this ISNT MY question its for my friend who doesnt have an account. this is what she has wrote:

and please dont say if you have to ask your a beginner, its for joining pony club. ive rode for 3 years rode many horses from 4 year old newly brokens to 25 year olds. ive handled bucks, shys and basically a variety of spooks. i know how to care for them and everything like that. walk trot canter and gallop with control. walk trot and canter bareback (havent tried gallop) can jump around 30 cm as im just starting out jumping on my horse but have jumped horses 1.5 metres but my own horse has never jumped so im training her ( shes only young). i know my diaganols and leads, halts half halts, leg yielding etc.
have a handful of falls. hack out fine. done cross country for fun, learning dressage. never competed as havent wanted to but am going to start in june. i can handle strong horses although sometimes struggle when in open fields with very strong horses. dont realy on my reins much either. at the moment have a very strong horse. so help please, please give me a truthful answer


thanks for answering my friends questions:)
 
Is your friend asking what level of rider they would be classed as?
Of so I don't know the pony club terms bit for a riding school it sound as though intermediate.
Does he/she know how to make the horse work in the correct frame? Also how old? They sound quite level graded, and its refreshing to hear someone sound quite truthful in their description.
 
thanks and shes a 15 nearly 16 year old girl. although mature for her age. yep shes asking what level for example beginner, novice, intermediate etc. she can handle horses well she seems to connect with them whilst riding. her current horse has such a strong bond with her its unreal.
 
thanks. she isnt currently taking lessons but has a previous instructor from around a month ago and is going to start taking lessonss again ( i think). so ill get her to ask one of them
