Horseback October 4

Today I rode Rebel again. Since it had been raining the last few days the horses have been stuck inside, and Rebel had a lot of energy. Today we made huge progress in having his neck stay straight throughout the ride, which in turn lead to him achieving straightness throughout his whole body. We worked mainly on leg yielding, and trying even harder to keep his body straight while moving sideways. Now that Rebel has been taught the basic understanding of how dressage movements work I have been working very hard on perfecting the movements, and making him do them without fuss or confusion. My instructor said that today was the best lesson i've had on him, and it defiantly felt awesome to hear that.
