As a typical young, horse crazy girl, she took every opportunity she could to ride, learn, and experience the world of horses and animal care. She was fortunate enough to be able to develop her feel thru the “tough” horses; Shetland ponies, young colts, and the like. Most of the time we rode bareback or “made” tack fit… safely for the horse of course. We rode thru deep snow, rough trails, and jumped homemade obstacles. At the time she was just enamored because she got to ride, but looking back now it truly was a blessing in many ways as it really developed a natural seat and balance and feel for the horse that I don’t believe can be learned as well in the traditional way, not that it can’t by any means but let’s face it if you can learn to effectively stay on a naughty, tight, bucking Shetland and continue the lesson you develop quite the balance.
