Away training with work so finally have the time to put another one together! I'd hoped this one would show our first event and i'd also have our first product review to put up but unfortunately it was cancelled so we have neither!

Ahh so glad I've found a group of people who are also keen bloggers, after much deliberation I've decided to carry on with my carriage-driving blog even though it's probably super boring to everyone but me. Keep an eye out for an extra follower everyone!

Oh lovely Amber - I could watch video of her all day, she has such a beautiful type of movement. Your comment about riding the horse underneath you is so true. It's that old analogy of a sculptor chiselling a statue out of stone... Of course they know what they want it to look like in the whole, but there focus has to be on the detail of each small part they work on.

Thanks, she was really easy to ride that day and felt fab. Long may it last!! I love the sculpture analogy. Not heard that before.

Very interesting blog on rehab. Lots to think about there.... My RI says I give away contact and 'abandon' Amber so that was very useful to read. Thank-you!

Good luck with them both.
 
My blog is maxthewelshie.blogspot.co.uk

It'll have more content when we start getting out and about this summer, but so far it tracks our progress in our jumping mainly.
 
Great update... Please don't send her to that trainer! That was a perfectly ghastly thing to say to someone on the back of a one off lesson :(

Amber definitely has something very special about her and I'm a massive fan, but the absolute priority is that she is happy, with competition refinement a secondary concern. What I love about your pics and videos is that she always seems so joyful
 
Loved reading your recent blog posts Ambers Echo. I disagree with the sending her away comment too. Training sessions like you describe are often part and parcel of green horse education, and you can often learn a great deal about your horse and yourself from them. As long as you still feel comfortable and (relatively!) safe riding her when she has her spats, you will become a better partnership and learn to deal with these situations as they arise. Keep plugging on and you will be a better rider for it :D

Hi everyone... This thread has been dead for a while and I know it's not halloween so might not be the time to bring a zombie thread back up, BUT i was wondering if anyone would care to have a look at my new instagram venture:

Instagram: @bodypositiveequestrians

it's an idea i had in the shower and the website like is pretty rubbishy right now but i'm going to ask my super techno website building wiz bloke to help me jazz it up.

I love body positive/mental wellbeing accounts but noticed there was a gap for them in the equestrian world. I love messing around on photoshop and designing. Please have a look :D

Just been and followed. My own issues and self doubt mostly revolve around riding but body hang ups creep in there too. I think they do for all of us. I don't measure myself against famous people but subconsciously do with other riders.
Funny thing the brain....
 
Aaaand another one.
