Yes, it was awesome! I love riding bareback and I didn’t die. I slid off of the horse once, but landed on my feet, which was fine. It was one of the best lessons I have had thus far and I feel like my seat improved a lot during the hour we rode. I was on a different horse this week, named Ayla. What a sweet, sweet girl! She is so gentle and kind and she is really in tune with her rider. If she feels you slipping she slows down until you catch up. She also gives great hugs and muzzle kisses.
Ayla
Jazz, the horse Mrs. Cartwright has been riding. Also a very nice girl. She used to be a trail horse, so she likes to get behind Ayla when we work in the arena.
Have a lovely weekend!
Love,
Lauren

Oh, you are riding! Great! I miss it so much but time and money prevent. I have a friend who will let me go trail riding with her but again, I haven't been able to work it in. Have you tried side-saddle? Get the hang of stride first. If you do know an instructor that has side saddles and can give you a chance to try it in a ring, go for it. It is not as difficult as stride to stay on but if the horse goes down, you go with it. Not good. But it is fun to side saddle - really it is. Bonne chance!
Awww...adorable!
