Fabulous Western trail lesson today everyone! Thank you for those who came. We revised the basics of Western trail and then we covered some more advanced things. Western trail is for the rider and horse to display natural ability. It is a routine over some obsticals. I feel like last lesson we didn’t get enough in depth so I went through everything this lesson. For those of you interested in Western, here is the list. Basic features Opening/ closing a gate Walking across a bridge Cross over a log Back up (normally with a turn) turn on the hindquarters in a confined area Advanced features A small (under 15 inch) jump Going through water Doing a ground tie. Dismounting and walking away from the horse, then coming back. In a routine you need to show walk, trot and canter. Today we just, in pairs, made a routine and the winners were Aleksandrina Shyforest and Louisa Bluepie. Ally came along to the lesson to see if she wanted to rejoin the club, I’m happy to say that it turns out that she wants to join the club and the club wanted her to join! So welcome Ally.
Hugs Li
