These are great, thank you. I especially like how you explain both the tip and the reasons why in a very easy to understand way. A lot of people that are good with horses are not nearly so good at communicating with humans.

How did hypnotherapy for about 30 years of my life I started really young when I was about 12 and one day we were on a trail small trail nothing major nothing the horses weren’t used to. I had a young horse, and if you know anything about hypnotherapy, the horses are trained for that anyway, we were on this trail and something spooked my horse, and he kept spinning around in a circle. I think he heard a dog off in the distance, and it startled Him? Every once in a while, I think of that, and I wonder what I did wrong because once he stopped, I didn’t really get thrown off. I kind of slid off.😂 being a disabled rider. That was after he stopped, and I lost my center of gravity, obviously😮 I remember the trainer asked me if I wanted to get back on my horse and of course I said yes. I do remember they wanted to keep going because it was a class and I made them after I got back on the horse just stay there for. A few minutes until the horse calm down. I think I did the right thing, but I kind of had to lie and say I needed to calm down because they kept saying the horse was fine. We had to get going I was like no. Because I could feel his heart racing, always wondered if I did the right thing by getting back on my horse I think I did because I insisted on using that horse for the rest of the 3 1/2 months riding class. He was really a great horse. I had no problem with him after that just could never figure out what spooked him and if I did the right thing by getting right back on him needless to say, my English trainer was terrified.😊 I, however, I was not. We had a small competition at the end of the class. There was like six of us all disabled riders, and we placed first thanks to that horse. I never let it be a bad experience because in my early 30s I started hypnotherapy again this time doing western riding and my physical therapist was very impressed from what I remembered when I was a kid. I wonder if I would’ve known about the one rain thing the technique you showed in this video is that would’ve stopped me from sliding?😅 Wonderful video thank you❤

Great tips! Nose behind belly button is one to remember. Also like tip nr. 5. The old-fashioned dogma about 'never letting the horse win" really must go. If it gets dangerous, I do not hesitate to get off and see how we get on on the ground. I'm a confident rider, but I have no death wish, and I have nothing to prove to nobody.

Plus, you don't need to let the horse go to the stall. Work him from the ground and he won't have ""won"'

Clinton Anderson says "make the horse a winner." Then we can both win, by giving him ground work at his level, not too easy and not too hard. Also from the ground you can see better if there is a pain issue, I think it causes them to act up a lot more than I used to.
#5 - I taught an emergency dismount to my students almost from day one. It goes against natural instinct for most because people seem to think they should try to hang on or correct the horse even when they don't have the experience or ability to do so. If you simply jump off without making a fuss over it the horse usually doesn't think he got/forced you off.... like he would if he bucked or dumped you off. He "feels" it was your choice to dismount, you can calm him from the ground and then proceed on.

Lol, I had a habit of taking a dive off of my greenbroke mustang every time he would bolt. Finally found an instructor that taught me how to stop the bolting. Now I just need to remember those skills for my greenbroke domestic bred mustang. (I didn't breed him, not sure of his lineage, as he was a slaughterhouse rescue that I acquired after rescue)
This is a video that absolutely everyone, beginners or regular riders need to watch, incredibly important tools to have in your toolkit, knowing this stuff years ago would have saved me from some life changing injuries (I learnt all these after some very bad accidents) Remember everyone, as in the video, your horse MUST know these things (like the one rein stop) before you ever have to use it. It’s a massive shame that riding schools don’t teach things like this, especially the principle of never using two reins at once on your horse. Be safe everyone, amazing video. 👍👍👍❤️🇩🇰

I think there's a time and a place for both reins. I ride western and to back up both reins are kind of used but it's basically just a block, if that. All comes from the seat and legs but the horses I ride are extremely well trained cutting horses and all I have to is stop riding, sit deep and they'll stop and back up until I sit up straighter and put my hands forward, although I think they just read my mind or they hear my instructor say 'back' lol@@OnceUponaTimeline
I raised my horse from a yearling. One day while out hacking we heard a pack of coyotes yelping and barking it was scary. I could tell my horse was not liking it AT all. I got off and walked him out of the forest (even trying to walk him out was difficult) I knew I could not ride out of there. Now I'm 60 yr and next year will be starting another young one. My last for sure. He will be professionally started. But you just never know with the young ones. Thank you Josie so much for keeping me safe.

The nose behind the belly button, emergency stop and get off your horse (nervous rider cannot make a calm horse) are so pertinent to me! I will definitely watch every video from you. I can’t afford all the training session with a coach I would like to but I spend a lot of time and effort in physical preparation and learning from books and tutorials. Your channel is pure gold for us! Thanks!!!
Nose behind my belly button. Who knew! Thank you Sooo much for that tip! I have a new tool to be excited to try. Thank you so much for this entire clip ❤
Yes, 1 and 4. I have never seen the “raise the other hand up” move on the that one-rein stop, to avoid pitching your body when you grab and shorten the other rein. Really good. Thank you.

I am a novice rider and this was so great to watch! I have learned the one rein stop, but I think my favorite was to not pull back on the reins if they spook and give them nowhere to go except up probably tied with keeping your nose behind your belly button. Makes so much sense. It is such a natural instinct to pull back on the reins to stop them and it will take a conscious awareness in the moment not to do that. Great, helpful video!!

I think it will help a lot for newbies to learn it correctly from the start so that you immediately go to muscle memory of one rein if shxt is going south. I think we only think of two reins because we see it on tv but that can be quickly overwritten with early training.
Yes! The keeping my nose behind my belly button is literally something I have to train my brain to do. If I am nervous or tired I find my body falls forward just as you indicated. It’s hard because it really is a survival instinct! Thank you for the great reminder ❤
I have a 5 year old Arabian mare with Her Own Opinions so these tips are all useful, but I especially love "nose behind the belly button" because it's such a clear visualization. My trainer is great at reminding me to keep my shoulders back and loose, but something about "nose behind the belly button" gives me a stronger image to keep in mind! Thank you!!

Ha ha! Arabs are always trying to see if you are good enough, highly intelligent.
Love when she gave the example at the beginning, that she says "sorry mate" when he was like "what are doinnng gurl ?" cause he s probably used to have her with on a good position 😆 I just realised I might have did the one rein stop by mistake on a paint, he went super fast when we went on the grass and didn't want to stop anymore, I wasnt "that" scared but realised I didn't have any control over him and he would run for 10 kms. So I pulled on the right rein on the side by reflex because I thought that was the only solution I had there to not end up in another country. And he actually stopped 😅 So I think he learnt it in the facility, I just MYSELF never learnt it.
I’m about to have my first riding lesson in 10 years next week, and I’ve been literally binge watching all your videos! I find them so helpful and I love your delivery, I’ve found the nose behind belly button tip most interesting as I wouldn’t have thought of that!! ❤

I flinched when I saw your horse spook LOL Great video
Love number 5. It's OK to get off if needed. Did this just a few weeks ago. My gelding is fine with dogs, but not with a dog chasing a goat as prey. Made my boy explode. Luckily I dismounted before that happened.
My grandfather was a riding instructor for the US Cavalry. Many of his soldiers had never ridden; they needed to be "up to speed" very quickly. The Very. First. Thing they learned from Granddad was how to fall safely. The stable had a barn-sized paddock attached to it, and that's where the lessons started. No one was allowed to ride outside the paddock until they had learned to fall safely at every gait. (I took my first riding lessons in that same paddock; the instructor, too, was a former Cavalry officer, but not my Grandfather. We were NOT taught to fall off; a grave oversight, IMO.)
1 and 5 are my favourite. When I was in my teens and had horses I would get off if I felt worried about the horses behaviour but always felt like a failure so it was great to hear from you Josie, thanks for sharing your knowledge ❤

Yes, it's what we were taught wasn't it...never get off or the horse has won! Very bad advice now that we're older and wiser.
I love the belly button tip. Thank you for giving me something simple to think about as I work with my new horse.
Great no-nonsense teaching. Thank you. As I'm getting older, I'm learning its okay to get off as I'd rather look after myself than prove something. The Emergency Dismount should be 101 learning for riders.
Thanks Josie all of these tips are very helpful to me, returning to riding now my kids are grown up. I surprised myself when a school horse got a fright and did a little sideways runaway, and my old instincts just kicked in before I had a chance to think about what was happening. I leaned back, moved with the horse, and stayed on like glue.

I went for a trail ride, and I felt as free as a bird. Weeks 13 and 14, I felt the old rider was coming back. I lost my job. I haven't had a lesson in 4 weeks. I started a new job last week, so hopefully, I'll get back to it soon. I've had a very physical job, and I'm pretty physically fit. I think this helps.

Great tips- i love tip no 5 the most! Never "feel the fear and do it anyway"!! you can't lie to a horse!
Excellent! Well done! Thank you for including the last tip--I have had trainers (with whom I no longer work, btw), insist on getting back on the horse, literally right after I had fallen and broken my coccyx (going to the doctor for x-rays the next day). I never worked with that trainer again and knew that she had done the same with another rider many months later. Find the best trainer in your area is my tip Number Six ;) ! Thank you so much for posting these; I've been riding for 15 years and yet reminders are so necessary !
Nose behind the belly button! I’ve been concentrating on sitting back and it’s changed my riding! My horse is willing to come through and on to the bit! If I lean forward, I put him on the forehand! And…when he spooks, I’m not in a compromised position. It has put the weight in my seat and feet where it belongs. HUGE!!!!
Nose behind your belly button!! Love that! I've been riding years and never heard that said! I love how thorough you are and your generosity in sharing your knowledge...I've found this to be a rare quality. Thank you

#1 Nose behind belly button is invaluable but every tip is spot on. Thank you not only for sharing but demo'ing on patient Rebel ❤
Watched and loved. All useful. Your one rein method was a new and used tip. Try this. .. I stopped my horse rearing with this: as he starts to go up ( you are naturally forward) grab on rein and pull his head to one side. This unbalances him and he comes down then keep turning him in a tight circle as it’s uncomfortable. Then utterly relax and let him think. Usually they go up because they don’t want to go somewhere and we push too hard. So face him with same problem obstacle and he’ll try again. My horse stopped rearing completely.

Tip #5!! it's so important to trust your instincts. I learned the hard way many years ago taking a green gelding on a camping trail ride with a group. Day one went fine, the next morning he felt really tight. I expressed my concern to a friend, thought I'd better stay back & do some round pen work. She said, "Oh just relax, he'll be fine"... minutes later he blew! Reared up & over on top of me, then ran off bucking. The group had to split up & search, found him 2 miles back in the hills. "Safety is paramount!"
I love the nose behind belly button. That is such a good visual for something I really struggle with. Also loved seeing the one rein stop. Of course, have heard of it a lot, but haven’t really worked on it. I’m always afraid the horse will stumble, which the mare did, but she recovered. Also good to know to lift the rein instead of reaching down to get it. Thank you! I love your videos!!
Thanks Josy for sharing your wonderful tips - things that don't get taught in riding schools & lessons, but literally life-saving to know (once you have your own horse, you need to find out yourself ... 😳). I personally like tips Nos. 1 & 5, especially your advice that no one should ever tell you to stay on if you feel dismounting is the right thing to do. To me, a nervous rider will never calm down a horse is a valuable insight to keep in mind.
Number one is my favorite! I’m teaching my granddaughter to ride and you can be sure we will be watching this together tomorrow. Thank you!
Watched this thinking it would be for beginners. I'm so pleased I did watch! I'm starting a youngster for the first time, so my fave tip is nose behind the belly button. I will forever think of sitting up in that way! My trainer will be so pleased ... thank you for this whole video!

You are an exceptional rider. Most folks need to be very careful with that one rein technique. You can easily tip the horse over that way, and both horse and rider fall.
My favorite is the last one - because used to hear shit like that a lot when I was afraid after a bad accident - all are good - sharing this :)
Thank you so much. The best tip I just learned is that I can get off my horse if I feel unsafe. This is my first month of riding, learning to ride at a riding school.
This is the best horse knowledge put into practice I have ever seen. Thank you so much.
Hearing that it’s ok to get off if I’m too nervous! I broke my tail bone 20 years ago being bucked off a horse. If I ride without stirrups I panic . My whole body tenses, and I have trouble coming back down from the fear.
I've stopped riding my mare several times as I can tell when things aren't going right. It felt discouraging during those times, but I want her to understand how good it feels to be able to have a relaxing ride. I never want her to take away a bad situation, I feel we both have become better partners when I let things go that are truly upsetting for her. We go to ground work. Lately she has been looking forward to our rides together and I'm so pleased we are finally making some progress under saddle. I want to start working on these five tips, safety is important.
Good advice for everyone to know if they love riding horses
So good tips every one! I have used them under decades of riding and Im still alive! You put words to every one! Thank you!😊
I like the tip about nose behind the belly button. Never heard that before, it makes perfect sense. Thank you. Always learn something from your videos.
Favorite was don’t be afraid to dismount. So many people stay on longer than is useful for their level.
Getting off is my favourite tip. Sooo many people try and ride them through it. I was at a show with my 4 year old today, his second show ever, and the music was super loud and he was a bit freaked out by it so I just got off and walked him around in hand a bit and got back on while working on trying to get my own confident mindset back. When I got back on he was soo much calmer and we carried on and did our dressage test and came 5th, so it definitely does pay off to just take a step back to get your horse (and yourself) into a calmer state of mind. Also to note I sang along with the music that was playing which helped me to relax also

The other thing I did when he did spook was actually to disengage his hindquarters so I could get him to stop before getting off. I do that without even thinking these days, the disengage is a great tool.
Ho dimenticato di dire che pochissimi ricordano di parlare di redine di controllo e disimpegno del pisteriore , due manivre utilissime , come viene descritto nel video ! 🤩🤩🤩🤩. Ancora ... suuuuupeeerrr ! ❤
ny favourite is the one rein stop, saved me more than once from a dangerous bucking phone horse
As a beginner these are clear and concise thank You 🙏
I think my favorite is the nose behind the belly button. That's probably the one you should always remember. Then the one rein stop if you get into more trouble. But all these tips are so important! Thank you for another great video!
One rein stop..great tip
I am so glad to have subscribed to your channel. I do loads of the same techniques and I have always been told that I am a chicken💩 for getting off when the ride isn't going good. I would rather keep myself safe and my horse too.
Thankyou for sharing your safety tips! My fave would be nose behind belly button second would be, get off when you don't feel safe and go back to working through it on the ground. Also appreciated your explanation with the reins for a ORS Great advice! 😊🇦🇺
Love the last comment! I started riding a year ago and got so spooked by him, so I stepped off! I took groundwork lessons and didn't got on him for 3 months. And got another teacher. Now we are best friends ever! And all the fear is gone!
I owe you a heartfelt thank you so much for the nose behind your belly button advice. Do this while walking, have not been on horseback for umpteen years. Best wishes from a granny in the NL!
Thank you for your clip. I haven't ridden in 45 yrs. I have a plan for the end of the year and think that I would be able to gain my confidence with my riding skills.
The last line strikes a chord ❤👍
Thank you so much for this! Nose behind the bellybutton is a really great “visual” for me to keep in mind. I have a young horse in training and he has a bolting tendency, so your tip will be of great help to me! Also, THANK YOU for the reassurance that getting off my horse when things are about to get scary is OK. I’ve always said this and I feel some people just don’t get it. I get off, work with my horse on the ground (whether it’s an arena or on the trail) and I get back on when things are calm. I take it as a learning opportunity for the both of us. Great video!
Nose behind the belly is another way of saying "sit up!!" A trainer taught me that and it has saved me multiple times. Been my favorite mantra for years. Enjoyed all the tips and thank you.
This video is so good. We should be teaching people to sit a buck safetly so they are never in danger.
Thank you! Nose behind belly button averted a potentially dangerous situation today. Best of all, both horse and I are ok. Great tip!
The first one is my favorite !!! Thanks for sharing !
Thank you so much for these tips. I especially appreciated tip 5. I am afraid to ride my horse at this time, and am always castigating myself for it. He is a super gentle, sweet gelding, but I let a kid ride him and she taught him the one thing I didn't ever want him to learn: bolting gets the rider off and he gets to walk home. I can put others on him in his large pen, and he is super gentle. It's me that is the problem, not him. You just let me know that it is ok to be afraid and back off, without "ruining" the horse. I am still working through my riding fear, and I will be taking your tips along with me.
I've been taking Horsemanship lessons for about 8wks, I love watching your video's, they are very helpful for me to take what my coach says in my once a week lessons and keep them fresh in my mind. Today my horse was a bit excitable, weather is changing and there has been a lot going on at the ranch. All was going very well when the wind picked up suddenly and the dried corn and a nearby garbage bag rustled. My horse spooked and took off. I had just watch this video last night. I am just learning to trot and even though he went into a run, I was able to stay up with my nose behind my belly button and ors. Of course my coach also jumped in to help. But rewatching this helped me to feel more confident that I did everything right. Thank you.
My favourite has to be number 5, I cannot count the number of times I was forced as a child to stay on ponies and horses at various riding schools, that I wanted to get off. Mostly it ended up with me falling off, (on one occasion as a 12 year old, on an ex racehorse, much against my will and abiltiies, obviously hating the wind, who bolted, ending up with my knee hitting a tree, and having knee trouble for the next 59 years), so I gradually becoming a very nervous rider. I still love horses but am just too scared of unknown horses to ride. When I took my children to a local riding school, I told them both, if you're not happy, get off, don't let anyone make you stay on, and we'll go somewhere else (their riding school was fine, and they both did well on sensible ponies).
I´m currently breaking in my horse and this was very helpful! Thank you.
Love all five tips! I've ridden for 65 years and always love learning new things. My favorite is nose behind belly button!
In March of 2023 I purchased a 2 to 3 year old wild Mustang I had had some prior and I grew up breaking horses the day before I was supposed to mount this particular horse I ended up in the hospital for a month and I almost died of sepsis and heart attack and being in a coma when I woke up I couldn't move any of my limbs from my neck down it was like I was paralyzed it took me months to recover be strong enough to be able to walk get out of the wheelchair and walk with a walker and a cane once later I'm finally able to walk on my own two feet and I still had this horse to break I've been on her twice and I fell off no I've been on her three or four times I fell off twice not because of the horse because I simply didn't either have the strength to just stay on or I had forgotten to sit back like you said but it's like I just slide right off and I've been riding for over 40 years that's a great tip I'll have to make sure I'm doing that next time I'm out her
Great tips! Thank you!
Number one , definitely , great one
I have saved myself many times with the one rein stops. I teach it to all my horses and students. I teach it on the ground then in the saddle. I walk a few steps ask for stop using one rein. Until as soon as you pick up the rein they are already shutting down. But this has to be taught. Like as was said in the video.
Excellent tips & samples after!!
I’m in the process of review with my older horse I’ve had for 19 years. I used to be an assistant coach with therapeutic/English riding. I now have long term health issues that have prevented me from riding consistently over the last 5 years. I was feeling a bit rusty, I decided I needed to do some review. I came across the channel as I was researching similar videos. I stopped dead and subscribed when I heard you say if you do not feel safe dismount. I used to receive a lot of criticism but sharing that with my students! I started with an earlier video of ground work, I really enjoyed disengaging the hind end on the ground. Now I’m ready to do it again under saddle! I love your easy going way and simple clear communication! 🐴👌😁
Brilliant video!!!
Excellent tips! I've had close to 50 years' experience, and I STILL needed to be reminded of these! Thank you!
Thank you Josie!! Very helpful!!

Your such a great teacher ,
"A nervous rider would never make a horse calm" great sentence Josie! I will try to keep it in mind meanwhile I ride haha I'm a bit anxious but I put a lot of guts 😅, I usually ride quiet horses (more or less) and the other day I ride for the first time a mare and it's not green but she is very attentive to all I had my first "spoke exp" on her as u show in the second frame but I keep calm meanwhile so 💪😁...thanks for this amazing videos!
I think all the tips are great! Thanks!
Excellent lesson
Good tips. Thankyou .
All 5 were so good I'm not sure I could pick a favorite. Perhaps the one I need to pay attention to most is putting my nose behind my belly button. I've never had a good sense of core engagement and we ride in rough terrain. I've had horses spook and I've stayed on and then times where I have come off and I always felt that it was because my core wasn't engaged and I wasn't sitting properly. I plan to rewatch this video again so that I can really pay attention to what you're teaching us. I know it will help. Thank you for great advice!
You are just so wonderfully down (under) to earth. And, at the same time totally competent! Love your videos and your work!👌🫶
Thank you. Great information to be reminded of. I especially love number 5 because so many people only focus on time in the saddle. Appreciate the support.

The way you explain is so clear, and it's so nice to see you not be afraid to include clips where things have gone wrong and the way you dealt with them, especially when you're training green horses and they occasionally get spooked or are unsure of what to do.

I just love your channel! Such great, simple concepts that are brilliantly explained. Thank you!
This was amazing at my last riding lesson I jumped for the first time and the horse ride got excited over the jump and went into a slow canter and I didn’t know what to do so I just stayed in my two-point. Surprisingly I stayed on, but it was a slow canter so thank you for this tip because if this happens again, now, I know not to stay in the two point and become like a little ball. Tysm
Love the keeping the nose behind the belly and the emergency break! I’ve been in a situation with an out of control horse post falling and getting back on and that would have been so useful!

This is timeless and so helpful it gave me confidence to start my big moving 16.2 three year old because I knew I would be able to retain controls . Josie is so practical and full of wisdom .
