[@jonedelpangan8654]

Most helpful I’ve watched so far…thank you!

[@daphne1478]

I've been struggling with my rising trot which has gone terribly bad. Your video was so beneficial! Thank you&Sunny for an amazing video!

This is the best video I have seen to help with the rising trot. Thank you.

This makes a lot more sense than ‘up and down’. I’ve been trotting for weeks but I can’t for the life of me keep my legs back. When instructors tell me to push through my legs and go up, that’s kinda what I do. I almost push into my stirrups and try to stand up. But then I end up standing too high, bouncing down, and my legs are all over the place. I will try this more relaxed ‘forwards and backwards’ method next time to see if it works!

[@rehanachoudhury2800]

This is exactly what I do. Will defo try this forward and backward approach with the hips.

[@chelseasmith2346]

My trainer told me the exact same.. to basically stand up in the saddle... why do trainers tell us to do this when every single video shows us not to do that at all... I'm so confused.. Will defo give the hip thing a try on my next lesson..

[@KayaRammstein]

@@chelseasmith2346 i had the same thing happened to me on my very first class- i believe the reason we are all taught to stand is because we are new to riding,first time on a horse, we do not have strength in our legs to just sit on our thighs, so it helps to stand on stirrups until we get stronger and our legs understand what they have to do...

This video is so helpful! I feel empowered going into my riding lesson this afternoon!

[@user-ii9et1ck9z]

OMG this makes so much sense! I will try forward back on my next lesson!

[@jaynehughes9444]

again great video hope we are going to see a lot more from you. I find watching you on the horse just as good as listening to your explanations. Thank you

[@ZaraMuradDressage]

So glad your enjoying them and for your kind comments ❤️ Yes will me much more coming out xx

[@PADHAYAR]

Hey all.... This is Hassan from pakistan....... started to learn trot ...... video is great help thanks and keep up the good work

[@sladehelicoptersgaming3148]

Very helpful thank you ! And a stunning horse 👍

[@chelseasmith2346]

OK... I've literally had my first riding lesson today, and they made me do the rising trot (yes on my very first lesson)... The trainer kept telling me to stand up in the saddle.... to go up and down... using the stirrups to stand up and sit back down.. she never explained about following the leg or anything like that.... or about moving forward using my thighs instead of my lower legs.. I was bouncing.. and i felt so bad! I did eventually get the trot but clearly not correctly at all.. although she said I did really good... basically the trainer got me to trot the way that every single advice video i've watched, has said not to do! So why is my trainer telling me to do that? How can I approach her on this? As I don't want to seem like I know what I'm doing when i've only just started, to a trainer who has worked in that field for years 🙃

[@KayaRammstein]

holy shit ,ive had the same but SAME experience as you did, litteraly i was watching youtube b4 every class just to be a head of her... Sadly to say there is no recovering from this, i tried talking to my trainer about a year or 2 later into my riding but some things She hears but pretends she knows best,you know- shes right you're wrong... You can try being honest and try and ask politely as you can or .. end up like me-someone who learned everything in a couple of classes like a crash course and have problems later on in your riding , i go to a different trainer now where she explains everything super great but yeah im a buthole and i do visit my old trainer cus she now pretty laid back and is like Here's a horse go and ride... but yeah best to get the basics in the beginning....

[@Shumi321]

Finally! a video which made it clear :'))) thnx uuu

[@joanne0862]

I see alot of riders lean foward slightly when rising trot but ive always been taught to keep the postion when riding walk and trot

[@daniellacain3444]

This is so helpful. Thank you 😊

[@lisaclancy3372]

Loved your video-I had a light bulb moment with the hips going forward instead of up and down. Microphone was a little in and out though.

[@ZaraMuradDressage]

Glad you enjoyed the video . Yes the microphone was having an off day that day :( need to buy a new one but with no lessons on in lockdown I can’t afford it 😂😬

[@itz_not_me3997]

I also had a light bulb moment, I suspected I was doing it wrong and I just couldn’t figure what it was exactly but now knowing it’s forwards and backwards it makes a lot more sense 👍

[@youareamazingyesyou5880]

great video! i cant get my body to rise at the correct angle with pelvic tilting forward and back again. i feel lkie im rising up and down in a straight line and coming out of the saddle too high

[@rabiakhatun255]

Can I ask....so when you get up or go forward, do you then put some of that weight on your stirrups to help you balance? Only when you're up?

[@lushh.5963]

please can we have a sitting trot tutorial!! i really struggle with this:)

[@ZaraMuradDressage]

Already one out on my channel if you go through the videos 😁

[@Miren_333]

Thanks now I understand my coach tells me to go up and down. and it's a disaster

[@ingridlanghoff9417]

Is there the meaning that the horse is trotting with the head in between the legs ????

[@getrohanlobo]

Zara - very nice video.. would it be possible to show us how you collect the horse so well.. it seems to come naturally to you

[@ZaraMuradDressage]

Yes I’m filming next week so will do this :)

[@bipindhakal4999]

Hi there. Is it okay if I create little bit of hollow angle while rising and straight spine when I come to sit? It is very hard for me to rise with straight soine. My instructor told me you should only move your core and your spine should be in straight line whether you are rising or sitting. But, I can see even you are making bit hollow arc while you are rising.I m so confused😢. Can you please help me out. Cheers

[@gerardogodinez4425]

You make it look easy and is not....😢
