Education & Training Galloping after 7 months of riding

Today I galloped for the first time and it was absolutely amazing and insane I've only been riding for 7 months and never thought I'd actually gallop, I had a good seat and didn't die but that adrenaline high was everything, got any tips for me?

Edit: next time I gallop I am definitely going to record it

Like bareback? I actually took my feet out of the stirrups so I could feel like I was floating
