Having shown us her
warm-up routine in a previous video,
Emily Llewellyn (double gold medallist, European Champs' 08) takes us through a session of simulated cross country jumping in her school with 7 year old, Junior. Starting small, Emily 'plays' with an arrangement of fences to establish balance and obedience, including arrow-heads, a coffin, corner, bounce and angled rails. She also explains how to ride them when going cross-country. Emily stresses the importance of building up gradually, particularly with complex fences such as the coffin. She does a terrific job with a spooky Junior and is a star to continue in heavy rain!
