Jumping lesson yesterday with Trudy - AWESOME.
Not because we were perfect, but because we DID struggle (too much back seat, not enough galloping), we got OVER it and then I found something I didn't have before.
the ability to adjust within 2 strides.
I don't mean just adjust her stride, THAT's easy. But to take us from completely fallen apart to put back together and ready to jump. Used to take us 6-8 strides. Now? two! Reflexes are QUICK now and I'm enjoying that, even with as little time as we've spent jumping as of late.
A totally exhausting lesson, but one very very much worth it :D
