episode 5: EP005: How To Choose Your Teacher
Finding the right teacher for you and your horse is a really important decision. Riding, competing, training, and teaching are all separate skill sets and not every professional is talented in all of them.
In order to really learn from someone, you have to trust them, so when it comes to choosing your instructor - choose wisely.
In this podcast I will share some of my thoughts on how you can make an excellent choice and find an instructor that you can really thrive and progress with.
