I started horseback riding lessons!
As a kid, one of my friends had horses and we used to ride all the time after school. We rode all the time, but since we were kids just messing around, I never learned how to properly balance without grabbing the horn, how to position my feet, and just never really learned how to do it right.
Recently I came across a girl who teaches lessons for $35 a lesson, and it was too good of an opportunity to pass up. My inner child is so happy right now, even only after two lessons. I can’t wait to keep going 🥰

Horseback riding is not just a childhood memory for many; it's a path to healing and personal growth. It involves various skills such as balance, coordination, and communication with the horse. With a range of benefits from physical fitness to mental well-being, horseback riding promotes therapeutic connections between riders and their equine partners. Riding lessons provide structured learning, where beginners can build confidence and learn essential riding techniques to ensure safety and proficiency. As you embark on your horseback riding journey, consider starting with basic ground training before moving to riding. Be open to the lessons from both the horse and experienced instructors, which can elevate your skills and deepen your bond with these magnificent animals. Whether you wish to pursue riding as a hobby or aim for competitive sports, the journey can be incredibly rewarding!
