I like them much more for jumping though because I find there that watching other people and what they do helps me learn. But dressage is a solo sport.Olivia @ DIY Horse Ownershiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16138490796669110523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8381378815481359587.post-82939564290650203652017-07-06T13:42:31.717-07:002017-07-06T13:42:31.717-07:00That is tough.

I know my old trainer was very good at insuring that those of us who rode at a higher level still got the most out of our lessons even in mixed company. I hope that getting out there with a more competitive trainer gives you that feeling you craveL.Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05052638724440787772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8381378815481359587.post-4637852768658933822017-07-05T19:53:54.795-07:002017-07-05T19:53:54.795-07:00Honestly wishing you the best of luck! Having your...Honestly wishing you the best of luck! Having your own transportation definitely helps give you some autonomy. If Miss Howard is willing to watch videos of your solo rides, that can also help you progress and prevent bad habits from developing. At the end of the day, you should be in a program that works for you. No shame in making changes :)T. A.

I have found that shipping out for lessons with trainers (yes plural) of my choice has worked very well for me, as a rider who also has not fit in well with the "programs" available at my barn base. But I still need to board close to home. The trailer solution has worked well for me and been sustainable for about three years so far. Wishing you similar luck in kicking up your training program!!emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686949099663199382noreply@blogger.com
