To clear up the canter confusion, in this week’s video I am here with Wendy Murdoch and Elmer the skeleton, to explain what our body needs to do at canter, how we can easily go with the horse’s movement, and why some things riders do makes them unstable and could even hurt the horse.
p.s. If you want to learn more from Wendy, click here to check out her Effortless Rider Course, just reopened! www.horseclass...
p.s.s. Want to ride the springy horse shown in this video?! Come to Honey Brook Stables for our Private Intensives for two days of learning on Joker the Spring Horse and our real school masters too! www.horseclass...

For the longest time, I underestimated the importance of an instant transition from a trot to a canter, or a walk to a canter if your horse is trained for that. If you're having to kiss and squeeze and have your horse go into a faster trot before you canter, not only can the motion mess you up as a rider, but a frenzied trot leads to a frenzied canter. Essentially, having a nice trot and an instant transition when you ask makes finding and maintaining the right position a million times easier.

I think this was my problem. I was taught to get into this frenzied trot and then ask for a canter in the corners, but I always felt so nervous about the jumpy transition and my horse was never ready and I’d get so flustered

In today's lesson I was asked to go over a pole on the ground and I forgot to stride properly. The horse overjumped so it literally launched my butt forward and my head almost landed in the horse's neck if I didn't stop myself in time. Then found this video and it clicked why it happened. BECAUSE I ALWAYS SAT THE CANTER, LEANING FORWARD.

This demonstration was eye opening! I always strive to ride in a way that allows my horse to best utilize his own body, carrying myself as much as possible while in the saddle, but to see how much of an impact just a little "misplacement" of a limb/seatbone or the shoulders has was impressive! This image will definitely be in my mind the next time I ride the canter! Thank you for sharing this with the world!

The demonstration of how difficult it is for the horse to move when i lean forward is very informative. My instructor always tells me to sit back and squeeze with my legs so the horse starts to canter but i'm still struggling with the sitting trot so i find it difficult to sit the trot and then squeeze. What happens is that i try to keep myself in the saddle by squeezing and this automatically makes me lean forward big time and then the horse would start to canter. Many times i feel he canters because the instructor shouts canter not because i gave a right cue. After the transition, i sit back and i move with the saddle but when i see a video of me riding, i still find that i come out of the saddle somehow. I'm not fully "in" the seat. And the thing is.. i dont feel myself bouncing!

@@jackievargasphotography I know it's a pain to wait. I'm a dressage rider and was not allowed canter until I perfected post trot and sitting trot. Spent a few yrs doing that ! And a canter is a completely different motion then trot. My balance is so much better taking the time to perfect the "boring stuff " . When my pony spooks it doesn't throw me off balance anymore.

@Kelly_Ben 3 жыл бұрын
I don't agree. The movements are completely different, and the sitting trot is far bouncier, in some horses even more than others. I started riding dressage 30 years ago, have since ridden western and hunter jumper, and I'm STILL not perfect at the sitting trot. While it's good to work on the sitting trot, people can ride happily and safely for years without it being perfect. Would their riding be improved with working on it? Of course, but limiting your progress to the weakest link isn't a method I would advise.

I thought that was a really great job at explaining the form with connection to your seat and the horse's body motion during a Canter and the affects it has when done the wrong way versus correct way - Love it and want to see how I would do at this again as with all forms of riding. The very first time I cantered was when I was 16 years old with a girlfriend who took me out to an open field with her horse. When I got on that horse and got to that momentum where is just felt fluid, it was the greatest feeling in the world! I had never felt so free and connected with a horse. I believe I went into a gallop too. I love horses and visualize what my interactions would be with them daily even though I don't have any of my own. Probably sounds silly, but I have watched many horse and ranch type movies. I have watched "Heartland" for its 15th season always paying close attention to how Amy trains and gentles the horses and really focus all my attention to. It's something I've always been passionate about since I was a young girl and I just need to make this happen- I would like to find a friendly down-to-earth family type farm/ranch where I can begin lessons again and see what might come about. Thanks for sharing

For anyone struggling I was focusing on one thing too much and that was to make the circle movements but I kept bouncing so I couldn’t do that. And when I just started riding my instructor would tell me to relax and I completely forgot about that. All you got to do is relax and lean a bit back not too much and when you are not bouncing you will feel that your following the horses movement without you actually making yourself follow it it just happens.

I have been riding for a while now but I just always had trouble really sitting deepn in the canter. I would always see others cantering and they would be sitting it really well on bot bouncing at all and i noticed that they would almost move their upper body back and forth with the canter. I tried that and it helped a little but it still felt really uncomfortable and un natural. I eventually realized that the only reason their upper body was moving a bit was because they were actually moving their hips with the saddle. So guys while leaning back and relaxing in the canter is helpful you should purposely move your hips with the saddle and think about you butt being glued to the saddle and not allowed to come out. Good luck hope this helps 😁

hum...as a western ridder I was taught to drive forward with my pelvis as my feet come in and push for the canter(it slightly leans you back to free the shoulder to come up) but I didn't have professional teaching just cowboys I rode with. After I had my son I found it was painful to drive with my pelvis so I end up bracing my legs to "hover" into the transition, which also is painful due to knee and ankle injury in my right leg so I naturally lean forward once the shoulder comes up to relive that pain. (think a circle from hind to front going forward to get started with a big shoulder movement that's natural for my horse*he throws his shoulders up and forward having no professional training in gates*and that forces me to round my back to stay balanced without leg bracing or really leaning forward....and it's not painful to me and a "natural" movement for him....while I know we are far show material does that possible balance us out so we LOOK like we know what we are doing🤔🤔most tell me we look really good in our transitions but again it's nothing like a dressage show!😄

It might not be as fancy as dressage, but from the sounds of it, you're doing pretty good job at riding. I used to study horses, horse behavior, horse breeds, all that jaz, but I stopped after five or something years. And that's because my grandmother told me that horses are smelly and why would I want a smelly animal to be my favorite animal. I took it to heart and changed my favorite animal to cats, and to this day, they are my favorite animal. However, my love for horses still remains. And for a bonus, snakes are tied with cats, when it comes to my favorite animals.

Thanks ever so much for this really interesting video. This skeleton can explain things really logically. And it shows very clearly, what leaning forward and bracing can do to the poor horse. I would love to learn, too, how your boney rider manages the ups and downs of the canter, opening and closing his hips. I guess, the secret is to let the movement flow through your hips, widening and narrowing the angle between your upper legs and your body. This would make your body always stay upright, seemingly unmovable. Am I right?

Thanks Callie for all your videos with your love and passion ! My question : the circular movement Wendy is demonstrating with the sattle is a backwards oriented circle. If I am not wrong in one of your videos you suggest the first move is down (meaning the back of the horse is up, what seems to me more a forward oriented circle closing the hip joint of the rider when the back of the horse is up ). Your thoughts ?Hope I could explain clearly. thanks for considering. Helmuth

For your legs in the canter, do you keep any leg on (like a light hug) or do you let them hang loosely? For me this is the trickiest part. Especially when riding school horses that require a little more leg. I'm trying to relax and kick at the same time.

I’m hoping that some point I’ll find the sweet spot, because I’ve tried relaxing leaning back, forward, changing my stirrups, finding a rhythm, but there just seems to be no getting past an up and down motion that seems like around a foot of movement up and down. It just seems no matter how relaxed or wherever my bottom is placed in that saddle, there is no maintaining a center of gravity within it. Heck with that kind of up and down movement you could catapult a lump of lard into the next county. So there must be something else m missing. I’ve been attempting this for months now on Doogan, he’s a 16 hand quarter horse, and my last attempt left me with a scabbed behind after a 100 yards of experimenting with various positions.

I REALLY want to take lessons but I have my spine fused from T4-L1. I don’t have A LOT of flexibility in my lower spine but I can do it for short periods for sure. Will only having 4 vertebrae not fused in my lumbar spine inhibit my motion? My hips can tuck under me and can rotate my hips fairly well, I just can’t puff my chest out like a rooster- I see some riders doing a motion where its really fluid in the spine. I can put my hands on the floor so Leaning forward is easier than leaning back for me. Leaning back and I can only maybe go 5-10 degrees before I can’t look back anymore. Id love to do dressage. Would be the easiest on my spine I think

You can't sit straight in the canter as the movement brings the riders inside hip forward. Aid the horse by putting the inside leg forward (so right leg for right lead canter and visa versa) and slightly lifting the inside rein. This puts the riders inside hip forward. It's a very clear aid as it only means one thing, canter, on right or leg leg. You don't twist the body to do this it's very slight and you keep your shoulders above the hips (inside hip slightly advanced). The inside leg can go back to neutral when canter has been achieved). Putting the outside leg back kinda does this but not as effectively. The movent is up, back, down (just like if you canter on your own feet). Downward transition, straighten the pelvis and squeeze your bum.
