My First Jumping Lesson! (read description)

[@BlackMountain150]

What a brilliant idea, jumping a straw bale, soft to hit, easy, it doesn't move and horses are used to seeing it. really nice idea, might try that myself. ^_^

[@BlackMountain150]

EavRidingIsLife I think my horse would stop and eat it lol XD

[@lia-du1mz]

+BlackMountain150 Hey i think i saw you on the comments of a sparsholt video xD

[@BlackMountain150]

LiaSaurus Probably lol :D im everywhere.

[@amyc5437]

Might try to eat it tho

[@evadevries3738]

If there was a hay bale wouldn't they stop to eat it? XD

[@darrenmcmurran2445]

Why is there 33 dislikes 😿 the girl who is riding is amazing…I'm jealous off her position not just jumping. She's incredible and I don't see anything wrong with this video.

[@XxXTessaXx]

+Darren McMurran Aww, thank you so much! :)

[@darrenmcmurran2445]

+XxXTessaXx awk it's no problem❤️what country are u from?

[@XxXTessaXx]

+Darren McMurran The Netherlands :)

[@darrenmcmurran2445]

+XxXTessaXx sounds lovely! What bred is your pony?

[@XxXTessaXx]

He's a haflinger

[@libby4810]

You are a really good rider! And your horse is gorgeous!

[@Olivia-ly9vo]

+Libby Firmin sub4sub?

[@libby4810]

+Olivia Equestrian sure :)

[@Olivia-ly9vo]

:)

[@RubyMasterson]

Yess, I believe it's a Haflinger. It's so beautiful but I do think she's a bit too tall for it.

[@Lumoskor]

It's about weight, not just height. She looks well suited to Bolero

[@elfiedeboer3024]

You have a lovely position on your pony when you jump, for someone who has taught themselves how to jump, you could almost say you have had a lot more than 1 lesson! :)

[@Olivia-ly9vo]

+Elfie de Boer sub4sub??

[@TheRealDeal92]

That looks like so much fun. I bet you could not stop smiling when you made your first jump. I could not stop smiling after I did my first canter correctly.It is a blast to ride horse. I love the video. Feel free to check out my videos. thanks for posting and good song.

[@giannapaga5753]

The Real Deal Horses it wasnt her first time jumping just first lesson i think she kept her horse at home

[@Audrey0407]

Your little haflinger is so adorable! It’s also amazing how you are bitless. You are an amazing rider 🤩

[@GoobergirlieLPS]

When I look at how other people's rings, jumps, jump standards, barns, and horses, I realise how boring my barn is!

[@emmaisbell4140]

ikr same

[@trashbag4460]

we're in a field (home to two shetlands) with two jumps and some tyres 🤔 I do the same

[@bella_rono]

+trash bag haha me 😂

[@goffy9777]

Goobergirlie LPS At least you have one

[@haileydamato1384]

[@emilyshaw5666]

[@JorviksWitcher]

I’m like 100% sure it’s a Haflinger

[@sarahponte6590]

I'm only on trotting :(

[@andreamchome1815]

SimplySarah same

[@miniaturehorses121]

SimplySarah same

[@bluesparklegirle9669]

i am starting my first lessons soon and i want to know what do you do on your first day do you learn how to care for your horse how to put sadle on your horse,brush him or do you start raiding the first day ?

[@sarahponte6590]

Blue SparkleGirle You'll will ride first day and learn the basics like walking and and turning you horse/proper posture while walking. Then after we rid I brushed him and learned he was to take off the tack, it may be different at other stables but that's just what I did.

[@claudiasrandomvideos7097]

SimplySarah I was learning how to jump before cantering 😂😂😂

[@ccreepypastaa3174]

you did such a good job! and the horse you rode is beautiful!

[@IvyMPDressage]

oh wow thats very very high for a first lesson good job

[@giannapaga5753]

Sweetie Pi Its not her first time jumping shes self taught its just first junping lesson

[@gbene3162]

Gianna Paga I think she meant her first jumping lesson

[@sarahhughes6853]

Obsessed with your pony!! You looked great :)

[@SelkaAndHorses]

That looks very impressive for the first jumps!

[@user-kp9xi7ud7m]

Kasia G there not her first jumps 😂 that's her first jumping LESSON, lol

[@iclynnx]

I've only jumped once, and that was while trotting, and I loved it! I really love horses, and riding. If only there was bitless bridles in my riding school, but I guess they have to use it because it's hard getting horses trained without bits.

[@brittsequineriding4326]

gasp! your pony is the cutest!

[@bubz1352]

Omg i love this video sooooo much You are an amazing rider And i love that you are riding bittles Love your chanel soooooo much Ps: you have such a cute horse

[@raffgenovese5415]

Hi Tessa I absolutely adore your channel! I love you and you horse Bolero, and such amazing riding too. Keep on with the good work! :D

[@XxXTessaXx]

[@Olivia-ly9vo]

+MyMagicMare sub4sub??

[@janjafoder9507]

o wow!!Totally love you'r video!! You're jumping very well! but the best thing is that you were riding bittless! :)

[@stephanie_365]

Haha wow I watched this so long ago when I first started riding not knowing anything about jumping and now watching this right now i can now understand counting the strides and actually know what posting is and what a good jumping position is . You look really good!

[@tiamcclelland5630]

She doesn't need a bigger horse as she probably doesn't weigh much and as you can see her horse can jump perfectly well with her on it @Aleema Garfinkel

[@Olivia-ly9vo]

+Tia McClelland sub4sub??

[@elizabethp.982]

It makes me really happy to see that I'm not the only one that had to teach myself. Good job riding, and nice video :)

[@mollyhi4862]

love it

[@terihoward4731]

Good job you look really confident, wish I was that confident after I had 2 bad falls I lost my confidence and now am I starting to get it back by doing small cross-country jumps and trust exercises.

[@Monkeybread300]

AWESOME JOB! I just had my first jumping lesson today! I FELT SO ALIVE :O

[@XxXTessaXx]

+Monkeybread300 AJ Thanks! That's wonderful! :)

[@aliciasmith1244]

You and bolero work really good together! Great riding!

[@brookesonicBreyerhorses]

Wow! I have trotted over crossrails about as high as my knee only once but im exited! For you and me!

[@galaxyslimes9908]

Beautiful horse!! Your really good at riding! Well done for your first lesson!! Xx

[@TheTurtlevlog]

You looked incredible while jumping! I hope to jump like that soon! Working on my canter but can't seem to hold myself down like in a sitting trot.

[@miloandmorgan8869]

What works in sitting trot is keep a slow rythem and really sit in the saddle the technique i find that works is if you lift up your legs like sitting like a jockey u will feel more in the seet then try trot but keep your heels down that helps alot

[@miloandmorgan8869]

Ofcorse put ur feet back down lol

[@sazjh]

Hi, i have been riding for nearly a year now, and I had trouble keeping my balance during canter until yesterday I didn't loose balance at all once. I find that always looking straight ahead and leaning back slightly really helps staying the seat. also for sitting trot, just let everything relax, lean back a bit and feel like your feet are pulling you to the floor. This is what my instructor told me. Yesterday I had my first jumping lesson and trust me you will be fine if your on a safe horse and have an amazing instructor like I do 😊 dont forget to believe in yourself, because once you have confidence then you can do it 😊

[@XxXTessaXx]

Thank you so much! I hope the advice works :)

[@madelinewilson2285]

WOW!!!!!!! I have had many jumping lessons and I can only jump 20 inches!! Of course I have been jumping for almost a year and a half. But still for self taught... thats AMAZING!!!!

[@adeleswrld5579]

Woah!!!! Thats one beautiful horse and one awesome rider! You did so well for your first time ive been jumping for a year and im still not as good as you! Can't wait to see you at the Olympics! XD

[@PhoenixderDritte]

He's such a great jumper!

[@oni_nahcoombs6746]

Woww! Them jumps are pretty high for a starter u r an excelent rider. U have have earned another subscriber x

[@aimeethehoob]

you are really good for a self-taught jumper. I couldn't even stay in the saddle. I was hanging. LOL

[@thatblackandwhitecobx1512]

you are amazing!! and youre a self taught jumper!! that's amazing 💓💓 your horse is really cute too❤

[@mackenzie.bircher]

You are an amazing inspiration!! The only that I saw was that you got behind the horses motion on the landing of the jumps. Otherwise, you are outstanding and I hope you never quit riding and continue what you are already great at!! 🐴 😊

[@lucy2901]

considering you're self-taught, you're an amazing rider! And you and your horse really get along :) I was also self-taught but I eventually got lessons ;)

[@JCHorsemanship]

I love the halfi I had one a few years ago but I grew out of her she was 13.2hh but I'd take her back in a heart beat she was so sweet. Amazing riding

[@anvanderej1212]

You jumped that high at the first lesson, wow that's like what I jump on my lessons and I've been riding for 3 years.❤️😱

[@miatreadwell1874]

Great job, your such an amazing rider! The dislikes are just jealous of you and your adorable pony.

[@SmallPetInfo1]

I love this video!! Great job editing and you have great jumping position! Great job for your first jumping lesson! Ps. Beautiful Halflinger!

[@XxXTessaXx]

Thank you! :D

[@madilynparson1737]

Thanks Tessa I tried that and it works there a sertan jumps that my horse won't go over I'll try cantering a little harder in my next horse show and see how it goes

[@zoeblair1818]

You are so good 😊 and well done for jumping so high on ur first jumping lesson ❤️

[@sophietreagust8662]

you done really well and I like how ur confidence when I jump my pony he is hard to hold back so I can see why your confidence grew well done x

[@XxXTessaXx]

Yeah my pony had that in the beginning too, with everything, not only jumping. But after a few years he did better, but I like it when he is fast though haha

[@sophietreagust8662]

Yeah my pony is an ex jumper and I love him to bits but he is very spooky and can be do hard to hold back and when I do give him chance to run I am holding on for dear life x

[@Dara-dw9qq]

Your a real good rider. It's cool how you let him see the trot poles😉

[@horsesanimalsandeverything4960]

wow!!! That's her first lesson? Those are huge jumps for any person's first time jumping!!! Nice job!!!

[@flyinghorsestudios2248]

Wow! You are an incredible rider! Just subscribed! Great job!

[@hannaaa232]

[@margauxb7363]

[@cloudeventingloveriderepea7690]

[@gerardsassway2510]

[@XxXTessaXx]

always equesrian Thanks! Aah good luck and have fun!

[@isabellacasinelli2610]

You are AMAZING!!! I can't believe this is ur first lesson!!!

[@xLunai]

I have the same problem, I'm glad I'm not the only one- my mare always tries to stick with other horses if they're in the arena, and she gives me attitude about going away from them lol You have great form!! You guys look great together :)

[@XxXTessaXx]

You are the first one I hear who has the same problem! And thank you :)

[@jaemay17]

Such a pretty little haffie! Too cute :) I love haflingers

[@Olivia-ly9vo]

+Jaimee Mah sub4sub??

[@XxXTessaXx]

@Jasmine Newton You have to have contact with your horse (don't know how they say that in English xd), but that's like holding tight but not pulling. When you're going to jump or go over poles you have to give him some space to see it, maybe I didn't do that enough but my instructor kept telling me that I have to have more contact and that was new for me, because normally have my reins not that thight (but he knows what he's talking about). But thanks :)

[@tukeonytreal]

Omg! Her Haflinger looks like mine, Potato, with a longer mane and tail! Beautiful rider and horse

[@marissamadilly5435]

I cant wait till do jumping lessons! I dont go to the same place, but. Yeah :D Congrats

[@hbequestrian1128]

YOU ARE BRILLIANT!!!!!! YOU CANT BE SELF TAUGHT YOUR POSITION IS PERFECT 👌 well done 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

[@abigailhutchinson5487]

You are amazing! I ride a haflinger also but ugh he's the laziest and the cheekiest thing ever.

[@juliacarlson3133]

Awesome! The progression of your jump position is amazing. I noticed that if I think about tipping at the hip instead of pushing my shoulders forward I tend to stay with the horse's motion a bit better, if that helps for future rides at all =) Also, and of course I never rode that horse, but it seemed your lower leg was a bit unsteady- OR, you had to continuously kick on. If you weren't asking for more forward momentum, considering quieting it a bit and allowing your lower leg to wrap a bit more to give you a better base. Again, absolutely amazing first jump lesson and I hope any suggestions I made, if you find them applicable, help =)

[@claireproudley4880]

your amazing! im only on cross poles at the moment at canter , your pony is sooo pretty tho! well done great job!!!

[@XxXTessaXx]
