Happy Post

Bought new horse about 4 years ago.Things went pear shaped.Without wanting to go into too much detail, the people who I had lined up to help me with did not work out and on top of that my husbands health deteriorated.I hardly rode at all for two years.Husband sadly died and I was still looking for the right person to help and the right yard.Eventually I found it! My confidence had taken a nose dive because of the above.New trainer got me going on her mechanical horse which helped me start and build up core strength again.She schools horse for me and has hacked her out and got her fitter.I am just beginning to enjoy my riding again and I had my first mini hack out on her today.Despite being initially nervous I actually enjoyed it.Onwards and upwards.

You have really been through the mill, so it’s lovely to read how much pleasure you had from your mini hack. Onwards and upwards indeed!

 

[Annagain]

Well done. I hope this is the first of many hacks you get to enjoy with your horse.

 

[Tarragon]

Wonderful you have turned things around and gaining confidence again. Onwards and Upwards!

Well done, wonderful that you have found a way through and not just given up as many would have done.

How lovely to hear you enjoyed your hack and that things are taking an upturn, really pleased for you.

 

[cauda equina]

And don't downplay your achievement by calling it a mini hack - a hack's a hack!
I hope you will enjoy all your subsequent hacks just as much

That is wonderful to read; I hope you both have a lovely summer together.

Finding the right instructor can be a job in itself.
