Today I took a lesson at the riding school that's part of San Domenico. They are a Hunter/Jumper school which is a little different than the Dressage riding that I'm trained in. The principles are essentially the same, but the rider is positioned a little differently on the horse. Wow, was it tough! And here I thought I was in decent shape after all the pilates, running and hiking I've been doing lately. Nothing attacks those leg muscles the same way as horseback riding, especially when you spend half the lesson holding yourself elevated out of the saddle in two point! Thank you, Kiwi, for being so very patient with me!
