Our February Challenge is to draw a heart… going forwards and while backing! Because we love our horses to the moon and back!
Beginners: Walk into and through #1 and #2. Then out and around to come down through #3 and out through #1. Turn horse around to face #1. Then step into #1 and back all the way out.
Intermediate: Walk into and through #1 and #2. Then out and around to come down through #3 and out through #1. Turn horse around to face #1. Step into #1 and through #2. Then back all the way out of #2 and #1 the same way you walked in.
Advance: Step into #1 and through #2. Step to the right to step into #3 and end in #1 facing down. Then back your horse the way you walked through…back up through #1 and into and through #3. Then back them around and into #2 and on through into #1. Rider and horse should face the same way they began.
Reminder: If your student is ready to advance to their next level, can perform all of the items on their checklist, and read through their workbook please let your instructor know the last lesson of the month. Advancement lesson is the 1st lesson of every month!
Happy riding!
