This is good for balance and confidence, and besides, it’s fun!!
You must have a helper to hold your pony and watch out for you while you are learning this exercise. When you can go “around the world” using your hands, try it “no hands” with your arms folded. You can have “around the world” races just like these two sister did!
Be careful not to kick your horse when you’re doing this! This is so popular with the kids. They also love to go “half way around the world” and then have an instructor leading the horse with them riding backwards! Have them do that with their eyes closed for a really neat perspective on riding!!
