Tripped!!

edited October 2012 in General Discussion
I had my third english lesson today! Ive been riding this 17.3 hh sorrel saddlebred and doing dressage work on him. We were finally getting ready to canter and my instructor told me to pick up a canter at the A. Well i am TWO strides from the A and poor Stardust trips and falls down. He's only and trips every once in a while so i just assumed he was tripping really badly until i realize the ground is right by my feet... I get off the poor guy. He hit his nose in the dirt and busted his lip open. It was crazy! Apparently i had a nice calm seat throughout it though. So i got to start my jumping lessons early. Two point is going to KILL me. That is all.<br><br><img src="http://i45.tinypic.com/30mlkjr.jpg"; alt="http://i45.tinypic.com/30mlkjr.jpg"; class="bb-image" />

    At least he's okay :)<br><br>yay for jumping! :D<br><br>Two point isn't so bad once you build up the muscles ^.^ <br>When you start cantering ask your trainer if they can maybe teach you how to do a half seat at a canter to build up the muscles. If your trainer is willing to work with you in a half seat on a lunge line, that will also help a ton!<br><br>Let me know if you need tips or anything!
