The Equestrian Lesson Journal was created by Michele Cook and Jordan Dorn. Two riders who love to keep track of their lessons, but couldn’t find a good format to make sure they were recording the same information about each lesson. We wanted one place where we could keep our lesson progress, horse shows, and clinics all in one spot. When we couldn’t find what we were looking for, the Equestrian Lesson Journal was born.
We designed the journal to stand up to a barn environment with a stiff high-gloss cover and spiral binding. Throw it in your tack trunk so you will have it after each lesson.
The Lesson Pages
The lesson journal includes 50 double-sided lesson pages. It has space for the simple everyday things like the weather, the horse, and the instructor plus prompts to review what we did in the lesson, and what we need to work on. We have mean instructors who give us homework (okay we ask for it… Shhhh) so we included a spot for things to work on at home. There is also a general notes section for each lesson so we could keep track of the random things that come along with riding horses. Tack changes, new acrobatic moves, and our general feelings about the lessons all go in this section.
The Horse Show Pages
Many of us like to test our skills by horse showing. We aren’t any different. We like to see how we stack up against the competition, and we love hanging out with our horse friends and cheering them on. To keep track of what we entered, how we placed, and what we should work on at home, we included 20 double-sided horse show pages.
The Clinic Pages
We might be clinic junkies. Every time a big name trainer comes to town, we are at least auditing if not riding. Clinics are great to get high-level training, without forking out thousands of dollars to train with the big guys. The Equestrian Lesson Journal includes 15 double-sided pages for clinic notes.
