Interested in hearing some other views of what I should do in this situation.
I am currently having one lesson a week at a riding school which really doesn't feel enough for me. I had planned to look into buying but fell pregnant so the timing didn't work out! This is still something I plan to do when LO is a bit older and husband finally gives in and agrees 😅.
The riding school I'm at is a lovely place with an indoor and outdoor arena, good hacking, generally good instructors and generally just a nice atmosphere and somewhere I would hope to be able to keep a horse at in the future. However my issue is with the horses in the riding school and how they are very typical riding school horses. Sometimes they have horses on working livery and I do enjoy lessons then but when it's on the school horses I generally feel deflated and like I'm not really gaining anything from it.
I'm thinking through my options of what to do and I'm thinking
- I just continue with what I'm currently doing which costs me £35 a week.
- Find another riding school but my concern is I'll just have the same issues in a different place.
- Stop riding lessons and put the money saved towards the potential horse fund but I don't want to not ride at all.
Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions? :)
