How to Harness a Horse for Carriage Driving

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I had a lesson with certified carriage driving instructor Gillian McKnight of Carrbridge Carriage Driving in August 2022.
She allowed me to videotape her harnessing her horse Lola so I could remember how to do it when I got home.
I highly recommend taking a trip to Carrbridge and contacting Gillian even if you just want to go on a nice carriage drive through gorgeous scenery.

    I loved this video! But ive got a question. Can you drive a horse carriage without knowing how to ride a horse? I had riding lessons like three times but the lady teaching me was going all over the place and tried me in a trot before i knew how to walk properly. Id like to get more riding lessons at some point but in Tennessee its hard to find a good person to help and teach me at a normal pace.

    That’s odd…most instructors want you to have confidence at a walk before going faster. But to answer your question, you don’t have to know how to ride to carriage drive. Just make sure you find a good instructor with trained carriage horses!

    Why did you using the whip at your driving? I hate using the whip because it hurt the horse.

    In carriage driving I only use the whip while schooling my horses. I don’t use it to “hit” the horse, it is an aid, as is my voice and hands and reins and it acts as my inside leg. You should always carry a whip, even if you don’t use it, in case of an emergency. I would rather carry a whip in my hand and never have to use it, than be faced with a situation where a quick flick of a whip would save us from a nasty accident!

    because in carriage driving you dont have a leg to speed up or slow down the horse, its all voice command. so sometimes if they go the wrong direction or dont slow down they have to use the whip.
