    As a current member I can't even begin to explain just how much Alicia and Your Riding Success have helped me improve my riding. I went from feeling like I was never going to "get it" to improving more in the past couple months than I have in the past few years. It's made me really really enjoy riding again and I'm so excited to continue to learn, improve and see where it takes me xx

    Sorry I am kind of late to the video! Thank you so much for giving us all the AMAZING opportunity to have a subscription to DMA for a month! It is going to help out so many of us! Alicia, you really do strive to change the equestrian community and you are doing an excellent job! In return, we all owe it to you to get YRS to 1 million subscribers because you have done so much for us all! This video was so helpful! It is always great to have a refresher on how to do some things! My biggest takeaway from the video you be to ask for your canter transition in one action with the outside leg. Thank you so much for being the wonderful and helpful person you are!

    "Don't try it again until you've got balance." Seriously maybe the most important take away here for me. Working on teaching the changes...and canter pirouette canter ...and I have a tendency to just ask in the spot I planned even if the preparation hasn't gone as planned...and of course I get a crap answer. I need to remember this EVERY time! So easy to remember

    I stumbled upon the channel searching for something else dressage related. However, found myself binge watching everything. I've a 4 yr old AQHA, we're both learning dressage (I've ridden western pleasure for 20+ years). Anyway I work with a trainer in the States, but felt compelled to comment on this specific vid as the exercises helped MORE THAN ANYTHING IVE DONE with my little mare. Thank you so soooo much. Exploring more of what you've got! Thank you!

    Biggest take away this time is definitely to take the time to make sure you have what you need before trying for something else. (I.e waiting for canter until the trot is big and balanced) it was cool to watch the study session with the DMA members. Thanks to everyone who's helped support our learning ❤️☺️

    SOOoooooo helpful to finally understand when the back leg is on the ground is the moment to ask. So much time wasted bouncing around in sitting trot wondering why I missed the moment. And the not understanding why on another attempt it just happens like magic. Totally demystified. Makes perfect sense!

    This is so cool. It's so hard to find good horse people like Alicia (I've been trying). I like how you talk about the back leg being on the ground. That makes so much sense now! It really helps with a lot of trot-canter issues. I also like that you don't start the canter until you have balance.

Confirmation like your explanation asures me so much and my confidence is back again. My husband video's every ride. I explain to him what to look for and after the ride l judge myself to see what l do wrong. The banana, traintracks everything you say is worth gold!

    Thank you so much. You make it all so clear. Is makes sence. Prepair, be straight, weight on the horse,'s outside leg having the weigth ehich you will know when you sit in rise trot and only a simple pop with your outside leg behind the guird. Pop, pop, if not the moment or goes wrong aboard and try again. So amazing. Just practising this movement of pop and where and at what moment is so good and only do it if your horse and you are vertical. Everything you say makes sence. Never seen a teacher teach it and explain it like you do. Your video's are fantastic! And what l like about you is everyone is welcome! You do not see that with others this way. I start the day calling loud " Hi Superstar Rider!" to myself. You and your team are amazing!!!! Still got so many video's to watch but l love seeing them and learning every second! Thank you and your team so much for making it possible for everyone spec. for those who can not afford lessons.

    This was so helpful, and a lovely insight into the DMA programme, thanks Alicia and the DMA members for letting us watch and learn! I’m sorry, I haven’t commented on other videos this month as I’ve been unwell but I’ve been learning lots from them. My biggest learning here was to ask for canter in one action with the outside leg - I sometimes grip when I don’t get the canter transition first time, or just panic! So another learning was to take it back to where the trot is good before asking again. Thanks so much! x #Harlow

    great look inside your DMA program. Great advice to teach a horse to canter correctly. I understand now what to do with young horses which fall in on a circle in order to get them into canter. I was always thinking it was me not asking correctly when in fact the horse can't get into canter when falling too much in. I was always so frustrated, but now it is more reassuring for me and I got really some good tips in this seassion. thank you Alicia.

    Thank you! I've been struggling with us running into our canter as well. It's my fault as I didn't want to put him into something uncomfortable and have let him run into it. Luckily my wonderful coach has held my hand a little and has been my eyes on the ground to help me distinguish if its pain/strength or just him being a brat! I've been bringing him back in the trot before pushing him up into it. It has been improving but watching the DMA videos here, he definitely falls in during out transition. I next ride, along with my other homework, I'll be sure to keep him from falling in and see how much that makes it easier for him!

    Just as I thought I had learnt so much from you along comes another BIG learning curve. The footage of the horse leaning in the canter transition really opened my eyes and I find I am nodding to agree with all you explain. I always thought my horse deliberately took 3 strides to answer my canter aid but now I see he just wasn't in a balanced position to be able to respond promptly. I am now on a mission ! His quarters no longer trail in the leg yield and he doesn't lean in on the corners. In fact everything is better. Thanks again Alicia.

    Watching video = I am inspired to go and try this helpful information with my 🐎 today. Biggest takeaway is remembering to keep the weight on all four feet even and why the counter bend in the circle works to rebalance. I must say that a pop with my outside leg whilst the outside leg is coming forward has improved our transition so no more squeezing with legs for me! 😊 Love love the study groups absolutely the best way to learn 💖

    I fiiiinally got the time to watch this one. I paid a lot of attention to the advice on doing a counter bend on a circle to keep the weight on the outside hind leg. I will definitely try to do this. And as I was sitting here thinking "how do I know when the outside hind is about to hit the ground - how do I know when to make the aid", someone asks this. THANK YOU. And it makes so much sense and makes it a lot easier for me to do as I really rarely do a transition to canter from rising trot. But I will for sure be trying that to make sure I give the aid at the right time. Thank you so much for so many great learnings once again.

    This is amazing! You guys are saints. I don't have a horse right now, but I hopefully will by the end of the month. I would love to do the 30 days! I don't want to take a spot when I won't be riding for half of the 30 days. ♥️😁 Learning that there are actual steps/rules you can take to get a better transition is my biggest learning! I have never heard it broken down like that. What I have been told my whole life isn't close to the brain explosion I just had. Using the wall and one circle! Not "forcing" when its wrong, kinda of a quality over quantity thing. ♥️♥️ And the down in the rise! What?! Another brain 💥!

    Incredible explanation, as usual, Alicia! I have been trying the 1/2 circle in leg yield, then canter, then leg yield to trot at the wall from one of your other videos. The one thing that has actually helped me the most, though, was keeping my hands closer together to control his shoulder. That one thing has helped me immensely in my "canter journey" with this new horse! My next question was also answered- how you know when the outside hind leg is on the ground. A question I've always wanted to ask but felt like I should already know that b/c I've been riding for so long. Now I know! Simplified explanation. You ladies and your team are the best! And Mowgs looks super handsome🎩 Thanks DMA for letting us chime in!

    This is awesome! I feel like I am way behind people as my Standardbred is just trotting. I get a canter sometimes when lunging, but I haven't asked under saddle. But this makes total sense to not even ask her until she is balanced at the trot. And the leaning in on the circle - makes so much sense that they have to be "upright" in order to get that back outside leg under them!

    Systematic approach. I hear that. Trusting the process and just taking the small wins. Also, the tip to not keep riding a canter circle is VERY helpful. My take away about that is working on transitions in the circle and then riding the long side to prevent the horse from going on the forehand.

I need some help with the walk to trot transition, for some reason I always seem to start off rising on the wrong diagonal then have to sit two to change.

    Hi Paula! We are just getting back to you on your question. When making your walk to trot transition, your aid is to use both of your legs at the same time to ask the horse to move forward into the trot and you immediately start rising to ask for the transition. And if you have your horse balanced on his 4 legs, the first step he should take of trot would actually be the moment you would go up in your rise because of the diagonal pair. And that would be if he first caught stride with his inside hind leg and his outside front leg. You would go immediately from the first step of trot up into the rising trot and be immediately on the correct diagonal. But that is assuming that the horse is balanced and makes the transition with leading first with his inside hind leg. So the biggest thing is that you'll find that there's one way that it's easier and generally that's in the direction that the horse is more balanced. So improve the horse's balance and your balance as a rider and you'll find that it's easier to ask the horse to start trotting by starting rising and you'll end up on the correct diagonal. I hope this helps! xx
