Somehow on stirrups and bareback is easier for me, when doing something complicated in the trot/canter I try for a while and if I keep dropping my stirrups I just take em off and do the thing. Having the ability to lenghthen and shorten my legs for different cues and things is probably why. I should get tohse magnetic stirrups lol

I'm more comfortable without stirrup mind I was a dressage rider so theres that..and I'm riding 40 years..but riding in the saddle without them is great for your riding poison ..that and a whip down your bra strap will have you riding looking so well in no time..honestly if you cant ride without your stirrups you dont ride well..your depending upon something you shouldn't be..work on your balance when not riding and you'll see a huge difference..I'm also riding and competing a long time..I dont compete in comps any more Iove endurance rides in this stage if m life..

one thing i have found to help with my eq. my eq was really good and i haven’t been able to ride a whole lot so my eq got worse. but what i did was close my eyes and i naturally went back to how i used to ride. obviously use a calm horse you can trust a lot but that is just something i go back and do every now and again

@Kateyangyuqing

4 жыл бұрын

I agree closing your eyes is really useful, especially for feeling your horse's movement. I'm still getting the hang of feeling the right diagonal when transitioning to trot but when I close my eyes and feel the inside hind leg at its downmost point and rise as it comes up I get it right. And so my transitions between rising trot/2 point trot, canter/trot and walk/trot have gotten a lot smoother from closing my eyes and focusing on the legs' movement. And it's also made a world of difference in feeling when to half halt and understanding the half halt better. I also find closing your eyes and feeling the movement is really useful when riding other horses too because they all move so differently! I've still got a long way to go but feel is something that can't be taught and only practiced, and closing your eyes helps to just focus on that :D But I would recommend being on the lunge if spending a lot of time with your eys closed of course :)

The tying hack you mentioned is how I tie my horse all the time. It works very. I have used it all my life

I stumbled upon this randomly looking into graphics tutorials, but i loved it. I rode my whole childhood. I want to back up your no stirrups comment. My trainer, by all accounts, was a brutish woman, lol. Horses and students alike, feared her ire. She used to make us jump an entire hour with no reins OR stirrups. Not even leading, but teaching us to balance and lead with just the strength of our legs and our feet as guidance. I'll be honest, I rode for almost 16 years before i fell off. I have been bucked, spooked, reared on, but that training made me almost impervious to falling. When i did finally fall, it was while i was training a horse, and we were trying a 5 foot brick wall (wood, obviously), and right before the jump, i must have panicked, and the horse felt it and stopped short. :O) I went flying over and because i had never fallen, and we were not even in a paddock, I held onto the horse's reins until my trainer finally jumped on me and grabbed the reins out of my hands. :) Good memorys. I had to stop riding due to serious hip problems in my 20s, but i miss is deeply. You go girl.

My daughter is horse loving and has the same photo in video backround in her room.

Loved this the most so far, keep doing these with great tips. I had to learn to ride with the whip threaded through my arms, now everytime I mount a horse (and I am 60yrs now) my posture is perfect, I also realised when I was 8yrs and having lesson's that my core strength got better and stronger which relates so much to straight shoulder's and balance when riding, and it creates that deper dish into the saddle so you become one with the horses movements....

Love this!!! You could also use bailing twine as a sweat scraper if your horse is scared of wips

The riding tips at the end remind me of when I learned to ride as a kid. Good memories!

I love this video! There are hardly any actually good hack videos, I think. Also, I totally agree with the recommendation for no stirrups! I'm learning to ride and, when my teacher made me ride without stirrups, it helped me so much to find my seat. I have a tip to add: what helps me to remember to keep my hands upright instead of like I'm holding a shopping trolley is to look at how my stick is sitting. With 'trolley hands' it pokes out to the side a bit and lays across your thigh awkwardly but, with correct hands, the stick goes with the line of your thigh and sticks out backwards. I find this is really helpful because there is a secondary feeling that you're looking out for and the right hand position is much more comfy.

Yay! These will be soo useful. I’m going on camp soon so these will be really helpful when I’m away from my trainer and when I’m doing cross country! Thank you soooo much!❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰

I'm defo a big fan of no stirrups. I've got an excellent instructor who has done this exercise with me from the start and this, along with other valuable exercises like 2 point, has improved my balance so much than when I was with any other instructor. I come out of every single one of my fortnightly lessons feeling a good improvement. Also I find these little exercises to be fun too. We do a few diferent exercsises every lesson and nothing is ever the same or monotonous. My one hour lessons, which I used to get really puffed out with, go so quickly now and I always leave them dying for more!! We usually spend part of the lesson on the lunge, and part off the lunge. A lot of people in Australia have the attitude that the lunge isn't needed once you've been able to get off it for the first time but I'm so glad we do a lot of lunge exercises because it is really really helping me to build a solid seat and balance. And for instance, if I lose my balance for a moment, I never default to hanging on the reins because of all the time we've spent developing balance on the lunge, that my body subconsciously doesn't even think of pulling on the reins as an option whereas I most certainly would have if I didn't do all this lunge work!

Good God girl, where have you been all my life?! Some of these hacks I knew, but I did learn a thing or two (or 3, or 4...) from this video. I'm 62 and got my first pony when I was 6, never been without a horses, and competed (hunter/jumper, dressage student for 10 years) ever since. But as they say in the horse world, "You learn something new every day! I just tried the hack of using baling twine to open a bail, and damn if it didn't work! You now have yourself a loyal viewer! Thank you!

For those who really don’t want to do no stirrups at the trot and canter imagine your hips rotating in a backwards motion, really helped me

I love love love love this video xxx

BEAUTIFUL VIDEO😻

The first pony i ever rode, I outgrew 2 years ago. So, I walk, trot, canter him bareback. He I very obese and a managed to get his weight down a bit from tough lunging and riding. I've gotten very good balance and seat from doing that 2-3 a week, for ten weeks, for two summers. My sitting trot is beautiful!

I have done the no stirrups thing in my lessons. I am like a natural born rider and it helped me improve so much

I love the last one!!

These were so useful! I have a pretty bad eq and i dont have a dressage whip or ant whip but since my dad used to do crossfit i could use one of his poles!

About the Trotting Thing... I learned how to trot riding a Standardbred, retired harness racer. After trotting with him for a while, I went back to riding my OTT Thoroughbred and found him so easy to ride at a trot! I also had a QH-Arab Cross at the time, and he was even smoother! Many years later, I owned another Standie who had this habit of going from a pace to a trot as I kicked him up. He absolutely wouldn't canter under saddle, but would canter in harness. I'd keep spurring him and he'd go faster and faster at a trot, then as he was slowing, slip back into a pace, then a slower trot, then a pace. I can tell you, riding a standie at full trot (as fast as a canter!) teaches you how to trot, and riding a standie that alternates between a pace and a trot at moderate speeds teaches you to pay attention to your gait! I miss cantering. My standie boy had to be euthanized about 8 months ago because of a leg-in-fence injury, and I have just bought my next horse, an unbroken Waler-Curly Mustang cross mare. It's going to be so good to be able to canter again, I so miss going for a good old canter!

My first time doing no stirrups in a trot I fell off for the first time but I have done no stirrups since so now I see how my balance has improved.

There are some great hacks, thank you. The horse I ride has trouble with its hoofs at the moment and we have to bandage it as you showed. They adviced it to wrap the hoof in a diaber first. So it's a bit softer for the hoof.

The whip behind your back really helps! My old instructor would do this but she made me leave it there for a whole hour, let's just say my arms were in a very bad state and very sore so know I am always concentrating on my arms lol

As a vet tech working with an ambulatory equine vet the feed bag hack is amazing. I never thought of that but it's brilliant.😁 New Subscriber

Mostly the elbow thing also comes with a lack of balance. If one works on ones balance it will become easier as well.

@StangmanLover

By doing that, you are literally throwing your horse's balance forward and backward. That is not the way to ride the canter...you're getting in your horse's way. Upper body should stay upright (there will still be some swing as you never want to be rigid), and allow your seat to follow the motion. Any gait you ride your horse in, always follow with your seat. Never your upper body. I would suggest getting a good riding coach. If that's not possible, there are plenty of helpful videos on KZread.

I was at a pony club rally and tied my horse with that (I’d rather he not go running around the show grounds) and OF COURSE Horse Management (😒) came around and argued me on it! Then they went off to get the main HM person and I thought I was dead (even tho I showed them that it was safe) but the HM person happened to be an old family friend from Polo and she basically just looked at me, looked at the horse, said “Oh, Hi Rex” (the horse) and turned back to her people and said “it’s fine.” And walked away. 😂

Something we used to do for a better seat was to have cardboard coasters that you put between you and your saddle and then going through different gaits. If you're in a group it's fun to write down the name of the rider on the coasters and have a competition of who lasts the longest

I dont have a whole lot of exywith horses, afterall I dont have a horse... but I hope to get one, and so I have gone to a couple classes, and my favorite lady made me learn how to ride bareback first, and so when I was put into a saddle, I didnt have a lot of the problems like slouching and bouncing and whatnot.

I always had a pair of cheap flip flops in my trailer for driving home from shows, and I’ve definitely used those as sweat scrapers a few times along with an old dressage whip😂 sometimes you just gotta be a thrifty equestrian!

I already use pool noodles as boot trees for my tall boots! It's a great idea! Lol

Something that also works for me is get an old pair of long socks and put some rice full to the top. And put it in the boot every time you take them off. It also removes any moisture in the boot as well which I get a lot of problem with. But you only have to do this once and last years which is great.

I had to do a crop resting on top of my hands because I ride with my hands sideways and really low. That was a hard lesson burn it sure did help a lot.

In my horse school they always taught us to do the loops until we didn’t get any more rope and my 8y old self couldn’t do all of them 😅 I haven’t riden or token care of a horse in years but these video brought so many memories back!!

I had to ride a year without stirrups because of a fucked up saddle that I had. that helped sooo much with my sits so definitely try riding without stirrups.

I love no stirrups lmao I find sitting trot without stirrups a piece of cake haha

My legs flop around a lot so I use cheap nylon stirrup straps (or binder twine) to tie my stirrups to my girth. I only do this with a instructor and just to flat work. 😁

you could also lengthen your stirrups for sitting trot/canter if you are too nervous
