'Rupert' - Our First 'Official' Riding Lesson

'Mr F' and I had our first official riding lesson.

Everyone has been mentioning to me this riding instructor named 'Rupert'. 'Lillian' in particular was highly recommending him.

I didn't know what to excpet but was most pleasantly surprised. He is quite a flamboyant and gregarious character with a silly sense of humour which I enjoy. His pays much attention to the relationship between horse and rider. It was a most insightful 30 minutes and I learnt a lot. 'Mr F' behaved very well even though he does not like the menage. Or perhaps it is more a case of him having to do 'boring stuff' with me. 

Homework I gave myself: focus on my balance and posture and also on how I can improve 'Mr F's posture.

I look forward to the next lesson whenever that may be, depending on my tiny budget.
