Fixing My Bad Showjumping Habits (Lesson vlog)

After a frustrating day at our last showjumping competition, it was time to regroup and get back to basics with Winnie. I headed to Emily Mustow Equestrian for a much-needed lesson, determined to iron out the bad habits that crept in over winter—namely, my tendency to pull to fences! This video is all about progress, as we strip everything back and focus on building confidence and rhythm. Spoiler alert: it’s a total game-changer! By the end of the session, both Winnie and I felt like things had really clicked, leaving us on a high note and excited for what’s next (competition vlog coming soon). If you've ever felt stuck in your training, I hope this video encourages you to take a step back, reassess, and trust the process. Let me know if you’ve had similar breakthroughs with your horses in the comments below. Don’t forget to subscribe for more training updates, and stay tuned for Jam’s turn in the next video!
