July 18th 2020: Shane and I are back in action after 4 months off because of COVID!Riding again felt amazing! It was a pretty great ride all things considered! I’ve lost some of my core and I started leaning back in the saddle because of fatigue again. I’m a little frustrated because of it but I know I’m going to work back up to where I was. We just focused on transitioning from walk to halt and getting him to walk with intention, and then went on a short trail ride around property. Shane was a good boy even though getting him to walk on in the heat took a lot of my energy. I’m really proud of Shaners for listening so well and I gave him lots of pats. ♥️😊🐴. . #horse #horses #equine #equines #equestrian #paraequestrian #dressage #paradressage #paradressagerider #therapeuticriding #equineassistedtherapy #therapyhorse #therapyhorses #usef #adultamateur #adultammy #teamcaf #grade1paraequestrian #shane #goodboy #americanpainthorse #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #thefutureisbright #workinghard #chasingdreams #strongereveryday #cerebralpalsy #disabledbutnotreally #breakingbarriers (at Quantum Leap Farm, Inc.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCyoihiHblr/?igshid=1fm09ngu9jfrs

Oct 10th 2020: Griffin did a great job practicing the dressage test I’ve been working on today. Mrs Edie said he licked and chewed every time we halted on centerline which I think is just adorable. I didn’t get any video of us riding the test but there’s a short video me taking him back to the ramp to dismount. This was only my second time riding him and I’m so happy with how we are working together! I still have some things to work on with my seat and hands but I feel like I’m getting better all the time 😊❤️🐴 . #horse #horses #horsesofinstagram #equne #equines #equestrian #dressage #paradressage #usef #adultamateur #teamcaf #therapeuticriding #equineassistedtherapy #therapyhorse #therapyhorses #griffin #quarterhorsecross #goodboy #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #thefutureisbright #chasingdreams #breakingbarriers #strongereveryday #strongertogether #aspiringparalympian #cp #cerebralpalsy #disabledbutnotreally (at Quantum Leap Farm, Inc.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGK9KnUHHqX/?igshid=150ovk8zesouj

Sept 26, 2020: I had lots of exciting things happen today! My friend Alyssa, @alcequine, is visiting Florida and she came to watch my lesson! She’s a Grade 3 para rider and amputee who is currently leasing an Arabian named Andy. He’s super cute and they look so good together! I hope you had fun Alyssa, it was great having you! We should definitely catch up more! Also, I got to ride a new pony today! His name is Griffin and he loves to go! He was a little hunter boy before coming to Quantum 😊I had such an easy time riding him and he was happy and ready to go the whole time! I did a simple dressage test with him and he did great! Can’t wait to try him out again! Good boy buddy! . #horses #horse #horsesofinstagram #equine #equines #equestrian #paraequestrian #paradressage #dressage #paradressagerider #therapyhorse #therapyhorses #equineassistedtherapy #griffin #goodboy #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #friends #friend #friendship #usef #adultamateur #teamcaf #chasingdreams #strongereveryday #breakingbarriers #disabledbutnotreally #cp #cerebralpalsy #aspiringparalympian https://www.instagram.com/p/CFm1sBkHsU-/?igshid=zbhk5ltht5a7

July 24th 2020: “You are half of our gifts. I the other. Together we make a whole. Together we are much more powerful.”- Joss Stirling. These are professional photos from my lesson last Friday. I was going to work on a dressage test but my usual instructor, Ashley, couldn’t come so Shane and I just had another relaxing lesson. Jane, the instructor that owns Emmaline, the mare I was thinking about leasing, came to watch me ride! Shane was so distracted by the camera and kept stopping whenever he saw it 😂 He still did really well though, and I’m happy with what we did that day. Love you Shaners 😊❤️🐴. . #horse #horses #horsesofinstagram #equine #equines #equestrian #paraequestrian #dressage #paradressage #usef #adultamateur #teamcaf #equineassistedtherapy #therapeuticriding #therapyhorse #therapyhorses #shane #americanpainthorse #goodboy #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #thefutureisbright #strongereveryday #aspiringparalympian #breakingbarriers #cerebralpalsy #disabledbutnotreally (at Quantum Leap Farm, Inc.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDROxh1nog6/?igshid=fbi53u4ds2y5
