Let us know what YOU would like to see more of :)

[@syedbaniamin]

Alright, thanks

[@MikaKotikoski]

👍 Thx. This is one of, if not the best video I've seen on the subject!
Also one of my problem areas. One of the excercises I personally find very effective when "softening"/"correcting" your rising trot while actually riding is the "two up, one down" excercise ie you stay in the light seat for two strides and then sit down for one stride ("up-up-down").

[@equicultureandhorseridersm7003]

Thanks, yes that is a great exercise :)

[@maryrose2421]

It is important to keep in mind that in the trot the horse springs forward from one diagonal pair of legs and immediately forward with the other pair. Humans tend to think "forward and back" but in rising to the trot you must think "forward and forward" so it is forward and up BUT also Forward and down not back and down. If you go "back and down" you will get left behind the movement. Otherwise this is an excellent lesson beautifully illustrated. Mary Rose FBHS

Thanks for that Mary :)

[@bikeyspice]

This is a beautiful explanation. Thank you

Thank you so much :)

[@crystalrose4533]

Thank you! It makes so much sense now why I was getting left behind the movement. I can't wait to try this!

[@equicultureandhorseridersm7003]

Great Crystal - let me know how it goes :)

Thank you for watching Constantin!

[@paulahitzler394]

Excellent video!

[@equicultureandhorseridersm7003]

Thank you very much!

[@mingram008]

Excellent video! You have explained the mechanics needed and given great mental pictures! My instructors will point out things done wrong but don’t always have the time to explain why. Sometimes I feel like I’m renting the horse and then coming home and looking it up on TH-cam. Will definitely be looking into your coursework. Thank you very much and I’m looking forward!!!

[@equicultureandhorseridersm7003]

Thank you so much! So glad could help :)

[@mikepatton3750]

I'm now definitely going to subscribe to your channel now 😉😊

[@equicultureandhorseridersm7003]

Great Mike, thank you :)

[@leadingedgebusinesscoachin9134]

Thank you so much for this video its very helpful in explaining which part of the thighs should be engaged. Can you pls explain which muscle of the glutes are working during the rising trot. If i try this without the horse i notice that my glutes maxiumus tense up and im guessing that is not correct?

[@alyssal362]

I have problems with landing softly but i used to get it rly good but i took about a year break

[@equicultureandhorseridersm7003]

That is great Alyssa!

[@BohdanMelnychuk]

Lovely accent 😊

[@equicultureandhorseridersm7003]

Thank you! 😃

[@bluesky060]

Hi hello, do we will we lose count of rising trot if we rise too high?
i mean, if i look at my riding vid, i feel like there’s something wrong with my rising trot. but when i was riding, i also felt i was still on the count, rising when the outside leg up and sitting when the leg down.
i still cannot figure it out

[@janemyers3042]

Hi, yes, you should aim to only rise as high as necessary and no more. It should look effortless.
