Horseback Riding Lessons for Reagan

Reagan and Kennedy both love horses! I checked into horseback riding lessons for Reagan a year ago but learned she was really too young and small. She's still a bit young to be taking lessons this year but I have an old school friend in Tennessee who was willing to try and give her a few lessons. As it turned out she did an awesome job! We'll be taking a few more lessons in Tennessee this summer and we hope we'll be able to find a barn up here who will be willing to work with Reagan this Fall.

During her first lesson she rode a horse named Peaches.Reagan did a great job of getting the horse to go where she directed. She seemed like a natural!Grammy came along to watch with Jackson while Kennedy stayed home with Grand-Dad (we were afraid Kennedy would be sad she couldn't ride the horses). Grammy came because Reagan's instructor was also an old student of Grammy's and it had been quite a while since they had seen each other.Ms. Becky helping Reagan dismountReagan had to help take care of the horse after her lesson as wellHer second lesson she learned to trot. Because of this, she changed horses because Ms. Becky said this horse, Chevy, had a smoother more gentle trot.During her third lesson Reagan continued to learn how to direct the horse as well as trot. Reagan had been watching some older students jump before her lesson began and wanted to know when she would get to jump. Ms. Becky told her she would have to learn how to ride a horse quite a bit faster before jumping. In the meantime she let Reagan practice doing a "two-point" while walking over the posts which is what you would do for a jump. This basically entails leaning forward over the horses neck and standing up in the stirrups and then sitting back down (or that's my novice explanation of it anyway :).Back to working on trottingChecking and cleaning the horses feet after the lessonThank you so much Ms. Becky for letting Reagan come and take some lessons at Tightfit Farm!
