Last weeks horse ride was such a thrill, I went in the school but it was a different type of lesson. Instead of just doing tricks and tactics in the school we did a jumping lesson which is very rare thing that happens in the rose and crown. We started of with the simple cross poles and gradually progressed to a 2ft straight pole. We didn't a canter over the poles this helps us get more height over the poles instead of trotting and failing to jump the pole and get a clear round. As always, I rode my favourite horse ever, BOB, he is still as amazing as ever at trusts me quite a lot. He also obeys what signals I give him in horse terms these are called aids. Aids are a sequence of instructions that you give the horse for it to move or move forward or slow down. I will be going horse riding again this weekend and I don't know if I will be going out on a road ride or staying in the school to improve my horsemanship.
