Hi
I'm looking to get back into horse riding in the new year as I sold my horse in 2014 in preparation for having a baby. I have had horses since I was a child but dont want to just jump straight back in and buy another without having some riding lessons first, going down to a yard etc to brush up. The thing is, im a tall girl at 6ft2 and im not skinny (im not fat by all means) but my horse I owned was a 16.2 friesen x welsh cob and he was perfect for me in all ways. Im worried that riding schools wont have horses that are big enough for me, embarrassed that I will be laughed at, turned away etc. I would feel more confident approaching this if I was thin but this just isnt me!
Any advice or info on places in lincolnshire that would cater to me would be massively appreciated
