Leah's First Show

Sorry about the poor videography... I was so busy trying to actually watch her I sometimes forgot to watch the camera.

It being her first show we were a little unsure of exactly what Leah was to do for this round. Her first round on the horse was her compulsories round which consists of a set of required moves in a required order. The video shows her freestyle. This is where we were somewhat unprepared for what Leah was expected/allowed to do and for some reason forgot to make sure we clarified that at the last lesson. So, while snuggling in bed this morning we came up with a routine based on moves she wanted to do (the stand being her favorite!) and, my error, I thought she was only allowed 7. She actually was allowed a full minute for her round and so she could have added a few moves back in to make it flow a little better from move to move. Oh well, she had a tonne of fun and it was all about the learning experience anyway. Next time we'll know better.

Lots of fun! A special thank you to Nana Lynn who introduced Leah to this special sport and taught her so much of what Leah knows and to Mrs. Barb who now keeps Leah coming!
