Hello! I have some stuff to say. Sorry if im wasting your time. But every lesson my trainer always puts the mounting block a little bit to far under the horse. Which at times tends to make my foot slip and almost makes me fall (could possibly put me in a dangerous position with the horse if i fell) and never corrects me if my heels arent down and if my riding posture isnt correct either. Sometimes i don’t even notice if my posture and heels are in the wrong position. And the barn makes people pay 40 usd for a 30min lesson. (In my opinion that seems slightly overpriced for 30mins) but unfortunately i cant really go to another barn because that’s really the only one near me. I am 13 and don’t really know what to do. Thanks for any help!❤️
