Kit had her third day of lessons. She did very well. The day before she received a new pair of breaches in the mail from her grandmother. She was very excited. When she put them on she thought they were comfortable, but she was not used to the seam in the seat. Her instructor has been helping her with trotting and getting comfortable in the saddle. In this lesson she introduced the idea of cantering. Kit didn't know what the horse would look like in a canter. Instead of having Kit canter she lunged the horse to a canter. I like that the instructor is watching to see that she is gripping with her legs enough to go to the next step and that she introduced the idea to Kit before so the idea will sink in.
