How to Ride Your Horse at a Walk : How to Halt a Walking Horse Using the Reins

[MissCountryChloe]

I'm not a very experienced rider, but I can find sooo many flaws in this. Especially how she sits.. it's not a lounge chair lady!

[annaunddaslicht]

Thats hyperflexion...the horse feels really unhappy.

And you want the people to learn by your videos???

[GhodiGirl]

When I learned how to ride we didn't pull on the reins at all. We used our thighs and seat to stop a horse.

[tannerluv2show]

this is what we call EXPERTvillage? seriously?

If he doesn't stop pull harder.... he has a shank bit on, you don't pull at all. You're already pulling on his face harder than you should be. You sure do have a saint of a horse if he hasn't bucked you off for ripping on his mouth. If he did, he's telling you where you need to start training him.... from the ground. Groundwork is vital.

if she leans back any farther she'll be able to look at the sky!!! SIT UP STRAIGHT YOU ARE THROWING THE HORSE OFF BALANCE!!!

[caligal2010]

@vulcannut99 EXACTLY. she's an idiot. did u see her tutorial on holding reins?? i was laughing so hard lol

[GhodiGirl]

this rider's position is hideous! She needs to be longed without reins to develop a better seat.

[LaRanaTJ]

"she listens pretty well" - and also has huge chunks of iron in her mouth with ridiculously long shanks. More dangerous half-cocked information from Expert Village and the inflatable rider. All her riding ´technique´ is hideous

[gabby987654321]

ok not every horse is the same !!>:( this vid sucks

[blsturman]

It appears that this is the first time she is on a horse from the way she holds the reins, sits the saddle, position of heelsfeet and the use of spurs on this horse.

[AshFlash22]

Shouldn't riding be comfortable for both you and the horse? Seriously, relax.

[Warp9Engage]

Did she actually say to pull harder for a horse that refuses to be as cooperative?! I'm no expert, but if your horse isn't stopping properly it's time for some more groundwork.

[lulu1657]

poor horse!!!!! your WAY to fat for him/her!!!!!!! fatty go lose some weight

[DidaSinclair]

ma chi è questa cicciona ?!?! ridicola!!!

[K9WolfDogReturns]

I hate expertvillage. Everything they do is complete bull shit.

[barrelracer787]

Toes up heels down: hold your reins down a little farther it looks like they are too long.

[horseyjill28]

no offense miss kelly but you need a few riding lessons yourself before you start teaching other people to ride. heels down, please, don't tap your horse with the spurs when you're trying to halt. your hands should be about a foot lower than you're holding them.

[babywolfgurl26]

@horseyjill28 I COMPLETELY AGREE! i was looking at her heels and she needs to learn how to put those down before she even thinks about teaching other people! That's really one of the first things anyone learns when riding any breed of horse!

[all4pharlap]

Why are her hands all the way near her chest?

[aspenhillranch]

wasnt impressed -

[foxtrot5761]

Horse is overbent

[sockses]

yeah, that's exactly how to stop your horse... pull on the reins and bump her in the sides with your spurs

[hayleyclarke]

wow, terrible....her hands are up by her chest..she pulls on the reins like a child. and she uses her spurs to much. Also she does not let her horse relax its head and neck, even when stopped..this poor creature must be terribly uncomfortable

[horsesrmyfriends]

EASY!

[Trailriderjude]

what about emergency stopping if that does not work..

[christianead]

very good!!
