I had another clinic with Beth and again the ride went great but she gave me completely opposite techniques and it became quite confusing and difficult again when I went back to lessons with Erin since each were telling me different things. This time the opposite technique was with the walk; Erin has always told me not to push with my hips since it could manufacture his walk but to just let his walk move my hips. Beth told me to exaggerate the movement in my hips to get the better walk. Both wand the same thing...temp and a swinging connected walk but two totally opposite ways of getting it. Both worked but when I use the others technique in front of the other they tell me to do it their way. I find it difficult to be able to learn a whole new technique and then suddenly have to unlearn it and learn a opposite one.
We also worked on parts of my test like figures and transitions which helped a lot, however I don't know if I will ride with Beth again since it has been quite confusing and difficult for me to make progress in my mind with the differing views...
