Rode Dru in a group lesson today. It went pretty well. He was really hyper at first, but as it went on he settled down. We started by doing trot extensions and canter catch-ups. Then we did some extensions in the canter, leg yielding, and a little counter canter. It was a lot of fun, and we didn't have to nit-pick everything as much, we could just do it. It was also nice because I had either Lindy (a Standardbred) or Prince (a Thoroughbred) in front of me. They are both reasonably forward horses so I didn't have to push so much to get him to go. I also rode in muck boots, and I liked them a lot better. It was a lot easier to get my leg down and off of him... weird, you'd think the boots I spent tons of money on would help me more.
