The Lessons Got Harder

I was still sore from the trail ride on Monday and I didn't realize how weak my lower legs were until I got on Bouffe and squeezed my legs to apply the aids. Trecie really stepped up the lesson and began teaching me dressage. 

There was so much to remember, squeeze with the inside leg, squeeze with the outside leg, jiggle the reins to get Bouffe to lower his head, sit up straighter. I was able to do what she asked but my legs were weak. Bouffe was doing fine, but I didn't have the confidence I had during and after the first lesson. This was going to be hard work!
