Wow I have a lot of catch up to do. Been trying saddles like nobody's business, and I sold my saddle already! The weather has been crappy so riding is mostly just walking around anxiously and trying not to die.
Anyways, my boss gave me a B&N gift card for funsies so I did a little shopping! I have one more book on the way, "How Good Riders Get Good". I saw how much use L @ Viva Carlos got from her readings so decided to jump in. The book by Janet Foy I bought because I remember someone (Emma?) talking about wanting to clinic with her so I figured why not.
Yay books! I also got a mug that says "Life the Life You Imagined" because that's what I need to start doing. Hopefully after studying tonight I should be able to write up more blog posts about what is going on in crazy land.
"How Good Riders Get Good" is a really great book, one that you can read over and over! Hope you enjoy it :)
ReplyDeleteGreat choice in books! I am contemplating the 101 Dressage Exercises myself! You should write a review with pictures :)
ReplyDeleteLove "How Good Riders Get Good"!
ReplyDeleteLove the 101 Arena Exercises! I'm dying to read the Dressage for the... I'll probably grab it for myself for my birthday.
ReplyDeleteexcellent choices - i've heard great things about Janet Foy and am looking forward to attending her clinic (as an auditor) sometime this spring!
ReplyDeleteOoo, you snagged some great stuff!
ReplyDeleteJec Ballou actually trains not too far from where I teach... I'm sort of curious about hauling to her for a lesson, but haven't reached out yet. I love her books, but I've heard mixed things about her teaching.
