What a way to wrap up the end of the week, month, financial year......
2 lessons with our harness coach. Jess out solo, and Jess and Gus out Tandem.
After a rough start to the day and bucket loads of rain, we finally got to Greta to do our lessons, and yes, it rained pretty much the whole day
First up, Jess Solo, as we try, nut out where we fit for some upcoming driven dressage (we haven't done this before but keen to give it ago) we ticked some boxes and were able to get some positive feedback and some homework.
Then wrapped up the day with a Tandem Lesson, and Jess was an absolute superstar out front this time, not a foot out of place, thanks to our homework paying off, so much so we were able to start a little work on fine tuning and plenty of encouragement to do dressage as the Tandem, just not 100% sure if I am that confident yet lol.
It's always good to catch up with my fellow harness club members and share tips and stories of our successes, failures, and learning. Massive thank you to Ally and Margie for making these days happen & Kim for all her patience with me and my ponies.
I am making full use of the fact I have some harness school masters and learning all I can, but the reality is I need a third one to ideally match Jess in work ethic. And possibly a new sulky to give my ponies a bit more room between the shafts.
