glenatronOur last day began with some liberty riding- we rode Riley in the round pen with no bridle or halter while Ross moved him along. This worked a little like a lunge lesson, except with more in the way of sharp turns. This is a pretty good exercise for focusing on your own seat and feeling the horse underneath you.
In the afternoon we took the ponies out to ride around some different areas of the property. It was nice to just take the ponies some different places and try riding out there. They were a little less confident out in the more distant areas of the farm and we got to work on helping them to feel less rushy, using the same bend and release approach that we used on previous days. It was a nice way to round off a really enjoyable visit.
Tomorrow we are on our way back towards Sydney and before we know it we'll be making for home again.
