I've been giving her a leg up if she's wanted one but a lot of the time she says she wants to get on by herself, then because I tell her I'll give her a leg up she actually hurries up and gets on cos she wants to do it, IYSWIM
She is really improving confidence wise - I gave her a lesson in the 20acre field last week and got her cantering etc. She's also managed to canter out on hacks which has been a big step forward! I'm so pleased with her. She just needs lots of encouragment and support and positive influences and she'll be fine
I'm teaching her tonight so I'll see how she's been doing this week with the mounting issue
I'm very happy with her though - thanks for asking
