Creative Horseback Riding

I've got horses on my mind 24/7 these days. It's an obsession that started when I was in eighth grade, and it's only grown worse over the years. I'm currently leasing a horse named Gunner for two weeks to decide if I'd like to buy him, and as part of determining if he's a good fit, I'm trying to ride him almost everyday of the week. Visual learning is the best way for me to understand concepts, so I decided to draw out some lesson plans for the upcoming days so that I have a good idea of what I want to accomplish each time I work with Gunner.

I tried to color code his different gaits (movements) so that I could understand my sketches better. I'm no artist, but drawing up the lesson plans has been fun and is a good way for me to stay organized and achieve my horseback riding goals.
