My lessons focus mainly on conducting yourself and riding safely. There are always risks when riding a horse no matter how tame or broke the horse is. They are still horses and are effected by their environment. I have written some of my antics in this blog. The main reason I did this is to show that I was always at fault when I was hurt through something I did or did not do correctly.
