Had a lesson today with Mandy Lawrence today on one of her horses.
She specialises in body sculpting and getting you sitting correctly in order to help the horse perform correctly.
It was really interesting listening to her and although only a short lunge lesson I learnt an awful lot.
I can not remember ever having a lesson on the lunge before but it was actually really beneficial for both of us. It was to allow her to assess my riding and look at what she needs to concentrate on.
I had hoped on having some lessons with her before cracking on with my youngster next year, unfortunatly with a 100 mile round trip to get there I won't be going too often!!
She is coming to me in a couple of weeks to give me some tips and advice with my youngser which will be really interesting.
Here are some piccies of my lesson today:-
before the sculpting
She then manipulated my legs
and got me sitting correctly
I still was looking down though.....such a bad habbit!!!
I really could feel how differently I was sitting by the end of the lesson. I could have actually got my stirrups down a good hole or two!!
