Here she is practicing the two-point position.
I do love the way the picture came out!
Two-point position is the position that a rider takes
as they are approaching a horse jump As a rider is preparing to go over a jump
with their horse, the rider will move forward and into two point position- they
will be riding with two points in connection with a horse. The two points are
referring to the contact on each leg on each side of the saddle. Two-point takes considerable balance and muscle strength. In two-point the rider
doesn't just lean forward over the horse's neck, but balances their weight
farther back over the seat of the saddle. In this way the rider isn't off
balancing the horse, but is centered over the horses body in a slightly crouched
position
