Welcome to the 🇺🇸, Jaxon del Ray! . Huge thank you to @equijet for getting him across the pond and dealing with my high anxiety in such a professional and compassionate manner. Thank you to @lombardosporthorses for having the horse that finally caught my eye for my next dressage partner to bring along behind #hagrid . I think I'm emotionally spent for the next few days. 🤯🤯🤯 . #sociallyawkwardSam  #dressagelifter #ionlyliftsoicanridebetter #evolvetoexcel #fittoride #dressagetrainer #dressage #dressagerider #horseshow #dressageshow #kwpn #dutchredneck #jaxondelray #teamwool #countysaddlery #whyirideinacounty #teamee #enviroequine #enviroequineandpet #dragonbalancebodywork #ryaneddlemanfarrierservice #evansequine (at Gallifrey Farm, LLC.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRZYuQqJb_H/?utm_medium=tumblr

Home again. Home again. Jiggity jig. . Too tired to go on but we made it home. Hagrid and Cali get a well deserved two days off for all the hard travel and work. You earned it, boys! As for me: there is still plenty 🐎 that need to work tomorrow. 😴😴😴 . #sociallyawkwardSam  #dressagelifter #ionlyliftsoicanhalfhaltdraftcrosses #evolvetoexcel #GRITBarbell #fittoride #dressagetrainer #dressage #dressagerider #horseshow #dressageshow #dressagedraft #draftcrossesofinstagram #draftcross #babygiant #hagrid #teamwool #countysaddlery #whyirideinacounty #teamee #enviroequine #enviroequineandpet #dragonbalancebodywork #ryaneddlemanfarrierservice #evansequine #nofilterneeded (at Shannondale Farm) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQpDIZ2JmD1/?utm_medium=tumblr

Sometimes I am my own worst client. . Two weeks ago on Thursday I had a fabulous breakthrough in my feel and with my seat and had been really focusing on that feeling from Hagrid again versus HOW I got it in the first place. Naturally, it fizzled out around last Wednesday and I haven't felt it since . As I'm watching the @getpivo video and writing about what I felt/did in my @theequestrianjournal I had a mental breakthrough: I am over riding him in an effort to force that feeling back. After I wrote that sentence down my body relaxed as if I just took a deep breath. Wow. Okay, yeah. I am doing just that and I would not have noticed unless I actively reflected on that ride and watched yet another daily I really didn't want to. Now I have my priorities in line again: check yourself, before you wreck the ride yourself. . #sociallyawkwardSam  #dressagelifter #ionlyliftsoicanhalfhaltdraftcrosses #evolvetoexcel #GRITBarbell #fittoride #dressagetrainer #dressage #dressagerider #horseshow #dressageshow #dressagedraft #draftcrossesofinstagram #draftcross #babygiant #hagrid #teamwool #countysaddlery #whyirideinacounty #teamee #enviroequine #enviroequineandpet #dragonbalancebodywork #ryaneddlemanfarrierservice #evansequine (at Gallifrey Farm, LLC.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQHOTgcpCST/?utm_medium=tumblr

Some @surefootequine fun in the barn aisle before our work session today. . I love how relaxed #hagrid is on these and that he isn't scared of his body in motion. He stabilizes himself and chews happily with his head and neck at rest and reaching for ground on top of the pads! . #sociallyawkwardSam  #dressagelifter #ionlyliftsoicanhalfhaltdraftcrosses #evolvetoexcel #fittoride #dressagetrainer #dressage #dressagerider #horseshow #dressageshow #dressagedraft #draftcrossesofinstagram #draftcross #babygiant #hagrid #teamwool #countysaddlery #whyirideinacounty #teamee #enviroequine #enviroequineandpet #dragonbalancebodywork #ryaneddlemanfarrierservice #evansequine (at Gallifrey Farm, LLC.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP33HjYJx0U/?utm_medium=tumblr

Make the time. . Running late today but the gym is just as important as every horse I sit on and every class I teach. I didn't have enough time to change between the two so here's a shoulder/arm workout in my #rootd . #sociallyawkwardSam  #dressagelifter #ionlyliftsoicanhalfhaltdraftcrosses #evolvetoexcel #fittoride #dressagetrainer #dressage #dressagerider #horseshow #dressageshow #dressagedraft#dressagetrainer #dressage #dressagerider #beltbelly #powerlifting #girlswhopowerlift #rebuildit  #copperfairy #capo (at 24/7 Fitness at Blackcreek) https://www.instagram.com/p/COQbVXupWZ6/?igshid=1velzl0fpkxlc
