Haven't posted in a while, but that's because it feels like I've been trying to learn the same things lately.
Get a good rhythm before the jumps through half-halts.
Give good release all the way through landing.
Sit up, leg on to keep him straight after the jump.
That last one still eludes me. I guess I'm just not organized after a jump yet to pull it off.
And I've been riding a horse with a hard mouth so when I got on a horse who was opposite, I was pulling too much on his mouth. He was feeling good and breaking into a canter and I wasn't gently enough bringing him back. It was bad. I ended up switching with another student who had more experience with him.
Maybe winter is all about shaking out those lingering issues.
