Don`t panic too ... By: 0532425. on 10 Mar 12, 11:31:15 Don`t panic too much, the horse will feel you are tense, if you just relax you`ll be fine. Also having a calm, slow horse with smooth paces and a fenced arena will also help because if you are scared if the horse running off,? there`s nowhere for it to go.Try to keep a good position, bum in the saddle, don`t hang onto the mouth.
Don`t worry too much.The canter is heaps smoother than the trot, so if you are good at that you will have no problems at all! Good luck! :D

no offence but its ... By: EpicBlueSpikes. on 14 Apr 12, 23:04:09 no offence but its very hard to follow a horses natural movement when there's tension in your body, not to mention the fact of the horse might? pick up on that tension and become uncomfortable doing whatever your asking for, If your forcably doing something, it creates this tension, after many months etc your heels give stretch enabling you to angle them down further, as long as you heel is lower than your toe your alright. ;)

LOL more like a ... By: caitlyneFUCK. on 21 Mar 12, 17:36:23 LOL more like a troll rider. you want to keep your hands as quiet and steady as possible when riding. your horse should already know your in charge if you're planning on cantering for the first time, whether as a rider or with a green horse. you should push through your seat using your outside leg as a signal and your? inside leg as a guide. if your horse bucks or charges, half halt, bring them into a circle, or slow back down into a steady trot before trying again.

I'm a pro horse ... By: DivaDiva231. on 04 Nov 11, 07:09:05 I'm a pro horse rider so i sugest if you wanna canter a horse do this 1. Click your tongue as if your calling a dog,doing so will canter your horse 2.Use your right foot? to gently kick the horses side,doing so will make your horse go into a canter as well 3.Whip the reigns to make your horse canter,I reccomend whipping the reigns to let the horse know your in charge,failure to do so will cause the horse to buck you off.I hope this came in handy for you people who wanna ride a horse thumbs up 2ya

1. I've noticed that pressing helps me a lot
2. If your horse doesn't respond to squeezing, try clucking and kicking :)
3. pretty much the same as 2- clucking, kicking, squeezing,? whatever works best.

I am also not a fan ... By: UltimateDQ. on 03 Jun 10, 03:28:31 I am also not a fan of "pulling the head in" and so I don't love some of the terminology this instructor is using. That being said, some horses have an easier time letting go in their back in a rounder frame, and once the back lets go then? the hind legs can come more under. It is very difficult and sometimes counter productive to try to push hind legs into a tight back. Stretching forward has it's place but not so much if we are trying to get the hind legs under.
@UltimateDQ you ... By: diamondblue16. on 02 Jun 10, 15:16:24 @UltimateDQ you cannot help a horse come through his back more by pulling his head in. It ALL starts in the hide end. If she wanted to allow him to stretch his back she should let? him stretch FORWARD on a long rein.
Wow, thank you :] I ... By: LinkandZeldalover. on 02 Jun 10, 14:56:00 Wow, thank you :] I didn't? know exactly what it was. But my friend helped me correct it, we had to pull the outside rein up and roll my heel into him on the inside leg. He quit doing it :] but thank you for letting me know what it was that he was doing.
His chin is not ... By: UltimateDQ. on 02 Jun 10, 14:03:44 His chin is not tucked to his chest. There is nothing? wrong with periodically making the horse rounder to help him come more over his back.
Give me a break, ... By: UltimateDQ. on 02 Jun 10, 14:00:49 Give me a break, that? is not rollkur.
What you are ... By: UltimateDQ. on 02 Jun 10, 13:57:08 What you are describing is a disunited or cross canter. A? counter canter is when you are intentionally on the "wrong" lead, it is a good balancing and collecting exercise. Collecting (in a nutshell, in a dressage sense) is when the horse transfers more weight to the hind legs and makes the steps shorter and higher, it doesn't have so much to do with the head although the horse does have to be round to do it.

cantering should be ... By: caitlyneFUCK. on 21 Mar 12, 18:02:47 cantering should be sitting straight and rolling your hips with the horse's movement, unless in a hunt/half seat where you're slightly forward and your bottom is slightly out of the saddle. bouncing around like she is is extremely uncomfortable for a horse as you're bouncing on their spine. this rider should, also, shorten? her reins a bit because her elbows are sticking out and wrists are bending; and push through her seat, keeping her legs steadier especially with spurs on.

Finally a good video! I quit riding because something happened, and I used to ride for 7 years. Was doing jumps and everything even almost bought the school horse Sally. Then I quit:( and? after 2 years I am starting again, so this video helped a lot because I am being evaluated. Just asking do you always post with the outside leg?

Once I rode a chestnut mare (so beautiful) I was cantering her and it was so bouncy I was holding the saddle. I was thinking 'it's such a shame? the canter didn't match her beauty

You mean shorten up the reins? Yeah, you just do it slightly so that when your on your horse and your body is moving you don't feel loose one moment? and tight the next.

When cantering do you keep the? reins the same length?

I actually cantered with a Appaloosa TWH cross mare this past week? and it was amazing. She is gaited so I didn't even really feel the transition from "trot" to canter.

Don`t panic too much, the horse will feel you are tense, if you just relax you`ll be fine. Also having a calm, slow horse with smooth paces and a fenced arena will also help because if you are scared if the horse running off,? there`s nowhere for it to go.Try to keep a good position, bum in the saddle, don`t hang onto the mouth. Don`t worry too much.The canter is heaps smoother than the trot, so if you are good at that you will have no problems at all! Good luck! :D

Next time I'm out at the ranch I'll have to try it. Thanks? :)

just try and go with it. dont let yourself flop to much and just lean forward as they do. elbows in and short reins.try not to fly out of your seat to much. hold on to the pommel of the saddle if you need to.? hope that helps x

@TheEquestrianSpot the thing that gets me? most is the little skip into the canter. i always get off balanced
