Shawn, reading your post about the broken finger brought to mind my "horse" injury concerning broken bones. About 3 years ago I was holding my horse by the halter ( a mistake). He spooked at some birds (!) and spooked into my hand. I felt my ring finger flatten against his head. There wasn't...

I saw it this morning, it was pretty good. :) I think the program will give people an insight into how difficult the world of riding dressage actually is. I failed to understand why the camera work when they were giving lessons was so disconnected to what was actually going on. Editing I guess. It's...

I think it's great we have a place to post where we all know the majority of us are "50 Plus"! But the youngsters are very smart and willing to share what they know, I've learned so much since I found this forum a couple of years ago. I have been around horses since I was very young...

I was wondering how many people on this site are over 50 and still loving horses? You don't have to own one to be a part of this thread. Sometimes, I feel like I am alone in this favorite pastime. I am 61 but don't feel it at all. How about you?;) PJ

I am 50 and just got back into riding/showing hunters this past year after 3 decades away from horses. There are numerous exercises and programs you can do at home that will give you the cardio, core and leg strength you need to help regain confidence.
