How do u not start shaking on the horse when troting? 🤔
Question if you don't mind me asking. I just started riding I'm 35 and trying to figure out posting my mom is helping me learn and trying to get me to do what's called a two point stance? Will this help with posting? I feel like it's working all the right muscles
Just a question I have been riding western 6 years and now I am riding english so I am no expert but why are your sturrips long?
@@tom6580 im not very experienced so dont fully rely on this but im pretty sure two point is just to get ready for jumping and kinda how to practice doing that. im probably a little late to this but oh well haha
Great videos you have 😁 I love rising or posting without stirrups and no stirrup work in general 👍😁 Please could you do a video on trot -> canter and canter -> trot? I’m coming back into riding from a 10 year break and loving every moment and working hard on core strength but my those two transitions are still pretty disasterous and I can’t get enough of videos on the subject! ❤️
im an experienced rider but I’ve always had trouble with my posting trot and this really helped me. thank you so much!
I’m so glad it helped 💕🐴
Me to. I've just never been able to do it perfectly.
Same here!
Is it just me or is her voice just really soothing a calm
I started riding this week at the age of 25. I’m completely in love. Can’t wait to try out all these tips! Your videos are very clear to understand and so helpful for beginners
I’m glad the videos are helping 💕 Riding horses is a wonderful journey🐴 I hope you have fun and enjoy😊
I’m also 25 and just started lessons a few weeks ago. It’s become my happy place. This video definitely helps me think about nothings I need to think about.
@@laurencotter2773 ahh that's crazy! so nice to find other people starting at our age. I've actually made a few friends through my riding classes! I'm glad I started
Evellyon Studios I’ve been riding since I was 6 or 7 and I have major respect for you starting at 25 I don’t think I’d ever try a new sport a 25 I would think I’m old. So I really respect you
@@gachaeris9732 I started 3 weeks ago with riding horses. I am 49 years! And i love it!!
Wow! This helped a lot, my riding instructor basically said “go up and down to the rythem of the horse” and never explained any kind of technique and I’m glad I found this video so I can look and be better while riding
I'm here doing homework before my second riding lessons, I think I know what I should fix now. Thank you for the tips!
my lesson teacher gives me hw too LOL
Dude I'm watching this for my homework for my second riding lesson to
@@doggogang9985 good luck on your rides!
@@namshaw7515 tnx it's going good so far
Same!
This really helped me I’ve always had trouble posting too high ❤️
I decided to live out my midlife crisis by pursuing my childhood horse dreams. I started lessons this summer at the age of 52. This video dramatically improved my posting trot at my lesson this morning. I was definitely trying to stand in the stirrups and your tip to keep my lower leg still helped tremendously. I had my best lesson ever today, all thanks to you!!! And I’m not exhausted after 30 minutes in the saddle. Thank you so much!!❤
Thank you for sharing and congratulations on pursuing your dreams! I’m so glad that this video was a help to you. 😊 Keep up the good work!🐎
Ditto for the mid life crisis and starting horse back riding lessons just before my 50th birthday. Its challenging, but I love it! ❤
thanks so much for this video! my trainer never corrected me on this and I figured out because I was pushing off my feet, it was the reason why i was so exhausted ever after just one circle around the arena! this video really help not only discover that reason, but how to post correctly!
I just back from my second time riding a horse. This was my second lesson. I had trouble trying to trot
Today I had my second lesson I’m 9 and starting doing my posting trot today I. Doing it again next week so this helped a lot!
My riding instructor taught me a saying which is “rise and fall with the shoulder on the wall”
Love the chapter sections, slow motion, correcting mistakes and clear instructions
The checks that you provided for correct posture are so lucid! Thank you so much!
I have been riding for 5 years but I just love watching tips of stuff! Idk why but you covered a lot of helpful ideas!
This is really helpful! I’m a lifelong western rider and taking my second English lesson tomorrow. Coming from a cutting and roping background it’s a different seat in a lot of ways. And I think you’re right-a lot of it is gaining strength. I was actually sore after my last lesson and I ride several days a week. This is a great visual. Thanks again.
I always thought western riding was harder.
I hate the fatter , bulky saddle and hate longer stirrups.
I feel more in control with my kness up against the saddle and using my knees.
In fact I went on a trail ride with my father and they ran out of western saddles.
One poor guy didn't have one, so I asked the person taking us out, who just happened to be my instructor, so she let me use an English saddle, so the poor guy could have my western saddle.
Thank you so much for this video! I used to always entirely depend on my stirrups to rise! My trainer always told me to put the pressure in my heel and make sure they are down. I’ve moved barns. Again thank you so much for this video!
Hi Julia 😊
My pleasure. I’m so glad it helped😀
Love that this video is short and sweet. Thansk!
I just started riding at 11 and started learning how to trot. This really helped. Ty!
thank u for the tips!!
Wow your videos are so helpful, after couple posting trot classes, I found you summarized it precisely in a short video!!
Just rode for the first time in 3 years (lesson-wise) and this is really helpful!
thanks the tips are truely helpful
I just started riding two days ago and wanted to do it for years and finally got a job to do it..i trotted my first ride because I was doing so well..but they didn’t really teach me how to post yet but I got an idea of posting while I was just walking...i think this is gonna help a lot for next week
thank you your videos helped me improve verymuch !
I like this video. It shows how posting should look effortless and in combination with the flow of the horse. You see so many people posting like it’s an activity on its own. They look like they are pushing the horse
thank you my trainer showed me you.
I have pretty strong cabs so it was pretty easy and good.
Thank you, you really helped.
I’m definitely going to try these tips tomorrow at my lesson thank you
Thank you so much! I needed this right now!
Very clearly stated. Thanks so much
Love your videos. Thank you so much for sharing. Appreciated 🙏❤️
Thank you!
I just started horse back riding a mounth or two ago and started trotting and I love it I love my horse shay
Ty!! This video helped me out I am just begginning to trot by myself!
this was really helpful and you make it look so smooth and easy. thank you so much
I’ve been struggling with this in last two wks as I’ve had a change of horse with a longer stride thank you for the advice
Best video about trot so far, thanks ❤
This is helpful! I am learning to post/trot now and I always feel like I'm going to fall off. I think my lower legs aren't being as stable as they should be so I will pay more attention to this during my next ride.
I just started riding a horse and I love this thx
Thankyou for this i have autism so harder to master things but im getting better as its always helpful watching others ride.
Very helpful thanks
thank you for the tips, they are helping me understand how to get better at it.
Great tips thank you. Just had my 3rd lesson and started posting trot.
Love your videos. 👍🏻🤠
Ok, no, this woman is just gifted. She explains and demos with such clarity, it's impossible to not get it. 30 secs in and I see everything I need to work on from saddle fit to my weight. Bless her and Legend (that is l'il ol' Leg, right?)
Thank you I just started and this really helped me!!! :)
Legend is such a beautiful horse! This video really helped!❤
Great learning video, thx
Very professional!
One word and one word only explained this video
:helpfull
Amazing and so simple way of giving information
I started riding a few months ago but i only have a lesson every 2 weeks. My instructor finally let me hold the reins in trot last lesson.i have a lesson this week so am exited to try out these tips
You're great. Thank you
I started to learn riding 4-5 days ago and am having SO MUCH trouble with Trotting, I keep on falling over the horses neck because my weight is on my shoulders and I feel so frustrated that I'm not able to do it, this video was very helpful!! ❤️❤️
Thank you so much I have trying to find some that just works on keeping things simple by either explanation or demonstration I will definitely come back for more videos. Congratulations to you on you professional videos. 🤓
when i was trotting i had no idea how to stay with the horse but the tip with the legs of the horse just made it better
I’ve been riding ever since two and am 11 now and all tips help even if I can already do it
I started riding when i was 5 years old.I even started loving it soo much that i wish i could have a farm and a horse.
your videos heip me so much that my parants are proud, also my sister loves riding. I even follow you.
Thank you! I feel more confident for tomorrows lesson😄 (update thank you for the heart!)
Thank you!! 😀
I had my first lesson last week. I was doing exactly what you said I shouldn't, i.e. using my feet to stand up. This video helps me to understand not just that this is wrong, but WHY it is wrong. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing ❤️ Glad it was a help 😊
Thank so much
Thx. Really your video it’s helping me a lot
This was very helpful for me thank u 🐴
Used to do horseback riding when I was younger just starting again now at 20 I can’t wait
learning this rn!
I don't ride, but i like watching these tip videos. I love to learn about riding for my novels too!
Thank you so much! I'm stuck on the posting haha. This really helped!
Subbed to this channel to understand how I post n trot. I'm a veteran taking horseback riding lessons and this helps!
I'm a pretty experienced rider but posting trots have always been really hard too me for some reason? This helped a lot thanks! :-)
I’m English and I don’t know if that makes a different but we are always are taught this way, so I find it comfortable
I learnt Trot today, I am weighing 100 KG and at the AGE 40. Thanks to your advice and all the videos, I could able to do a proper trot and enjoy the ride. I went through most of your videos, I must admit "I am in love with you" :):):)
Great job!!!!! I am such a better rider now.
I’ve been riding for just over a year now and i know how to do the rising trot but whenever i watch back videos of myself I always rise to high and i never knew why but now i know what i was doing wrong and how to improve it! thank you so much
Thanks for sharing Amelia 😊 I’m so glad it was a help 👍🐴
You great. Thank you
You make it look so easy! I have the trouble with posting to high bc I don’t know how to bring myself up without pushing my feet up, I also don’t know what the correct stirrup length rlly is for me I’ve used many obviously saddle and stirrups change with different horses ect but I feel like I never get the right one. Yours looked super long compared to how I ride mine, my knees are usually bent a lot not like an exaggerated amount but yea. I ride tomorrow so im watching a bunch of tips to improve in my riding
I'm currently on a waiting list to start riding so now I'm only doing dropin lessons and I try to gain as much information about things we did there until next time so that I improve faster and cause I don't get that much help or anything when I'm doing drop in. I have done dropin lessons 4 times now where I have been riding for about 30 minutes each time and last time I was riding mostly by myself cause I have more control now, but the posting trot is something I am really bad at and I don't get that much help from them and tips so watching these videos helps me a lot and it makes me improve really fast.
I AM GOING TO SUBSCRIBE!!
this is reallu going to help me because after caronavirus is finished im going back to the ace high ranch and a trail ride that i did was walking so next time im doing trotting and i think cantering at the beach and im kinda nervous lol
I don't know if I'm still a beginner but I have been riding for 4 years and i am still at a trot. I have a lesson today so I hope this will help me!
I haven't ridden English in 8 years, so my return to a posting trot in a English saddle is a little sloppy. I post in a western saddle too... but english is a whole different ball of wax. 🤣 So thank you! 💖
This is so much help, I'm starting to trot tomorrow and I want to see how to do it 💛💛💛
Hi I just wanted to say that this video helped so much, my first trot lesson went great 💛💛💛
Thank you for this, I have definitely been using my feet to push off, working so hard that after 30 minutes of riding my ankles give out and I experience muscle failure in them 😅 I need to work on doing it correctly
Thank you i wish you were my instructor
Hello another great video thanks for making and posting g yourvideos
Why does this only have 2,500 views there are so many beginner equestrians out there that need help with this and it's so helpful! You deserve at least 5K subs!
Awww 💕Thank you!
This made my day❤️🐴
The horses mane is just gorgeous
I’ve been riding for almost 7 years and I still struggle sometimes with my posting trot! I just recently found your channel and I can say I’ve learned lots! Thanks for the great videos 😀
Thanks for sharing😊 I’m glad it helped👍
Same, my lower leg is never stable like seen on the video, as I never really keep it back so may consider that next time i ride. I sometimes tend to have my legs to far forwards which can throw my balance off terribly and I just end up bouncing loads lol. But in getting better. I also have trouble with allowing my horse to have its head as I tend to keep my hands to close to my stomach.
Thanks! I've found my mistake! When I post, I push myself out of the saddle (too high) and my lower leg looses contact with the side of the horse. (What you said in the common mistakes section).
is it ok if you do a video on how to get the correct position when jumping on a horse. thanks! love your vids xx
Your video is so encouraging, thank you! I am learning on a kickon pony, so am told I need to keep kicking while I am posting. This means unfortunately I can't keep my lower leg quiet as you've advised. Do you have any advice on how I can still incorporate your advice? I'm also not sure what you mean by a stable thigh, would love if you could expand. Thank you! I've just had my second lesson and I can tell I'm doing everything I'm not meant to be doing from your video!
Thank you! I'm only just learning to post, and this helps heaps. Are you able to do a video where you describe a little more about where your weight rests, how you control speed with the posting trot, and if there are any exercises that I might be able to practice in order to train the right muscles to support instead of squeeze when riding and posting to the trot?
Hi 😊
I’m so glad the video was a help to you. Thank you for the video ideas. I will add them to my list. Here is another video that may be a help to you👉 th-cam.com/video/7EWUosIlXeg/w-d-xo.html
I forgot how to post cause I got lazy with it ty!
A thing I would like to discuss that I'm unsure about, sorry if the video already went over it but I find it easier to follow when written down in one. How do I rise up without standing in the stirrups? I get like idk rising and falling but I just can't I don't get it
Hi I just started my horses lessons today but I did my first trot it ways amazing but I just want to do it all the time I want to know how to fixe my rains because my left rains what to meet my right rains so he goes each way
I do canter trot walk jumping and gulp
I’ve been riding dressage for six years and soon I’m going to be looking at a horse and the evaluation of whether we’re a good fit is going to be in the owner’s ap/ jump saddle. I feel like I’m going to look funny trying to post with such short stirrups. Any tips?
A beginner rider here:) Are you supposed to “hold on”/clench with your knees?
Hi😊
You don’t want to grip with your knees. You want to use your hamstrings and quadriceps to help stabilize you. I have an upcoming video were I talk in more detail about this :)
Thank you!
I’m on my third horse riding lesson and I’ve walk, trot, cantered and been over a couple of poles but in the videos of me my hips looked too fat forward compared to the week before. I thought it was my fault but it was actually me improving as I was doing it wrong before, and also the stirrups were too short for me. I’m not in experienced though, I have a friend who’s horses I go to every day, I don’t make any financial contribution but I do things to help out around the two paddocks (with five horses) like poo picking, cleaning grooming equipment, picking out nettles (so we don’t get stung) and picking out harmful weeds, also the lady who lives opposite the paddocks owns one of the five horses and is friends with my friend. She is renovating her house because she just moved in and needs to make a small area for her pony and also do a lot of work because she owns a doggy daycare. So if she needs anything doing, like carrying branches from hedges or trees across her front garden to her fire pit, sawing tree branches, bathing her pony (because it’s a new pony and not yet bombproof and she has no other help ). Or even if it is just helping look after the dogs and taking them for walks at the daycare. In exchange for all that I see the horses every day and groom them as much as I like and can ride them whenever someone else is there (another rider my age who is my friend’s best friend’s granddaughter, who’s 4 years younger than me). So we ride her horses a lot but my trot hasn’t improved much from riding him, one reason is because he is lazy and another is because the saddle is bad (it is a Shetland’s showing saddle) so that saddle is extremely wobbly and thin and generally not good. We’re buying a new one soon though so that might help. This video is great and although this is long so I doubt anyone has read through all this, thanks for listening to my story. Horses have saved me from suicide. And I’m ever so grateful for all my horsey friends.
This is the longest comment I have ever received😁 LOL😂 Thank you for sharing❤️ Horse are amazing animals🐴 There is nothing more healing than a little barn time. Keep having fun and enjoying your journey 💕
JSHorsemanship hehe I enjoy saying stuff to random strangers so I’m the queen of long comments 😂❤️ thanks and Great video
I am 61 and just started riding again after 35 years!! I am loving it. Some people think I am crazy. 😢
I think it’s awesome that you are pursuing your passion😊 I know many riders your age.
You got this🐴
Keep doing what you love 💕
I’m the same age as you and like you have started riding again after many years. I’m loving it(and these videos) but get very stiff muscles. I’m hoping with regular lessons this will improve.😩
can you make a video about sitting trot please. I struggle with this a lot. Thanks!
That’s a wonderful video idea🐴 I will add it to my list 😊
