  • 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.

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

  • 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!

  • @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!

  • Thats hyperflexion...the horse feels really unhappy.

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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!!!

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

  • "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
