    Calling riders with low confidence! WWYD

    I'm no hero and I do get off sometimes and walk past things(not many though)but do make sure I get back on when I've passed it! My confidence isn't great at times so I surround myself with people who do make me feel confident and find I'm not really even noticing things anymore!

    Can't believe I froze!

    Well we went for a lovely relaxing ride on the common again today and rode quietly along the track that we fell on(something I felt we needed to do) We came across a lovely sand track and had a trot but he went into a canter and I trusted him to look after me and he did,was totally buzzing!

    Can't believe I froze!

    I went for a lovely ride a couple of weeks ago and my horse tripped and fell,neither of us were hurt but when I asked my horse for a canter today I just froze and couldn't do it! Anyone help with any advise please,I love him and trust him and he was such a gent and totally knew I panicked!

    Help

    I think I listened too much to a horse whisperer!(she wasn't even there for me..lol) Feel a bit silly and sad that I've upset my horse!!!!(won't be doing that again) Have taken her to shows and done classes with no hassle in the loose ring so I have to say "if it ain't broke don't try to fix it"

    Help

    I have recently put my horse in a French link fulmer(as advised) and since I have done this she refuses to open her mouth to except it and also when I asked her for canter on a lesson she threw herself in the air! totally out of character as she is so sweet! she has a new saddle,her teeth are...
