I felt really horrible after my lesson today. :-( I was nervous last night about jumping but then in the morning my nerves calmed down and I was excited about having the group lesson.
Ive had plenty of lessons before but since summer my position has gotten weak and I want to lean forward to much. And im also gripping with the knees so then my heels dont go down all the way. And Gypsy doesnt make it any better because she over jumps and im not prepared for such a big jump.
All my trainer wants us to do is jumping position, grab on the mane and hold on. And we have trot polls and a small little jump so we can take turns going. But thats it. Thats all we've done... I want to jump so bad but im just not getting any where. And it sucks because I see the other girls who doesnt have any problems. But I want more excersizes to do so I can get a better position and stuff.
