“Why isn’t my child showing yet?”

“Why isn’t my child winning?”

“Why isn’t my child further along like “so and so” who started at the same time?”

And the question I dread the most… “ how long until my child is competitive?”

Well as a trainer, and as a person who sits back quietly and listens and watches. Let me put it in perspective for you. If you have your child in one lesson a week, this is what the time spent looks like.

A one hour lesson, once a week, for a year.

1hr x 52 weeks = 52 hours

52 hours, your child spends 52 hours a year on the back of a horse. Let’s take it a step further.... there’s 365 days in a year. one day is 24 hrs.

52 hrs a year / 24hrs in a day = 2.17 days

Of 365 days a year, your child is only spending 2 days learning how to ride horses.

This doesn’t count if you have to skip or cancel a lesson due to family vacation, your child is sick, or some other event takes priority over your child’s lesson.

Now keep in mind, some children have different opportunities, and there is a reason the school sports have a practice on an average 3 times a week, and college sports have practice every day. I can’t not stress enough that you get out what you put in.

So ask yourself and reflect. Don’t blame your trainer, don’t blame the judge, and certainly don’t make an excuse your child’s lack of interest or dedication. Not all children are the same. Remember you don’t need a $100,000 horse to be a winner, you need $100,000 in lessons.
