Hi all,
Im 35yrs old, have wanted to horse ride forever, but never did. Now I am!!
Ive had 20 half hour lessons, and Im still absolute rubbish. Ive now become so frustrated that I have stopped enjoying my lessons and today... there was tears!!!
I had 1 lunge lesson, then learnt to trot, which I can do sometimes, and not others. I have had no training on riding basics, so dont really know what Im doing to be honest.
I have had a couple of lessons where I have trotted for ages, very well, turned the horse etc.... I thought I had it! Then I couldnt do it again. I now cant seem to even get the horses moving.
Ive had 4 instuctors in that 20 lessons, so I dont think that helps.
The last 2 lessons have been a total disaster. I cant move or control the horses at all. I tried 3, and I cant do anything.
What can I do??? Is there something fundamentally wrong or am I not cut out for horses?
My lesson was at 11am today, - its now 7pm and Im still upset! xx
