No offence, but ... By: XCaliBearsX. on 22 May 11, 11:10:31 No offence, but that sucked..
To both jumps you had no rhythm so the horse couldnt jump the fences balanced and neat.
the first one the horse put in? half strides because you didn't have any impultion
the sencond time you were holding onto her mouth.
so you didnt get any nice jumps.
learn before you try to 'help' others!
i am not at all saying how i have said is right, but it works better then this. canter is better, but you want a nice bouncy canter in a stable rhythm.

She is showing how ... By: gwenybear7. on 27 Mar 10, 04:02:11 She is showing how to do a gymnastic bounce. You can trot or canter them depending on? what you are trying to accomplish. They are that close together because there is no stride in between, just a landing and a take off. (That's the idea).
Also - at no point does she "flop" on her horse's back. AND - to be technically correct, you should jump the x to the vertical. While you can jump it the other way it is not correct.

Well I ride in an ... By: funkifilly123. on 12 May 09, 09:44:29 Well I ride in an all-purpose saddle and I can feel my horse's strides no matter where I position my legs.
I have never ridden in a dressage saddle however, so maybe it's different.
And I used to be the same with you with the whole "nagging" thing at trot, but it eventually? got better the more I tried :]

I think for this exercise it's not necessary to sit to the canter.. It's? a lot easier for the horse if u keep your weight out of the saddle.

stop rocking back ... By: naptimeponygirl. on 13 Mar 11, 17:32:18 stop rocking back and forth so much in canter. this will help? your horse to be more balanced when you come to do bigger fences and he will have less chance of knocking them.
0:58 it looks as ... By: rpauly12. on 02 Jan 10, 19:52:14 0:58 it looks as tho her left stirrup is higher than her right one. make sure your stirrups are the same length. she migh have gotton allittle off balance in? the saddle and forced the saddle to the right wich in turn movd her left stirrup. sometimes that happens so make sure that every once in a while you check to make sure everything is centured.
