Second jumping lesson for Breeze

We start with some pole work, Breeze is doing well and carefully. Then one cross :

And to finish we have a one stride double to teach her jumping in canter:

She had a few poles down but in the end as you can see she jumped really well for only a second time :)

CATTON PARK OPEN NOVICE 19/06/11

A good event with my mare, dressage could have been better but still ok, good show-jumping with one down ( a bit undeserved!) and good clear cross country. A good preparation for Hutton CIC*!

Chicco, Connemara pony, 7 year-old.

Chicco is a Connemara pony, 7 year-old, I found him specially for one of my clients' daughter. He has a great jump but hadn't been schooled properly until I start the work with him. He's starting to work on the bit in the three paces, is improving for the bend and responsiveness to the aids. I also teach his young owner with him.

Me and Chicco

One happy girl and her pony :)

This is now a video of a jumping training :



Breeze at work

On this video, Breeze is warming-up in walk, trot, canter. She was baked this winter and is improving with consistency, starting to accept a nice even contact with the bit, bending around inner leg, responding to basic aids... She's a nice 4-year-old Irish Sport Horse, 16h2, very athletic, I'm looking forward to starting jumping.
