So I am off to the UK tomorrow (should be running around as we speak cleaning up the house for the dog sitters, getting money out for the dog sitters, buying a supply of dog food, packing etc etc but I digress!).
Heading for Woodbridge in Suffolk for a two day Hacking with Confidence Clinic with Caroline Putis of Enjoy Riding. I need to knock my riding in open spaces wibble on the head which has been with me since I had the accident 3 years ago....tis long enough it needs to go!
Looking forward to learning some relaxation and visualization techniques so when I do start to wibble I can hopefully control it, the course will be with a small group so am also looking forward to spending a couple of days in the company of other horse loving people, hopefully we can help each other through this. Mornings will be spent learning the techniques and afternoons hacking out putting them into practice.
Husband will be spending a nice couple of quiet days reading his book and trying out the local beer!
We are then off to Kent for 6 days so I can spend a relaxing week with Vardi and get some hacking practice in, have booked a couple of 2 hour hacks with Kelly on one of her schoolmasters and then on Thursday a lesson on Vardi and if I feel good to go a short hours hack on him to follow.
I shall report back when I return....hopefully it will all be a blinding success and I shall be onto "Getting the Love and Exhilaration back" step 2..........a hack down to the forest at a local riding school.
Wish me luck
