Confessions of a Struggling Dressage Rider. How an adult rider manages it all. Activate the Hind Legs with Bugs! July 28, 2013 in dressage. Ugh, it’s another hot, humid day.

Kelly & Dexter's Lessons: Sit Back.... Relax.

Kelly and Dexters Lessons. Monday, January 10, 2011. Sit Back. Relax. Ok, so there was snow on Sunday, but I was proactive enough to change my lesson to Saturday so we still got to ride. It was a short lesson and we seemed to focus mostly me this time. Oooh! And we got to leg yield. So Dexter may have some easy rides this week where we just trot around while I remember to lean back and relax. Dexter did really well at the leg yielding, we weren't crossing any arenas or anything, but we were getting a few...
