Anyone ride with him? He’s visiting to clinic on the xc course near us which he designed. I’m a green bean on xc as is my mare. She’s normally very brave o/f in the arena but we did our first xc and she had some green moments. I’m now trying to decide if I want to push on with my slot at the clinic or let my trainer take my starter spot with my mare or one of her green beans.
I’m pretty good at sticking up for me and my mare and what feels safe for us – but I also don’t love having to assert myself and certainly not paying for the pleasure!
