- Today I am talking about how to sit the canter. Sitting the canter sometimes is challenging, but a rewarding experience when you do it correctly. In this video, I explain how to sit the canter properly and also common issues such as how to sit the canter without bouncing and avoiding rolling the shoulders. I hope this helps you in your quest to become a better rider and you learn how to sit the canter better :)

When I canter It’s hard to think about your hips and stuff I’m just thinking about if I fall off 😆
God that made me howl laugh. I am totally with you on that one 🤣🤣👌
AGREEEEEE
Yea
Exactly! Please tell that to my coach 🤣
Girl same lol
I rode a horse and he tried to canter which i had never done before, i panicked and ended up falling off onto my stomach, this video really helped me to understand how to position myself and what rhythm i must go at, thanks!
Recently my horse took off with me and cantered all around the arena (I couldn’t stop her) and I had never cantered before. I was bouncy and leaning way too far forward. I really want to try it again correctly though!
Cladeleine Schmaves hah first time I did I tried to post the first few steps and my trainer was like “umm.. what are you doing? Just sit back in the saddle”
@@kittycatdays8719 I just started English after riding Western, I asked if i should canter and she was like no, this is actually the same as Western. 😂
KC MyAdvice Keep your back Straight And keep Your arms Parallel to Each other while holding the reins securely and tightly and of the situation really got out of control hold onto the saddle with your fingers but don’t hold on to the front of it hold Under it
If*
Did you find this helpful? Are there any topics you would like covered in a future video?
Thank you
Can u please tell how to control a horse if the horse is in gallop in a straight line
I’m really having trouble keeping my heels down while following the motion.
hi Joan, how about a video on how to call for a canter i.e. Walk to Canter and Trot to Canter Transition. .Looking Forward.. Thanks.
yes very helpful. my problem with canter is that for some reason I always squeeze my thighs and knees and bring them up making me lose balance. I can't keep my legs down and long. and I always lose the stirrup and have trouble getting my feet back in them. (I'm more comfortable doing a canter without stirrups but my coach doesn't want me to do that.) the same thing happens when Im do sitting trot my knees always go up and I bounce and lose balance.
My anxiety with his forelock under the browband at the start: 😫
Same ;-;
Same /:
Ohh gosh- just saw it
Same
Yaaaas,I feel the same
You made a really nice thumbnail! Really pretty👏
Thnx😀
Really though she did
Yea
i havent cantered yet but i will maybe be cantering in my next riding lesson and untill then i will be working on all the streches you demonstrated!
im sorry but im not the only one super ocd about the forelock in the browband at the first part of the video
Lol😂 that’s interesting. I will make sure to leave it out next time 😉
Omg same
That as not at all what OCD is though,, pls
omg ikr
Lol just commented abt this too
When I cantered for the first time I seemed to accidently lean forward a bit which made my horse uneven and now I watched this video it helped me
Same
My trainer was never capable of telling me what am I doing wrong and why. I had to figure it out by myself and when I realised I’m leaned back I didn’t know how to solve it until I came across you. Thanks a lot!
I was bouncing way to much before I found this video, I’ve been trying to sit my canter for months. I took your tips into consideration and finally sat my canter!! Thank you so, so much.
Get 👏 this 👏 girl 👏 to👏 1k 👏
I cantered for the first time today!!
And my trainer was shocked that it was my first time because I was going along very smooth and wasn’t bouncing up! It was amazing
Whohoo! 🥳 That’s so good! Keep riding, it’s worth it! ⚡️
Aww I'm so happy for you! Great job, your efforts are paying off! Hope you're still having a great time riding!
i can’t follow the motion with my hips no matter how hard i try
Hi Lena:)
Thanks for reaching out. One thing that can help if your having trouble fallowing the Motion with your hips, is checking that your knee to hip angle is open in a kneeling position. Another thing you can do is stretch your hip flexors off of the horse. Here are a couple videos that may help th-cam.com/video/PgIpnpWFOmk/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/kiLI-J3I3Lg/w-d-xo.html
yea it's hard for me too but I'm getting used to it
Don’t force yourself! Just let it happen! Just relax.
Great demonstrational video, thank you!!
Lena x yaaaas
Very helpful as I just stiffen up and lean back. This has helped me learn what to aim for visually!
Hi Lou E Begg😊
I’m so glad it helped 💕🐎
I just started to learn how to canter, this is really helpful to me because I’m just all over the place
I like that you tell what you can do to fix the problems outside the riding lesson. My riding teacher tells me what I’m doing wrong but not what I could do to fix it
I tend to stick my elbows out. That causes my shoulders to move up and down like I have no control of my body 😂
Thank you so much I'm gonna try this in my next lesson! I struggle with bouncing and moving my arms to much and sometimes I also lean back
I have two problems with canter🤔
1. I don't know how to start canter from the right leg(for the horse)
2. I sometimes lose my stirrups
I had those problems at the last stable I went to ride and it honestly was a terrible place for both learners and the horses couldn't go into paddocks and had to be in stalls all day unless they went to one of the "classes" and then there they wouldn't behave well ☹️ The trainers weren't very good either, so I'm searching for a new stable but also trying to understand my own mistakes. Really grateful I found this channel♥️
Helena The Weird One make sure your weight is on the stirrups! That’s way it’s harder for your feet to slip out! :)
Omg me too. I am looking for tips too and correct my own mistakes
You should see my canter, I look like I’m a maniac 😂
Great video though!
After watching this I realized that when I first started cantering I leaned back too much and my legs were going everywhere, but this video really helped me and I improved without even realizing it over time.
I usually hunch forward so ima try these tips in my next lesson!
Very useful video. I'm still a beginner in horse back riding. I started following your channel recently and I learn a lot from you. Thanks from the bottom of my heart.
Today I cantered for the second time ever and I fell off the horse. I was too tense which caused me to lose my strength, my body got tired and I just flew. But I love the feeling of being in canter and I can't wait for my next class.
Thank you for this video as it shows perfectly how the tension in my body led me to bouncing too much, getting tired and in the end losing my balance.
I tried cantering for the first time yesterday and I lost control completely, my feet fell out of the stirrups, my bum was out of the saddle, my hands were too high, I completely lost confidence to do it again. How do you still remain confident to canter again?
@@brookebarrett3306 I had a good experience as well. It keeps me going. Some three weeks ago I fell off again and it was pretty bad as I injured my hip. But still I didn't lose my motivation. The only thing bothering me at the moment are younger girls laughing while I'm learning. Everyone is cantering without issues, just me still gripping to the saddle and being in panic mode. It's a bit frustrating to be honest.
Thank you so much for this video! You broke everything down so well!
Great video! This really helped me improve my cantering! Thank you so much for making this!
I have just started cantering and i am love it these steaches will really help thank you so much.
I had my first canter yesterday and it was amazing, I lost control during the transition but got it back during the canter. I did feel like my but was off of the horse a lot of the time so thank you for this video I'll apply this to my next lesson ☺️
Me too!
Thank you so much for the info! My first canter was amazing because of you! 😊
Thank you so much! This really helped me out! I just started riding and I’ve just realised I’ve been leaning too much forward and my legs were sitting wrong! Keep up the good work, u really are helping people out!
Myyy god her teaching style is just amazing. Can't thank you enough for all the value you're giving me 🙏🙏🙏🙏♥️
Fantastic video, great pieces of advice, thank you!
I’m so happy to find others who are mainly working on the trot, I always feel dumb when I’m with girls who can canter,jump,etc! This helped so much! Thank u!
I used to have a sloppy canter but you helped me so much tysm!!
I recently started working at a canter about a month ago, and I can't seem to get it right. My horse loves to canter, and she is great at it, but I can't seem to sit it well. Thanks for the video!
My horse has extremely short strides so I hope these tips will help me sit her lope easier. Thanks for the tips!
Love the simplicity of your instruction , thankyou very helpful
Her taking about gripping with the legs me experiencing my first canter 2 months ago when the horse spooked and took off I didint fall off though so it was a success
Always informative. Thanks for the tips there. Hope you having a great day!
I know you usually do short videos but Could you post videos of any lessons you ride in or teach or any clinics you attend? It’s a great way to learn when watching others in lessons and hearing the instructor as well as seeing correct and incorrect during a lesson when s student is learning.
Hi Kathy😊
thank you so much for reaching out.
I agree that watching lessons and clinics are a wonderful way to expand your knowledge and develop your eye as a rider. This is something I’ll work on doing in the future.
Very useful, I've been doing the canter at lessons but for a while, I've always been bad for leaning back which really does no favours to your seat... Now I'm more settled in the upright position and also keeping my hands lower - seeing the difference is really helpful. Will definetly be trying out those exercises to help with movement and build up strength.
you are such a good rider and you help me so much
Thank you! My trainer said that we will maybe try cantering next Tuesday so this really helped.
Aaa I love these tips, new subscriber! 💖
Thank u so much this helps me so much! I started cantering last week and this video help.
Omg when I watched this I new I had to try I was struggling with sitting my canter and I had to try out your opinion, and when I did, it helped me so much you are a great help. Thank you so much.🎉
Thanks for a great video, the slow motion and corrective suggestions are very helpful.
This video is really helpful because my instructor is having me start canter next week and I don’t know the right positions so thanks for helping with this!!

Getting started in the canter can feel scary at first. It sounds like you have a good plan😉 Thanks for the positivity💕 keep up the good work 🐎

Your mini lessons are thoughtfully concise and easy to follow. I find their bullet point like presentation make them a more than handy pre ride brush up check list. Thank you from Australia.
Happy to hear that 😄
So many good tips
Really helpful clear explanation. Thank you. A
Thank you so much!!!! This was so much help!
I might start showing and I’ve been cantering for a long time but I struggle with it
This helped a lot!!!!!
You deserve more credits your videos are so helpful
Until recently I always went into a jumping position when trying to canter, until I went to a different riding school and they told me this! I would always lean too far back though, so this video was very helpful!
So helpful
this was amazing this is definitely gonna help me !!
next week i'm going to try another canter, this video should help me a lot :)
This video is so good for me. I just learnt canter snd I kept bouncing. I lost my stirrups. This helps me a lot.
🥰🥰☺️☺️
That's very helpful, now I know where's my mistake. Thanks a lot ❤
This helps me so much!!! Thank you!!
This really helped me. Thanks 😘
Very nice video, thank you!

That was really helpful .. thank you 🙏
Hi thank you so much I really needed this!
This is so useful
Oh my goodness thank you!
Thank you so much!!
Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much this has been very helpful I often leab too far forward whilst in canter and freak out my horse so this has helped so much!!
*lean
This helped me very much
Thanks 🙏 this was so helpful
Very useful thanks .
I really needed this video 😅
Brilliant. Thankyou hugely!
Yes that is something I struggle on at my Horseriding I really need to work on my canters because I get a little bumpy so I’ll try the advice
The horse I normally ride, his name is River. He tends to start going faster and he’s not the best listener. While trotting, if you let him he would just start to canter. This video really helped for my next lesson. If he starts cantering I would at least know how to position myself correctly, and even impress my trainer 🤣
Thank you this helped me so much :D
Thank you for the great videos
When I canter I only think about falling off 😂
This video really helps though x
Wow this helped me a lot!
