Too much arena work can be boring and..well too much work...for both rider and horse.<br /><br />I admire you, Kacy-kins. You and Wa are sight of pure joy together.

I am still in the great search for a good trainer for the mighty Jackson and I, but I never once stop before going out onto the trail and say, "Darn, I wish I was in the arena..." It is a huge missing piece of our puzzle at this point in time, and needs to be addressed this summer. BUT i loved that quote you posted and would like to read that book! If I take all the time I've spent on hilltops (and then the time almost on our butts coming down them), in streams, trotting into uncharted territory, blazing new trails and just plain riding out, out, out, my horse and I may be further than we think in our abilities! And we sure do like it! Nothing makes me trot better form-wise than when I'm off in a horsie-sun induced daze and just let myself be. It is when I go out of my conscious mind and just ride that I amaze myself! :)jacksonsgrrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09702324347419665816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102014432675371300.post-78764122063701503862009-05-08T17:04:00.000-07:002009-05-08T17:04:00.000-07:00Nothing like a trusted trainer to improve one's co...Nothing like a trusted trainer to improve one's confidence in the saddle and move you and your horse to the next level.

I know it is a good feeling when things (horse, rider and instructor) come together in a harmonic way.<br />It is hard to find a good trainer/instructor and even harder to find the right one for yourself and your horse. <br />A good trainer can be good with horses, he can be amazing in schooling and teaching horses, but challenge is to be able to bring all of the "secrets" over to the rider and student in an understandable way.<br />And every student is different...<br />Well, you get the picture.<br />Don't be too hard on yourself and enjoy the ride...!<br />MichiMichaelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06415854807112777330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102014432675371300.post-50362729006609710942009-05-08T07:15:00.000-07:002009-05-08T07:15:00.000-07:00Awww good post Kacy! I too have the book you speak...Awww good post Kacy! I too have the book you speak of but haven't read it yet. I also have read from many top named trainers that riding on trails is really, really good for the horse. Some people I know only want to ride in an arena, how boring for the horse! I also feel that it does things to their mind to be kept in confinement all the time. I know I would hate it if I couldn't get out of the house and could only look out a window. Horses are met to be out in the open; good for you and your mare. I wish I could get out on trails more like you do. here we don't have many trails close to home that you can get to without a trailer. But we are going to work on getting the horses onto a trailer and on the go. I can't wait!!!<br />So glad you have a trainer that is working out for both of you. In some ways having a very sensitive horse is a good thing because Wa will tell you right away when there is something wrong and can correct it. A horse that takes longer to let you know things are not right you may have a hard time figuring out just what the problem is. Sounds like the two of you are on the right track!<br />Ride on!!!<br />~Jane and Gilly~jane augensteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11053766605374583376noreply@blogger.com
