Hey everyone, just got back from a weekend at the stables and I have to say, there's nothing quite like the bond between you and your horse. Spent a lot of time working on transitions and it's amazing to see the progress when you both get into the rhythm. For those of you thinking about getting into riding, it's not just about the physical part—it's a mental game too. You learn patience, trust, and communication in a way that really translates into everyday life. Anyone else have any riding stories or tips to share? Would love to hear them.
