it may sound silly or insignificant to others, but tonight I had one of those moments where suddenly it all seems to be coming together 
Jensen and I have been training with Milliepops for 8 months now, with intermittent training with Vittoria Panizzon, and sometimes I have despaired of ever making progress......Jensen was a very green baby who was incredibly crooked when we started, and unfortunately I am impatient and want to see tangible results.... as you can guess, this is not a good combination Milliepops has been absolutely amazing at keeping me positive, keeping me focussed and telling me that Jensen IS trying as hard as he can!
This weekend we had a couple of pole work clinics, one with my old instructor and one with a new instructor (Marie Ryan), simply to get J out seeing new places as he tends to hold his breath and be tense at new venues! I got some brilliant trot work and really good canter work in the first clinic, and the BEST canter work Jensen has EVER done in the second clinic..... and tonight, without any help, just Jensen and me playing around in the school at home, we got that canter on both reins
I am over the moon, I really am - I cannot thank my trainers, Milliepops and Vittoria, enough, at the age of 47 I really think I have found my horse who is going to be fun, fun, fun! Sorry, just had to let that out there..... **blushes**...
