at all for about 10 months. My baby is now 8 weeks old and I feel ready to start again.
Okay, so there's not much point to this thread, I'm just excited and nervous, and maybe looking for any helpful tips/advice?
 
What sort of tips would you like? Rescue remedy is good for butterflies, but you are probably more capable than you think. Have fun!
