    How do i get a horse to like me?

    Also, when i first rode Alice i really had to kick her to move and she wouldn't turn or stop, and would drag me to the nearest haynet. Now she goes on command, we can weave through cones with ease and stops, she still drags me to a haynet though

    How do i get a horse to like me?

    As i said, i work there on Saturdays from the morning till the evening, i sometimes put up her net or put her rug on,i know she likes the massage brush so i use that on her. Also if her hay net is almost empty and she is trying to get some out, i just take the rest out and she eats it from my hand.

    What riding level am i?

    I am in London, its just i say the stuff in all the ways because i research on English and American sites. I sometimes say fields. I don't know why i call it a barn as its a outdoor yard. Posting trot, rising trot, its not really any different its just different ways of saying the same thing.

    What riding level am i?

    Don't know why its so cheap, its not central london which is about £90 for a lesson. The first riding school was £7 for half an hour, i do understand their reason as they are a charity.
