Hi, so I've started learning to ride, had a few lessons. It's much harder than I thought it would be and doesn't come instinctively to me at all. I keep using the rein when I should be using my feet. Hopefully it will start to fall into place!
But my question is how do I build a relationship with the horse? I know that might sound silly cos it's obvious but I guess I just feel a bit nervous? I've ridden the same horse and he's lovely, quite old, I talk to him and praise, anything else?
