Hello all
My four year old started semi- private lessons late last year and is absolutely full of joy when riding. We had decided on him having lessons once a month to ensure it is something he really wants to do before looking into ownership/loans ect knowing that might come( though he's already making plans of his own lol.) this month we took a decision to go up to two a month as he seems to be progressing well and loves it.
I guess I have two questions I'd like to ask peoples options on; 1st off,is this enough time for him to be riding and see 'progress'? He's so happy on the pony that at the moment he's comfortable with what he's doing and I am not worried about it particularly but I know it's something hes aware of; how hes improving.
The second question is, is it normal to have a different instructor almost every lesson, and is that something to worry About? It's Been many years since I rode as a teenager and when I had lessons it was always the same instructor bar holiday or sickness. The School don't allow you to request a particular instructor which is a shame because there is one in particular that seems to be very good and definitely a favourite, and seems to take genuine delight in their progress.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
