i was lucky enough to get a space in a lesson with lucinda green on thursday and just thought id give a quick report incase anyone else is thinking about booking one!
having booked a space i thought id 'google' general reviews and they were a bit along the lines of 'if your pony is good, youll be fine' which, seeing as i was taking ex-racer who has only hunted and hadnt seen coloured poles was a bit daunting!
however she was brilliant! as subtle as a brick when it came to telling you how it should be done/what you did wrong etc but as i cant stand being told im fabulous when im far from it i really appreciated her approach!
it was a simulated xc lesson so more poles than you could shake a stick at, barrels/corners/bounces and impossible angles. all explained for dummies :) big m really stepped up and she thought he was very sweet (read 'very relaxed and dim')
if you get the chance do go for it!
only managed one very blurry still from camera
 
Glad you enjoyed it! She's one of the best XC riders there's ever been IMO, succeeding on such a variety of different types of horse. You're dead right....she's never minced her words and doesn't suffer fools gladly! :) However, like you, I would always someone rather tell it as it is rather than keep taking my money and making me feel great with various platitudes.
 
Really glad you had a good experience :) I've been to two of her clinics now and wouldn't go again, I admire her hugely and think she is a fantastic XC rider but she had definite 'favourites' at both clinics I went to and if you weren't one of those then you didn't really get much out of it at all :(

I also love her direct style :D
