Hey there
I'm looking to have some lessons after xmas, and am thinking about giving Kingfsiher Equestrian a whirl as its close.
Just wondered if anyone has had tuition here and what it has been like? Also, what are the comps like there? Are they nice and relaxed, you know, for novice neddies...
Hey there!
Really want to start having some lessons after xmas, and think i'm gonna give Kingfisher equestrian a whirl.
Just wondered if anyone has had tuition here and what they thought of it? Also, what are the comps held there like? Are they more for these "all-singing, all-dancing...
He looks lovely I would be rather pleased too He also looks completely unfazed!
I also sat on mine around the same age, well a little earlier at 2yrs. He's a big strong NH TB. Did it out in the field, got dad to give me a leg up. He just stood there as quiet as baby! Backed him under saddle...
Thankyou very much for your kind words, but please don't feel you have to knock yourself down to make me feel better! I'm sure you are stuck to that saddle like glue
If being a grumpy old fart means he's in pain, then i'm surprised my grandad can even walk! lol
No, thankyou for your concern, but he's always been grumpy! Its just him......he was worse when he was in training and racefit. But they are worse when they're fitter aren't they!
Oh and upon...
I seem to have jumped a bit ahead myself I see. I apologise if my reaction was unfounded I guess some replies just read a bit harsher than they were intended
And yes, hopefully as he gets more confident we shall progress. Although obviously its more me that needs to learn also! I shall...
Oh god know, not looking for fluffiness as you put it. Don't get me wrong, I know i'm crap and he's learning.
Thankyou for your kind words though, you seem like a lovely person
I guess i'm just a more of a look to the positives kinda person than straight to, and only, the negatives.
wow! People on here don't mince their words do they??
For what its worth, he finished racing because he didn't like jumping anymore, so its all about building his confidence. I've never really done much of this so we're both learning together. Also, if I was going to put pictures up of us...
He is a photo of my ex-racer i'm currently re-schooling. He's a fab jumper, v. careful and didn't touch a single one. His flatwork his also improving greatly!
(Ignore me though! lol I know i'm sat waaayyy too far forward!! )
More photo's to come
Right well here goes....
