Can She Learn to Ride Before We Cross America?

Katie is taking her first private horsemanship lesson with Wes as our family prepares for an incredible challenge: riding 4,000 miles across America on horseback. Before we can cross the country, we have to learn the fundamentals—and this lesson shows just how much we still have to learn. From properly haltering a horse to understanding pressure and release, personal space, safety, and trust, Katie goes back to the basics. Wes teaches us that horsemanship isn't about forcing a horse to follow you. It's about building communication, patience, and a relationship based on trust. Every lesson brings our family one step closer to our cross-country horseback adventure. Follow along as we learn, train, and prepare for the journey ahead. This is Worth the Ride. *FOLLOW WORTH THE RIDE* Instagram:   / worththerideusa   TikTok:   / worththerideusa   Facebook:   / worththerideusa   #WorthTheRide #Horsemanship #HorsebackRiding #HorseTraining #RidingAcrossAmerica
