Rode an old western trained mare today. She’s a sweet, slightly grouchy very experienced mare who can go western or english, and is great for beginners. I mostly schooled her today, and worked on striding (lengthening and shortening), and cantering on the right lead (as she mostly only does left in lessons). She also bulges in with her rib cage sometimes, so i worked on pushing her out and making her round. She was very sweet and I know that she learned something too. 🙂
