I plan on posting pictures and video as soon as I find a charger for my camera ( lost mine have to find a new one). I am starting from square one because I found alot of what I had been taught was wrong, and had created habits that were not only inhibiting my riding ( and Solo's position), but also created long-term body issues ( an old knee injury flared up and never went down some 4-5 months ago, and my lower back went really bad because her big thing was that I needed to hallow out my lower back).
I want to be absolutely the best rider I can be, and so I am determined to do what I can to fix all my problems and create the best horse and rider pair around! Yes, it sounds stupid and childish, but why not aim for your absolute best?
I have no trainer and cannot afford one. So I need you guys to help me. I realize that asking for help from everyone is a good thing, but you get so many conflicting thoughts on the same thing, sometimes, that I would like one consistant "coach".
Those that are interested in seriously "coaching" me online consitantly- as often as every other day, possibly- please give me a "test drive" critique on some old pictures, so I can see who I would learn best from.
I am determined, and though I am slow to learn thing physically, I will give my very best! My goal is to get into Hunters and Show Jumping eventually. I am 19 years old. Solo is my 5 year old Arab/Quarter cross. He is very green, so please tell me not only what you want me to do, but what you would want me to do to help HIM improve as well. Detailed answers, please! Illustrations and example visuals would help as well.
I know you can't tell too much from these two pictures, but they are the only ones I have right now. And if you can help me from these, I knw you're what I'm looking for!
Thanks!!
