I missed those moments of joy and exhilaration, those moments of
communicating with the horse, of flying, of floating, of traveling
on the back of an animal and feeling his movements. Shortly after
her fortieth birthday, author Katherine Maxwell made a list of all
the things she wanted to do in her lifetime. The very first item
was learning how to ride a horse. Having been on a horse only once
before as a teenager, Maxwell estimated that seven lessons would be
adequate. She quickly realized that seven lessons could not
possibly turn her into an equestrian, or even make her a competent
rider. But she discovered the joy of being in the saddle when she
connected with the horse's rhythms and movements. Twenty-four years
later, Maxwell remembers those adventures in learning intuitive
skills as an older adult. To remind herself of what it took to
build muscle memory and develop reflexive reactions, she wrote and
compiled her stories into the touching memoir A Leg Up. Share in
Maxwell's joy and discovery as she takes you through her journey of
self-awareness and courage.
