Although i have had lots of advice not to jump untill tarmi will take poles nicely,however, in my lesson today my instructor let me go in her parelli headcollar again, and tarmi was amazing again, and my instructor put up some jumps, i could not believe how confident i was in a head collar! I know my jumping positon needs work, by my instructor said it will progress the more i do. I did not know where to put this, as i seem to be clogging the forum up with my junk lol! Sorry no music, and photobucket says i claim copyright...Enjoy (jumping at the end) **WARNING*** tiny jumps  But go 2 get used 2 the jmup changing, but the same height, and me riding each one the same.  |

wow she is such a sweetie. It is intereting with no bit how she really put her nose forward towards the jump and then drops her head naturally as she jumps. I guess with a bit in she would be asking for her head in the stretched out position? Certainly looks v happy pony!

Yes! thatcould be why i was stuggling! And she kind of (on the flat) has her own natural outline, instead of me holding her into one, can not beleive how much i rely on my hands with a bridle!!

It is so nice that she doesn't want to run off with you and you trust her and yes she finds her own balance, lovely.

what a difference in a horse! she looks so much more relaxed and happy- I know I said dont jump yet but as she is so steady coming in to them and they are barely off the ground I forgive you!
You also look softer through your leg and hips than in the last video- well done it was a brave step but one that worked well.

Thanks Maximum, i know what you mean, she deos look alot happier, and tends not to rush into anything thats put infront of her, when she rished into jmups, it may of been me being wayy to strong with my hands, making her pull on me? I'm definitly looking into a Dr Cooks bitless bride, as would well worth it!

She looks a different pony, much happier and more relaxed. I know it's no good for your showing but she certainly, going by that vid anyhow, looks happier bitless and for a strong pony who sometimes needs a gag etc is very steady/calm and not fighting you at all.
I think your pony may have spoken about her tack preferences?

what a difference, she is responding really well to your seat and legs there, and looks so much more relaxed
