jesus that trainer sucks .. shes moving her botton half legs ... keep them still behing u and keep ur heels down :/ .. for all begginers out their , THIS IS NOT A GOOD VIDEO ... they will teach you to do it not wrong but sloppy .....
it breaks my heart to see people use spurs.. you say that you would never harm a horse, but yet you're stabbing him in the side with every step he takes! that's why i never EVER use spurs. theyre just cruel.
I started out riding Western, and I feel like that really helped me to be able to have a strong sitting trot. You really have to have a nice rhythm and position to get a slow jog out of a Western horse, and I found it easy to transition to the faster trot on my hunters because I had already built up the muscles I needed.
I grew up teaching myself to ride and had taught myself to cling in a way that others would find ugly lol. I have to say that when I started learning to sit the trot, when my boss told me I was getting the hang of it I actually felt like I was moving around more and my whole body was more bouncy than how I normally rode. I had to build different muscles and have a much better trot posture now.. Anyway, I think the lady demonstrating is trying to exaggeratedly show how your muscles should move.
the trainer on the ground is great! However the rider needs to get her dang heels out of the horse!! and shes a little too floppy... your not suppose to go limp when u sit!! lol
I've been riding for weeks and I only learned how to walk and sit trot by now a rider with a good instructer would all ready be posting and cantering good thing I'm moving stables
@Ilovemodelhorses that is not true to canter you need your walk and trot mastered i have been riding for over 6 years and i only started cantering 2 years ago if you start to soon you will hurt your self and lose confadece. so take your time you will get there
@Ilovemodelhorses Not really.... Posting and cantering takes time. You need to know the basics like the back of your hand before advancing. I understand how you want to trot and canter asap, but for the long run it will help you. dont rush it. Good luck:)
Is it just me or are her stirrups too long? Sitting trot is all about being still in the saddle yes? And shes yanking the horses mouth, kicking every second and bouncing about like there's no tomorrow xD
I'm not trying to brag or anything, but it definitely does not take 6 months to learn to sit the trot because I learned how to do it in one day on a trail ride :\
If you watch her heel while she's posting you can see that when she sits, her heels come up, and when she rises her heels go down and her leg swings forward. I think this rider she do some leg stabilizing exercises before she even attempts a sitting trot.
Is it just me, or does the rider on the white horse look really floppy through her seat and legs? I get that your leg and seat shouldn't be immobile, but she looks like she has too much "flopping" through her leg and seat.
@friesianlover203 Exactly! My instructor would never let me ride like that and tell me that I was doing well! Her posting is pretty bad too, and she's balancing completely off her toes, instead of through her heels. :S
first of all, im a beginner horseback ridr and even i notice her heel's aren't down and her legs are moving rapidly! i know your legs have to move, but not that much! :O plus her postion is really akward...
nice vid, i just have a piece of advice, you might want to tighten your calf muscles so that they are not flying back and forth on the horse's side, great vid though =)
Just sit on the horse and make it trot, that should do it. When I started trotting, I learnt to sit the trot, I didnt even post until a month later. Plus, it was in a WESTERN saddle.
Ok, well when you're posting, your heels are supposed to be down, and your legs should be almost still. When your sitting the trot your legs are moving all over the place, and you're using your spurs too much. Just some things you should probably work on.. But other then that I think it's ok. :)
I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and say the horse's trot must be super uncomfortable....But God that looks bad, she's flopping all over the place.
I wasn't going to say anything...but wow. What the trainer is saying is true, except for the 6 months part. It's pretty easy to learn to sit the trot, but maybe that's just me. But they should have used a different rider to demonstrate this, cuz that girl looks horrible. Sitting trot does not mean you just let your body all loose and move all over the saddle. Wow...
she looks sloppy, her hips and legs shouldnt move so much and her horse is going to stop responding to the spur if she uses them so often, leg first then spurs if needed its nicer on the horse
guys im not saying that she's amazing but i bet a lot of you are just jealous of her because you cant even ride that well....if she's soo bad why did you even watch this video??.....i bet most of you cant even walk properly on a horse
@happyhorse362 i think what's upseting ppl so much is how much her lower legs move and how often the spurs are used. People watching this video probably all seek the same: learn how to sit the trot, and when we look for advise we generaly seek from someone we can look up to, wich is kindda hard to do when seeing legs like that. Just my opinion anyway, I ride like crap, but I find it more important to keep the horse super leg sensitive than having a good posture cos I'm just a happy hacker.
@DJBelbe yeah i agree i just dont like how she spurs the horse and kicks it and then pulls it's head and the horse might think it's doing something wrong...i just dnt think she should move her lower leg at all
@happyhorse362 yeah, that's wa I was trying to say too. I usually worry more about keeping my lower legs still than anything else. Got that habbit from riding a mare who'll bolt or jump sideways at the slightest leg pressure! LOL.
@DJBelbe lol...the horse that i lease is still young and not finshed with training so it's really fun to ride because she has a lot of energy but when she gets spooked or something lets just say it's not fun lol
@happyhorse362 it's not the young factor, my mare is 10 years old! i think it's both genes and some training. My colt is full of energy, super sensitive yet never spooks! I started hacking out on traffic with him on his 3rd time under saddle! bless that little stallion to bits! my mare is a nightmare on the road...
I've been riding since my last summer holidays, im now in october (i live in england) and im already rising trot off a lead. it's not that hard tbh... (not trying to gloat)
I have only been going horse riding like a month and only learnt to do the up trot but my instuctor said i had a beautiful sitting trot and i didn't even know i was doing it :L
If you have strength in your abdomen, the sitting trot isn't a herculean task. This rider needs to quiet her legs and stop exaggerating the movement quite so much, she looks like she's in a bestiality porn.

I'm sorry I can't ignore her legs it was bothering me not to b mean but she shud keep her feet still at all times and that wasn't happening srry if I sound mean I'm not trying to
If speaking seriously - this is not bad example of a nice sitting trot, perhaps excluding the loose legs. The rider is nicely following the movement of the horse (which appears to be quite "jumpy"). I bet 90% of the commentators who criticized the rider would sit stiff restricting movements of the horse terribly.
6 months?! Yeah right!!! I have a difficult horse to sit and I taught myself within 5 min.!!!!! That's also one of the worst sitting trots I've ever seen!!! She's also KICKING that poor mare in the sides!!
that horse is a SAINT for taking that much spur and not bucking her off and trampling her to death. (i ride a super green horse so i have to think about that stuff :P haa)
..I always get really nice marks(8's and 9's) on my tests for my position and in my sitting trots, and I certainly look nothing like this.. o.O She looks like she's humping the horse, not moving with him. And all she's doing is using her spurs to make the horse go. Plus, wtf is up to her leg and heel when she's sitting? o.O
This is NOT how to sit to the trot! She is 'driving with the seat, so both seatbones are shovelling back and forth together. The horses back moves in two halves, not one piece, and thankfully the Good Lord made the human rear end in two halves too. Put two and two together, in sync and you make one. Put two and two together out of sync, and you get this. The rider is too upright in rising trot, and is then having to pump her pelvis to catch up with the movement.

No offence but it's easier to learn by riding without stirrups. Something my instructor loves, we spend about twenty minutes on it every lesson. But then again what do I know...?
@dluvpups2010 most of the time it depends on the horse coz my horse is realy realy bouncy makes it very difficult to do sitting trot were as my mums horse hes nice and smooth which makes it quite easy
and by the way this isnt the way ive been taught its better to practice first with no stirrups because you legs are nice and long and not quite shure what the woman on the horse is doing with her lower leg but it made me lol
@dluvpups2010 It's easy for me to sit the trot to, but I don't do it correctly. My upper body has way to much movement and I can't keep my hands still. Just because it's easy, doesn't mean you're doing it right. i bet you if you uploaded a video of you sitting the trot, it would be totally off.
Now back to this rider. What is she doing with her leg at the posting and sitting trot? XD
I don't know how to sit the trot. I bounce alot and my trainer told me I have to learn to be relaxed in the saddle, or something like that. Will I ever learn how to sit the trot? How long it takes to learn how to sit the trot? I really need 6 months to learn that? :O
she is a very busy rider she does not look smooth at all. She looks like she is trying way to hard, she is not relaxed....her lower leg is also so busy. Sorry but this really is not a good sitting trot.
No disrespect to the rider, but that is not a good demonstration of correct sitting trot position. The rider is in a 'chair' seat, and not stable in the upper body or lower leg. The inside hip should also be forward and the upper body open to the inside of the circle, with stable outside aids.
i dont really want to look like im humping my horse my dad walked in and asked what the hell am i watching i said how to do sitting trot he said that isnt sitting trot is humping .
In defense of the rider, this is obviously a well trained dressage horse who is actually swinging through his back. That is a much 'bigger' trot to sit than say, a QH. I would say that yes, the legs are a bit too loose but she is doing an excellent job of following the horse's movement and NOT restricting him...a lot of riders can't do the same. And her hands are soft and following. Notice how he is never pulled backwards or loses the rhythm.
@HoldYourHorses26 Nothing disrespectful to those in the video BUT, that is what it looks like--like she's attempting to achieve an orgasm on horseback. Jusy sayin'!
@HoldYourHorses26 Firstly your comment was hilarious, and secondly I see two problems as to why she appears to be grinding around on her horse. Her leg is not engaged at all, its dangling around like a hook on a fishing lure. If she sat up properly and put some energy into her leg, pressing down through her hip to the ball of her foot then her pelvis which is bouncing away would be a lot quieter and she would be able to grip with her whole leg and hot just her quad as she is doing here.
@PonyLoveForLifee She doesn't have spurs, but she's still horrible. Her legs move WAY too much, her heels aren't down, and her hands are too far apart. Ugh. The teacher is fine, but the rider...
WTF You SUCK! When you ride you keep you heels DOWN and your legs STILL! You look like your humping the saddle! STUPID!!! If she is an instructor then I would hate to see the students learning the trot!
@herewefly I agree with you 100%, but that's the way dressage riders ride, they don't put their heels down becasue they think that it "locks their leg", and I think her seat looks like it is moving a lot because the horse has a trot that moves a lot, so her seat is compensating for that. My friend rides dressage, so she always tells me that when I say ur supposed to put ur heels down. Once again, I agree with you about putting your heels down, haha.
Wtf. sitting the trot is easy for me!

..I always get really nice marks(8's and 9's) on my tests for my position and in my sitting trots, and I certainly look nothing like this.. o.O She looks like she's humping the horse, not moving with him. And all she's doing is using her spurs to make the horse go. Plus, wtf is up to her leg and heel when she's sitting? o.O

This is NOT how to sit to the trot! She is 'driving with the seat, so both seatbones are shovelling back and forth together. The horses back moves in two halves, not one piece, and thankfully the Good Lord made the human rear end in two halves too. Put two and two together, in sync and you make one. Put two and two together out of sync, and you get this. The rider is too upright in rising trot, and is then having to pump her pelvis to catch up with the movement.

No offence but it's easier to learn by riding without stirrups. Something my instructor loves, we spend about twenty minutes on it every lesson. But then again what do I know...?

I rode my first horse yesterday and I SAT the trot it was really easy I don't know what this persons saying..
dluvpups2010 8 months ago
@dluvpups2010 most of the time it depends on the horse coz my horse is realy realy bouncy makes it very difficult to do sitting trot were as my mums horse hes nice and smooth which makes it quite easy
and by the way this isnt the way ive been taught its better to practice first with no stirrups because you legs are nice and long and not quite shure what the woman on the horse is doing with her lower leg but it made me lol
mehavebesthorse 8 months ago
@dluvpups2010 It's easy for me to sit the trot to, but I don't do it correctly. My upper body has way to much movement and I can't keep my hands still. Just because it's easy, doesn't mean you're doing it right. i bet you if you uploaded a video of you sitting the trot, it would be totally off.
Now back to this rider. What is she doing with her leg at the posting and sitting trot? XD

I don't know how to sit the trot. I bounce alot and my trainer told me I have to learn to be relaxed in the saddle, or something like that. Will I ever learn how to sit the trot? How long it takes to learn how to sit the trot? I really need 6 months to learn that? :O
MonikaCobain97 9 months ago
she is a very busy rider she does not look smooth at all. She looks like she is trying way to hard, she is not relaxed....her lower leg is also so busy. Sorry but this really is not a good sitting trot.
englishridinggirl 9 months ago
No disrespect to the rider, but that is not a good demonstration of correct sitting trot position. The rider is in a 'chair' seat, and not stable in the upper body or lower leg. The inside hip should also be forward and the upper body open to the inside of the circle, with stable outside aids.

i dont really want to look like im humping my horse my dad walked in and asked what the hell am i watching i said how to do sitting trot he said that isnt sitting trot is humping .
ajbabie1997 10 months ago
In defense of the rider, this is obviously a well trained dressage horse who is actually swinging through his back. That is a much 'bigger' trot to sit than say, a QH. I would say that yes, the legs are a bit too loose but she is doing an excellent job of following the horse's movement and NOT restricting him...a lot of riders can't do the same. And her hands are soft and following. Notice how he is never pulled backwards or loses the rhythm.

@HoldYourHorses26 Many women DO find sexual relief from sitting the trot, often in a deep, close-contact saddle, so they have told me.
sharx35 9 months ago
@HoldYourHorses26 Nothing disrespectful to those in the video BUT, that is what it looks like--like she's attempting to achieve an orgasm on horseback. Jusy sayin'!
sharx35 9 months ago
@HoldYourHorses26 Firstly your comment was hilarious, and secondly I see two problems as to why she appears to be grinding around on her horse. Her leg is not engaged at all, its dangling around like a hook on a fishing lure. If she sat up properly and put some energy into her leg, pressing down through her hip to the ball of her foot then her pelvis which is bouncing away would be a lot quieter and she would be able to grip with her whole leg and hot just her quad as she is doing here.

@PonyLoveForLifee She doesn't have spurs, but she's still horrible. Her legs move WAY too much, her heels aren't down, and her hands are too far apart. Ugh. The teacher is fine, but the rider...

savannah4069 1 year ago
WTF You SUCK! When you ride you keep you heels DOWN and your legs STILL! You look like your humping the saddle! STUPID!!! If she is an instructor then I would hate to see the students learning the trot!
OiiOiiLOL 1 year ago
Horrable riding! Use your leg muscles, not the stirrup to post. My trainer would have made me post with no stirrups (which sucked but worked haha).
herewefly 1 year ago
@herewefly I agree with you 100%, but that's the way dressage riders ride, they don't put their heels down becasue they think that it "locks their leg", and I think her seat looks like it is moving a lot because the horse has a trot that moves a lot, so her seat is compensating for that. My friend rides dressage, so she always tells me that when I say ur supposed to put ur heels down. Once again, I agree with you about putting your heels down, haha.

Different people learn to post trot and sit trot differently, according to saddles and style. This isnt my prefered style but it could work.
