JBs Riding Circle

Be patient with your kids. Let them learn at their own pace. Let them get yelled at and grow a little tough skin. Let them learn hard work and responsibility. Let them know that just because they love something doesn’t mean it’ll come easy.

Liz has made leaps and bounds riding wise since starting with me at the beginning of 2022. She is a fearless rider and is always ready to try something new, but she had to get rid of some bad habits she developed. She went from crying when tacking up because she wanted someone to do it for her to now helping any other kid that’s around get everything they’re supposed to done. She used to get so upset when I’d yell at her during lessons to realizing that’s just how it goes and I only yell when necessary (some days is more than others😅). Her and Thunder did so amazing on Liz’s first weekend of ever competing. She competed when I felt she was ready and most importantly when she felt she was ready.
They ran a 28 together. Not bad for a newbie racer and old man horse. 🐴
