Cassie walked Dante into the ring, and mounted smoothly. She asked him to walk on, allowing him to stretch out his neck, as she waited for Gena.

Gena walked into the ring, "I set up some jumps but we will warm up before taking them!"

"Okay!" Cassie nodded and continued walking Dante. When she had walked him on both reins, she asked Gena "Is is ok to trot now?"

Cassie smiled at Arianna as she entered the ring. "Hey, Arianna. Ready for some jumping?!" she said. She wondered if they'd be jumping small to help Arianna or whether they'd be jumping the heights Cassie was used to.

"If your thinking about what size we'll be jumping,then maybe if i do some little ones you can do them if you want,it's all practice,then when you do higher,I wont to it"

She grinned at Ari. "I don't mind. It's up to Gena." she said, patting Dante.

Gena smiled at the two, "Yes you may trot but Arianna needs to warm up at the walk like you did. I will have Cassie jumping higher on different jumps and Arianna will have her own half for jumping smaller."

"Cool!" said Cassie, pushing Dante on into his smooth trot and rising with the rythm of his hooves. She kept her heels down and her back straight, all whilst asking for Dante to go on the bit. He did. He was going really well today.

Ari smiled and kept sugar on a warm up walk,looking for the approval look of Gena she trotted and began rising smoothly and in time.

She changed the rein, changing diagonals and passed Ari. She grinned at the girl on her pony.

Ari returned the grin and began in canter,smoothly not bumping around in the saddle.

Gena shook her head, "In my lessons you will have to do as I ask of you. Ari, please come back down to a walk." Gena was always very serious about her students excelling with proper instruction. "Cassie, you may canter on the rail while Ari warms up at a walk on the inside."

Ari sighed and put a slight pressure on the reins,Sugar immediatly obeyed.Both of them had had such a great time cantering.She did a couple of diagonals then a figure of eight then a 20m circle.She then looked hopefully at Gena,wanting to atleats have a trot.

I entered the ring with Breeze as Ari trotted passed me on Sugar."Sorry i'm late guys i just took Breeze for a quick canter around the field to warm him up.Then he spooked at the barrel jump in the field as i was walking up the trial and wouldn't go past it.Then that made me late for my lesson because it took me ages to go past it,then i had to trot really fast up to here,i didn't want to canter because i would wear Breeze out."so what hight are we jumping?".

Cassie nodded at Gena, winking at Ari. She asked Dante for canter, nice and steady. She sat deep, not bouncing, as they cantered smoothly round the ring. She asked him to go on the bit, and he did, immediatly. He was on fire today! Cassie looked at Gena, calling "Do I change the rein?" She looked up in surprise as another girl entered the ring. She frowned. She didn't know someone else was joining the lesson.

Gena nodded, "You may trot Ari. Cassie, bring Dante to a walk and try to make a sharp transition with as little trot as possible. Keep him on the bit as you do so. Ari, you can go to the rail and Cassie was on the inside."
(Clemmie, this is the wrong barn. Charlie goes to Willow Springs.)

Cassie nodded and did what Gena said, concentrating fiercly. When Dante did it well, she grinned, and looked up at Gena.

Cassie watched in surprise as the girl came into the ring. Dante snorted and pawed the groung. When the horse trotted by him, Dante whinnied loudly and did a half rear. Cassie looked at the girl in annoyence. She'd come in here, started riding and made Dante spook, when he was going so nicely. Great. She sighed and walked Dante on, calming him. She looked up as the girl started going over the jumps. She shook her head. Dante tensed up underneath her and shot foward. He didn't like new things or horses. Cassie steadied him and attempted to walk thej skittish horse back over to Gena and Ari. She was extremely annoyed now.

Cassie rolled her eyes at Charlie, in a bad mood. "Whatever." she said, angrily, looking at Gena and waiting for her response.

Cassie looked over at Charlie. "You didn't mean to make your horse jump a 3'6 wall?" she said, sarcastically. "I don't need to be rude? Says you, barging in on our lesson and jumping all over the place. And FYI, it's not all about how high can you jump, I appreciate people who are nice to me and I like." she hissed. "Sorry, Gena." she added quietly, looking at her instructor.

"Um.. whoa slow down there, girl." said Cassie. "And I never told you to trot or canter or whatever? And go if you like. You should have more respect for other people than come barging in here and jumping." she said. "I don't care if you want me to be your friend then I can be. And to be honest, I f you're gonna tell your barns secrets... well that's just pathetic. And we're not like this, we just like people who respect us and our horses!" she said. "I really am sorry, Gena.." she said to her.
