Lunge lessons and other ways to improve position



During the 2nd jumping lesson the riders in one group had to cross their stirrups then put their feet in the irons and (they were supposed to) trot & canter around; it seemed to take some time for the riders to even be able to stand up so Mr Vreden, the director of the school had to give a demonstration.
Today there was a lunge lesson for everyone & those who weren't riding had several other skills to master including the good old hula hoop, juggling and sitting on various unstable platforms.
Holly, Rhiannon & Beth were able to take things one step further & manage to move the ball with all three of them riding together. Mr Vreden also joined in some of exercises.

There was much laughter and plenty of fun during this session.
