One of the best, most informative videos I have ever seen on transition aids. Thank you both so very much
I know this video was made 2 years ago but it’s one I’ve come back to several times since I discovered your videos earlier this year, Amelia. I’ve been successful in really improving my trot canter transitions in recent months with your help. This and your many other canter videos are so valuable. “Sit tall, breathe out and subtle aids” are my take home messages.. Thanks so much. Barb.
Yay Barb! Thanks for sharing this and I'm really glad to hear the videos are helpful!
Very nice to see the examples of good and bad transitions! Keeps me going and motivated to keep working on them!
Great video! I loved seeing you ride a transition "wrong" and then showing the correct way. Currently working on transitions myself and this will help immensely. Thank you!! 😄🐴👏👏
Oke
Terimakasih atas kunjungan Anda
Oke
Going from jumper to dressage with a phenomenal trainer. This is going to make my lessons a lot better for me
So glad to hear that!
That was awesome seeing all the wrong ways to ride!
It's so funny how much you guys (the viewers) like the how NOT to ride videos!! 😂😂😂
Her bad riding is better than my good riding
@@AmeliaNewcombDressage It makes it easier to understand if we can see the difference.
Amelia, this is a great video. That subtlety of the half halt to bring the horse's hind underneath rather than to slow down the horse is fantastic, I had never heard it presented that way. This is an excellent video and tip. Thanks so much for sharing it!
Oke
Another wonderful video, thank you so much for sharing, you give me hope.
Really good! I have difficulty "convincing" my horse with my seat and/or legs that I really want him to do something. Something I've not yet mastered is the proper, clear and convincing cues for different transitions. It's all so subtle when done correctly, but for the horse it is "in a clear and loud" enough voice for him to understand what is wanted. I love seeing it broken down into parts. It helps me think it through and visualize. Thank you Sue and Amelia, and Ludo!
This is very helpful for me too the last comment says it all for me too! Thanks so much!
Good , very useful information , thanks , please upload such more videos for further information
Extremely valuable video! Love the easy to understand description of the transition aids.
What a novel idea! I'm thinking I'll try your idea and then maybe just put a piece of tape that is quite narrow where I can see (maybe?) the horse and hands. That way the tape line reminds me to look up. I also purchase my sunglasses at the Dollar store due to the fact I either loose or break them. That way I don't feel like I lost a lot of money. Thank you for a great idea!
This was a super video Amelia! And the commentary during was instrumental in helping me understand what you were doing. Can’t wait to try practice! Thanks so much!
Great video! Really great descriptions of the aids! What a wonderful horse and so patient.
I really appreciate all of your videos. Thank you.
Thanks a lot, Amelia! Very nicely illustrated and explained!
Love this vid. For a new rider this is quite helpful. Thank you for this.
Amelia your videos are concise and spot on! Using the correct aids in transitions is so helpful and sets a nice foundation for everything else I do in Dressage. Many thanks!
Beautiful horse and nice tips.
Great tips! Exactly what I was hoping for! Thank you!
Another great one-lots of info-will def watch this repeatedly-I’m a beginner dressage so this again helps me move forward quickly so much appreciated
Loved the video. Really clear explanations and demonstrations. Thank you for adding to my learning journey ❤️
Thanks! I've had trainers tell me different things over the years on how to complete my transitions. The one I have now says for trot to canter to put weight on the outside seat bone and scoop with the inside seat bone, and then later added to also put my outside leg behind the girth. I always felt awkward with my pelvis doing multiple motions, had a problem with cantering on the wrong lead, my horse hollowing her back, and lower scores on my tests on effective use of aids. I will use this technique now.
Phenomenal video! Great information 🙄 Thank you 💜
Amelia, thank you again for this very hepfull video. It helped me today for trot-canter-trot transitions and to halt without my hands. My Connemara got it right away. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😁🎉
Great vid...love your doggy🤗🐕
Excellent video!
Loved the video this really helped me.
Very helpful! Thank you
Thank you! That was so helpful
Wow this is a fabulous vid !....thank you so much !!!
Are we sure these two ladies aren't related? Blond, competent, knowledgeable, articulate ectomorphs with soothing and calm voices. Love this video as usual, going to work on my seat and transitions with my mare later today.
Perfect video!!!
That was a really helpful video. Thank you. I haven't ridden in many years and am not young anymore. Plus, I've only ever ridden Western. I'm hoping to have a better idea of what I'm doing when I start again. I think this will really help.
Thank u for this video because I don't have good canter transitions and this video keeps all the points in the forefront of my mind while I practice and eventually I know it will improve!
Have you seen my free guide to canter? I think you'd like it: amelianewcombdressage.com/canter-with-confidence-o/
great video, very useful
Really nice video!
Absolutely love this video sequence and also come back to it for review! I have just recently switched Horses and both of us are relearning! Love your channel. #RiderFromCanada
Thank you for being here! Hope to see you at the webinar this weekend; amelianewcombdressage.com/free-pirouette-webinar/
excellent !
Quality riding lesson
Excellent video and great explanations. Although I ride Saddleseat style, not dressage, the aids used are quite similar. Would have been perfect if we could have seen both sides of the horse when canter signal was being given.
So helpful :)
Good stuff
Hi Amelia, I sincerely appreciate the content on this channel. If hope someday you could consider a video on how to tell if a horse is evading due to brattiness or physical limitation. I ride a 15 year old Oldenburg mare, trained dressage thru 3rd level. She is described as insecure, hard to ride. I just started riding her a month ago. She is unfocused and disconnected front to back. She is hard in the mouth. When is a horse resisting and evading correct aids and what do you do for a horse who is sort of burnt out of riding. I am enjoying riding and caring for this horse despite what my instructor keeps saying. I trust the instructor's judgement, but I am having chiropractic care due to misalignment. How can I know if an older horse doesn't respond to riders due to physical problems. I may lease her. Her stable manners are wonderful. Her owner doesn't ride her anymore, due to work schedule. Happy riding :)
I love your videos. Would you be able to do these demonstrations in rising trot? I’m an armature eventer so therefore do my dressage in rising trot not sitting xx
Eres un genio!!! Mi héroe
Gracias!!!
anyone got any advice for me?? at the stables where i ride , i ride a 14-15h cob gelding that really likes jumping(like a lot) if he feels like it ,he canters off with me over the jump froma complete standstill. Im only 5 foot1 and really skinny so i cant really stio him . Anyone got any advice on how to help slow him down??
Any seat aids to get a "lazy" horse moving from standing still to walk or just leg pressure?
The knee pressure to get a halt is a bit confusing to me, as my understanding is knee/leg pressure is what to do to move fwd. Just heard the term 'half halt ' this wk, so trying to learn as much as poss. Thank you!
Hi! Thanks for watching and subscribing! The half halt can take some time to get the hang of but it's like a comma in a sentence.
To get your horse to walk you should use your leg aids gently at first, and then if the horse doesn't respond to this give a harder and sharper leg aid. Then repeat this until they move, this will teach them that if they ignore the gentle pressure, the harder pressure will happen and they will learn to heed the lighter aid.
Here's a video on the aids which might help you!

Love the video, very helpful. But is the see sawing action during the halt correct? I'm not being a jerk, actually curious. I was under the impression that it was never okay to do that, but I'm far from a grand Prix rider myself!
Hi. Thanks for the comment. In a perfect world, no. But if you have a horse that tends to lock up and freeze the jaw, sometimes gently moving the bit back in forth in their mouth can help them loosen and chew the bit...
Hi thanks for the reply and answering my question and not taking offense!
This is all very fine, but how long do you have to practice this, I ride a horse that is supposedly easy to get into canter, I seriously could do five circles before I get any reaction. I'm really frustrated as others seem to do nothing and get canter and I end up bloody exhausted every week. Grrrr.
It sounds like you have to ride many more transitions and get him responsive for your leg :)
hes behind your leg. one word- T RANSITIONS
what is the purpose do we care if the horse has a hallow back when iam just riding in the field or is all this work just for a ribbon or to show others see I know how to ride and you don't ?????
michael Samuels it helps engage the whole spine because the horse in the good situation will have a spine that is curving towards the rider. This way it is able to carry the rider more efficiently and comfortably. It is a big topic and increases your horses health. Think of their back like a hanging bridge that gets support like that in the middle
How do you correct a horse that uses their neck to balance into the canter? This horse also inverts into the canter which goes with the territory....We are talking about a Friesian. Thank you.
Be a little annoying with your hands when the heads up (not aggressive just annoying) so the horse starts trying different things to make you stop that. At some point hopefully rounding the neck a bit it one of them and you can make a big fuss and reward. I have zero idea if any of this is normal it's just what's working for me so far.
I I am not a negative person and certainly I’m not bashing anyone here. I applaud your work and all the help you give riders all over the world. However, I am concerned about the lack of connection through these transitions. The poll should be at the highest point at all times. It looks like this horse is evading contact by curling in.
Also of note: One of the “bad” trot canter transitions actually produced a better canter with more uphill balance and jump because the poll was up so the horse was able to jump underneath himself.
It's showing mistakes not perfect riding. Are you a know-it-all miss perfect barn 🧙♀️
Good video but would be a bit more helpful if the transitions were performed in front of the camera instead of off side, of worse, behind the instructor.
All too fast...feedback all too fast
Very helpful!!! Thank you
