    This horse has the stiffest back I think I’ve ever seen…he could probably do with some therapy for that…

  8. PrincessFamous says:

    yeah the horse is totally stiff and uncomfortable…

  9. StayintheSaddle says:

    But I’m not really hearing about “balanced” riding. Its a lot of riding jargon without real instruction. Anyone else get that?

  15. oliveisgreen says:

    What is horse camp?

  16. xdisneyfreakx says:

    its where you go to camp with horses… er thats not helpful
    you go to a stable with your horse or a horse from the stables and ride and groom and go on trips and stuff with your horse! you usually sleep on straw and stuff its great! I got back about a month ago lol

  17. WeeGal159 says:

    yeah i dont get why you dont rise and fall in western its much more comfy for the horse and you

  18. Chloe5558 says:

    she needs to put her hands closer together there way to far apart

  19. IsBreaLiomCapall says:

    its more comfy sitting trot when you know the horse really well

  20. hihihippo320 says:

    I reallly want to know how to grip your knees when your ridding (english) becasue my teacher alway says your griping wrong in your legs ? Whats that spose to meen ?

  21. 8JustinMorgan8 says:

    Mabey she mans that your knees aren’t against the saddle (you shouldn’t see any light) but some places ride differently…. Ask your teacher.

  22. ockstaar says:

    she bores me..

  23. CanteringLeap says:

    @hihihippo320 From my experience you are suppose to relax your knees, and pretend someone has cross an anchor under your horses stomach attacked yo both your heels, you should be molding from your knees down around the horse.

    Everyone learns different, but thats how I’ve been taught. Hope it helps.

  24. horselover123x says:

    @hihihippo320 ur no t ment to grip

  25. Yzzyc says:

    @hihihippo320 It means that your thighs/calves are too tense so that you’re holding on to the horse by physically gripping with your knees to hold on. This is a mistake because it means your weight is neither in your stirrups or your seat – it prevents you from going with the horse’s movement and giving your aids supply and properly. It also often causes you to subconsciously lift your feet, thus frequently losing your stirrups.
    I had this problem too. I found that riding without stirrups helped
