Passed level 2 online!!!!!
What a time it was. Set out just to do a video trial, mighty wind blowing. Zaina was soooo terrific that I decided to submit the audition despite the less than wonderful quality.
I had to fold up the tarp and hold it down with cavalletti blocks, making a very small area for Zaina to step onto. I "assumed" she would balk, but she was WONDERFUL.
Molly Saunders assessed, and gave us helpful encouragement and very positive marking for our relationship (2++) and circling (level 3). Lots of areas in need of improvement - go figure!
How interesting that when I started with this "Parelli stuff" I had no interest in "doing" the levels. But completing level 2 online has become important for my own progress. I've needed to "do" it in order to move on.
It has also been an important part of my personal development - to risk submitting a video. That was a goal of just sending in something despite not being super quality - risking what someone might think of it. Very glad to have done it. Now moving forward!
