aww you guys look cute!

You look really good. I don't really see anything except maybe your toe tends to turn out a bit and your heels come up sometimes. It's good you're riding w/out stirrups, though. It will help you get that hat to heel straight line without having to worry about pulling your stirrups back. As far as the toes (which may only be a result of you riding bareback), my trainer gave me a visual - she said ride like you're a cowgirl, meaning concentrate on putting weight on the outside of your foot, and it will be easier for your toes to point forward. How did you start your horse with the string, BTW? That's really neat, and I'd like to try it. -Elizabeth

i agree! Good job!

You look great! I would add that in two of the pics you are leaning a bit too far back with your shoulders. Try to keep a straight line from your ears, shoulders, hips and heels. Sorta hard to do bareback though

. If you shift your weight more onto your seat bones and off your bum by tilting your hips just a bit it should help.
