Five Clean Flying Changes
2/9/2012 2:52:14 PM

Ellen and Maxx worked on flying changes today. They did five changes across the diagonal!! All of them were timed right. Sometimes in a flying change one leg isn't in sync with the others or the horse will anticipate and make the decision when to change. That wasn't a problem today.
Ellen's "seat" is getting more and more correct. I used to worry constantly that Maxx would spook and she wouldn't stay on. Now I'm more relaxed. I, also, asked Pat to teach me to ride so I could appreciate what Ellen is doing and learning to do. My perspective has changed.
