I am subscribed because soon I'm going to go horse back riding with my friend for the first time on my upcoming birthday thanks for helping beginners! (Horses are my favorite animal! 🐴🏇🐎)
I experimented with my leg position last tuesday. I noticed that I really follow the motion of the horse, but maybe too much. My thighs were almost rolling with the movement and didn’t provide much support. I tried softly keeping contact with the saddle (not pinching) and it made everything feel more quiet and stable. My lower leg was able to reach further back and my feet were more parallel with the horse (instead of my duck feet position.) Awesome new video. My horse slows down off of my seat very well, but that’s because I ride on a loose rein alot (long, low, hind end engagement stuff)
Thank you so much for posting how to and more importantly WHY it works from a body mechanics point of view. I am riding again after a 40 year "hiatus" and I need these videos! I worked for PT's and yoga instructors for years so am delighted to incorporate what I know while I'm on a horse! Your explanations are very clear and also encouraging. Brilliant teaching!
Your videos really help me mentally prepare before my lessons. I have seen improvement in my communication with my horse. I’m sure my horse is relieved as well! Thank you !!
You’re amazing I love your videos because I’m studying how to ride a horse so I can take classes on it and already understand something so I can have some horses when I grow up which is my dream! ❤️
Very helpful. It is all wonderful info. Preventively, good horsemanship, understanding so many components of horse and human, and human on the horse. I ride school horse. Thoroughbred. He's wonderful. Your videos are helping me in a more cohesive way, it is so much one cannot see while riding. We have no mirrors in our state of the art indoor arena. I am persevering, have had 2+ years. out of the seat. I love riding, this is helping me with visuals, your words and my interest in doing it right for the horse and me. Thank you. I will keep watching you.
Thank you for sharing. You explain in details all aspect of the technique which is very helpful to beginner riders like me. Looking forward to more videos.
Clear & concise instruction/guidance, very helpful. My horse likes the lightest of aides & I reckon that at times I confuse him. I will try this method, thanks.
Thank you so much for easy videos! I show these to my beginner riders! Can you make a how to canter video?? All the videos I try to find are so over complicated, you do an amazing job breaking things down very simple - Sav
Hi Sav! I’m so glad the videos are a help 😀 Making a video on how to pick up the canter is a wonderful idea🐎 Thank you for the suggestion👍 I also subscribed to your channel😀 I love your weekly Wednesday videos❤️ You have a beautiful perspective on life. Keep up the good work 😊
Hi😊 This is a great question! I would do a little work on the ground to help my horse with this. Here are a couple of videos that may help ua-cam.com/video/Cs7mcGzLOCM/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/5DlNyyTw-1M/v-deo.html
I just commented on another on of you videos asking how to do this and I hope this works for me I’m trying to train my horses to be better. I love your videos so far I just hope when I try all of this that it works the same in a barrel saddle with a 1 inch pad
Hi😊 I’m so glad you are enjoying the videos. In my experience riding in a western saddle and thicker pad doesn’t make a difference in teaching your horse to stop off your seat. Your timing and consistency does. This is something that takes time to develop. I wish you the success 💕🐴
Hello I love you videos, so crystal clear, I love your voice and how you get the msgs across. When you speak the horses are so relaxed, and me too 😊 Did you make a video about trot to walk transition? I took up riding after a 30yr old break, and I really struggle with this transition. The instructor gives us only the 4th aid from the above video, and it doesn't feel right, neither for me nor the horse. Thank you 🙏❤️⭐
Hi Paula😊 Thank you for your kind words💕 I did do a video on how to do a trot to walk transition🐴 You can check it out here 👉ua-cam.com/video/P9g36u2dJhc/v-deo.html
Hey!! Thank you for that I will definitely give it a try. There is one question that I have and that is rewarding your horse. I see you doing it, talking about rewarding and you do it as well. I do it as a matter of course patting him and verbal things like good boy! Is that all it is? Is that all it takes for them to know they are doing well and that you are happy with them? Or is there other things I can do?
Hi 😊 Petting your horse is a great form of reward. You can also give them a scratch in an area that they enjoy, give them a treat or change the subject of whatever you’re working on to give them a break🐴
The best form of reward is giving them release :) let’s say they collect for you nicely, take your leg off a little bit and give them a tiny bit of rein. It basically tells them “thank you for doing what you did, here is a quick break”
Just came from your other video on beginner basics including stopping, to expand on that....and tbh I still don’t get it. “quite riding” I feel like I want someone to say specifically are you tucking your pelvis under like a little ab crunch...? Anatomy and body movment- wise (albeit small).. what is it that you do ?
I did not understand what do you got to do tho stop your horse, how muscles do use have you use... Love this youtube channel and I think you teach and explain thing very well but I did not understand this subject A virtual hug form Portugal!
It takes FOREVER to learn how to stop with your seat. Every horse knows a different way to stop with their seat. My old horse was to tuck my butt completely under me and basically squeeze my cheeks (western). I would just keep working with your horse until they figure out what your seat means. When me and my old horse were figuring each other out we would do 1) seat 2) reins. If he would walk through my stop we would back up and if he did it repeatedly then he would get a quick tug on the bit.
Sometimes I need things explained to me a couple different ways to really FEEL what my instructor means. Another way to say it is to 'stop following' with your seat. I gently tighten my whole ab area, which stops my seat from moving along with the horse as much. Hope that helps!
I have two horses and both react differently one is fast to learn and the other is not but it usually work after I begin using it on a daily routine and when I'm the only one riding so they get used to me :)
Hi 😊 When we first start riding we are often taught to only use our reins to stop. As we progress in riding I like to move to using my seat as my main cue before using the reins.
The Position Video I mentioned can be found here: ua-cam.com/video/lZe9Ozdz7Us/v-deo.html Thanks for all your support :) Talk to You Soon 🙂🐴
I think i will own a horse.Can i buy a halflinger horse. Will it be right for first time. 🤔🤔
Thank you for these videos I’m a beginner rider and these videos really help me be prepared for my next lesson and improve my riding
When she said “quit riding” I thought she meant to quit your career 😂
Lol 😂
Oh..I quit my career for nothing? Lol
This is funny.
Lol same
Same lol
I just learned how to change my diagonal!!! :D
I think I have found my riding instructor. You are awesome so is the horse.

Great to hear! I’m glad the videos are a help in your renewed passion for riding 😊
Thank you! I definitely need to use more seat when I am cantering as I lean to far forwards anyways!
The best horse training channel on UA-cam that i could find. Keep up the great work!
That was a good boy!
Your videos really help me mentally prepare before my lessons. I have seen improvement in my communication with my horse. I’m sure my horse is relieved as well! Thank you !!

Thanks for breaking it down and also if your horse responds to any of the first steps in stopping him you release the reins and reward. So helpful!

Hi! Great video. How do you handle a horse that doesn't want to turn one way and pulls you to the other?
Hi😊 This is a great question! I would do a little work on the ground to help my horse with this. Here are a couple of videos that may help ua-cam.com/video/Cs7mcGzLOCM/v-deo.html

Hi, it’s a Schleese saddle
I did not understand what do you got to do tho stop your horse, how muscles do use have you use...

Does this work for western riding as well?
Yes 😊
Super👌👌👌
Can you do this with any horse? And while cantering as well?
I had a problem with this and the pony I rode, I always have to pull on him to stop. hopefully this helps :)
I don't even do horse riding, but I'm just curious how one's stop horse without pulling the reins. anyway, thank you for the explanation video
I have two horses and both react differently one is fast to learn and the other is not but it usually work after I begin using it on a daily routine and when I'm the only one riding so they get used to me :)
What do you mean by ‘squeezing your rein’?
Step 6 is brace for impact
Make every Saturday new video please please
Another great video. I'll check out Alizee Froment, thanks!
My trainers say to us when to stop my horse to pull the rains by my tummy is that right to do
Hi 😊
When we first start riding we are often taught to only use our reins to stop. As we progress in riding I like to move to using my seat as my main cue before using the reins.
@@JSHorsemanship oh ok thank u💫
Lady: To stop a horse, indicate with your seat and quit riding .
Me: Suddenly jumps off of a horse and breaks my seat.
I don’t even have a horse but here I am
More horse riding lessons
People tell me to stop riding but when I do that my little red headed mare thinks that means , I'm free to run Away
I wish I can have a horse but I live in the city my dad said if he wins th lottery he'll buy be a Horse and a stable
