You know, when i did western, i thought how stange it was to have such a weird saddle and to have such a slack rein contact. I love English style, and you'll love it too! Jumping is brilliant, and yes falls do happen, but with a good horse you'll be fine. You'll find that you'll get better and better, and you'll get hooked on jumping higher and longer! And also, falls are all part of experience, so the when you do fall just think that next time you'll know if it's coming!
