Pony questions from someone with little experience.

She's worth her weight as she small and light enough to school small ponies ready for kids to take over.
 
How do you post bareback Jane? I rode a new horse bareback today - whose trot is somewhat bouncier than my old share but it didnt enter my head to rise to it.

Well, how I do it is grip with my knees a little tighter than usual and then just rise as if I was in a saddle. I can't get too far up but if he's trotting fast or big (his trot is normally low and smooth) it's easier than sitting. But very tiring on the quadriceps!

@Wally , that is the grooviest arm sticking out of that Shetland's a*se. Awesome!
