Tuesday - Sephira and I lesson in the dressage field

Yesterday Sephira and I and riding lesson: I was so pleased--first of all that she blew out two separate times during walking before the instructor arrived. Also I could feel her responding to my cueing of gait transitions before I asked and she was just lovely about following my focus so that I only needed reins for some lateral cueing. This is so hugely different from where she was when she came to Rollover! 

Also we used the draw reins to avoid having unproductive negativity over using HQ. She quickly got the idea and I was able to give her slack. I look forward to not needing to use them at all!!

Next, I am looking forward to playing on the ground again today with giving lots of GM cookies to reward releases!!!
