Can you see the difference? Look how stable her position is. Her eyes are up with her shoulders back. She has a great crest release as well as a perfect leg position. She is nether too forward or falling behind. Notice too, how her position has affected her horse's jumping ability. The better the rider's position, the more scope this horse has. This change took place in a little less than 4 months! How quickly are you progressing with your trainer?
This is a picture of one of our students when she first began riding with trainer, Rachael Adams. As you can see, her position leaves something to be desired. This picture was taken in the Spring of 2004.
Here we have the same horse and rider in the middle of August. Notice the position of the leg, as well as the correct crest release. We've come a long way, but still there are some minor issues with the position.
