I think you should also have fun while riding. It isnt about setting a goal saying ‘I’m going to be at a certain level come march’, just do it because it’s fun. And don’t listen to people’s comments unless they are helpful to you. This is a great hobby to pick up and I wish you GL.

Don't psyche yourself out. Don't think about your fear (as you know, it communicates to the horse). Be an actress of fearlessness. 2. Start slow to regain confidence.

I wish my mom was as understanding about my love of horses. Just a little tip, when you are going over the jump give the horse his head.
