I got on the lunge line & it truly transformed my balance. Pretty amazing

The last Section about using your lat instead of your bicep is absolute gold - no one EVER taught me to use these muscles to stop my horse. Thank you very much for this as well!

A wonderful rider and a martial artist!!! That is called unstoppable!!!! Video is awesome!! Thank you

Amazing,thank you so much

Hy Erica I'm Maria from Italy I start riding two years ago when I was 56 years old.I have kyphosis on my back, how to balance in trot and canter?

I'm getting back into the saddle after a 40 year hiatus. I wish I could have my first lessons with you to learn the proper seat this time!

Your a very good teacher

Neindorff was phenomenal!

Great and well explained, to the point. Nice work!

fully agree 완전 동감이에요. 승마라는 운동의 가장 매력적인 요소라고 생각합니다. 영상들 모두가 실질적인 도움이 됩니다. 감사합니다~~ from korea

Nit picky quibble, ships do turn by “pushing their bum out.” Rudder pusher rear end of ship toward outside of the turn causing keel to point toward inside. So maybe not best example 😂😂

Brilliant ❤

Absolutely

Why her feet so far back?

Awesome! Thank you!

I am so excited to take my first Erica Poseley clinic this weekend. Its about time I learned how to ride better. Thanks and I am so ready for this!

Thank you for doing this video. I ride western “ Reining in particular” but I will put this to use immediately.

This is exactly how I start my young students and any adults who are willing to let me put them on the line and work on actually riding the horse not the saddle.

What are you doing with your seat to give the stop signal? It is very subtle and had to appreciate and replicate

G'day Erica i've just discovered yr channel i'm an Equitopia devotee,Parelli,Warrick.Schiller and Godolphin makes 4.i've been revering @ riding horses,our sacred.fellow creatures, since birth. At 61 my love of horses and learning has not waned, far from it. I have 2 thoroughbreds and still ride track. I am abundantly blessed. Good horsemen @ women like yrself,quietly inspire as you demonstrate, @ impart yr expertize with humanity and principle. Many thanks for yr example. ❤🐎🐎🐎🐎🇭🇲🇭🇲🇺🇸🇺🇸

Exellent coach🏇🎖👍👏💐

Thank you, this is exactly what I needed. I've been training both martial arts and riding, but for some reason they haven't clicked together in my brain before. I've felt more comfortable with a long stirrup, but now I can see why that's not good.

Wouldn’t want to mess with this lady

Thank you for making these videos. Can you please elaborate on how to understand + identify a “basic attempt”. I think I’m sometimes unclear in my communication because I do not reinforce at the moment of basic attempt and find myself instead looking for a perfect attempt. I’d also love to hear more about how to choose the placement of pressure. I would’ve thought that you’d apply pressure in the same place that the pressure would be if you were under saddle (so for shoulder displacement I personally might’ve placed pressure where my leg would be applying pressure)

loved watching all your videos as I'm currently doing my quine studies (: thank you

My last lessons 2 years ago included frustrated words about how I wasn't holding onto the reins and don't blame it on the horse that the reins were coming out of my hands. What was shown here would have been a more helpful approach. I was holding as hard as I could to keep the reins. I wonder if that was part of the problem and they didn't notice. I can only speculate. I was too busy being verbally chewed up for not following directions to figure out how to rephrase my comment about the reins being pulled out of my hands into something that was a specific request for help and not something that sounded like I'm not willing to take responsibility for controlling my body. I swear my fingers were not passively lose letting gravity take them.

I need hours and hours on the longe to get fixed, with a good ground person who can keep our circle round. The only lesson I really learned at the last place was how mangled my position is. I don't even know what I was doing right, or just ok. Toes cocked out, pinching knee, stiff ankles, get weight even across the stirrups, arched back tips seat bones back, tend to weight one side of my body too much which has a cascade effect on other body parts, carry elbows too open, fingers don't stay closed, one hand has a mind of it's own, and I need to learn to use my core. I also get anxious when the slightest thing happens, so I get a slight fetal curl that happens. All of this needs work before I can make progress off my plateau. But I haven't had riding time in at least 2 years. Now with corona virus all the barns offering lessons aren't accepting new students.

I have watched all your videos. You are an excellent trainer, teacher, and horsewoman. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and love for horses with all of us watching!

So great love this video very helpful

Very nice video 😍

This is such a clear and helpful video for a beginner like me! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you so so much!!!!! I discovered such an important information among all the video!! This is so magic for me!! I am mainly talking about the last part of the video! Discovering this muscle which will allow me to use it with out pulling into my horse mouse! I really do not know how to THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Such a huge and precious information!! I am trying it now and it is unbelievable how it works! Tomorrow I shall try it with my beloved four legs friend! Thank you!!!!!!

omg i love her

Really nicely produced. Thanks :)

This is a great, simple explanation of creating functional stability and lightness.

Looks good Erica! You are a good teacher.

Perfect !... My horse hates to walk...i am going to do this with him....huge help thank you !.. Georgous horse !

Erica do you ever come to Western Canada and do clinics?

Hi, Madam ,thank you very much . Your video is awesome .

Ms. Poseley, can you give advice on the rider's breathing technique whilst riding; avoiding holding one's breath in the chest, breathing to quick and/or not breathing at all in combination with underlying tension in the riders buttocks in the knees in the arms ect. Many thanks for your time AND thankyou for the new video's. Cheers.

I have moderate scoliosis; I can't have good posture no matter what I do and my core strength is very poor. It makes me wonder if I'll ever be able to be a good rider.

Thank you for another great video with very clear explanations. I love how in the end the horse is too sleepy to take the treat! :)

I love your videos, Erica! You're a very inspirational horse woman. Greetings from Germany

New video from EricaPoseley ?? I watch immediately. I waited a long time ! Great story. You seem to be a really great caring horse person Erica. I wish I had a chnce to have lessons with you. Like, a month, to help me get rid of some bad habits. My riding dys are over now. Wish you to spread your love and respect to horses as wide as possible. Greetings from Poland.

Great video!! Very clear explanation. Thank you so much!

This has nothing to do with dressage which is a specialty. This is basic equitation. And neither the rider nor the teacher should be wearing spurs. The rider because she's unstable in the saddle and the teacher because wearing spurs while doing work on the ground risks a tangle with the longe line and a fall. Also, the teacher should be standing still so that the horse remains on a circle and is not changing the radius all the time which changes what the rider must do. Do the basics right. All things effective in riding -- dressage, jumping, work in the open -- come from there.

Thank you so much. Xxx

Why can't EVERY horse person be this attuned to the HORSES NEEDS? They work hard for us without complaint, the least WE can do is try to make that work as pleasant as possible for them... It can only be more pleasant for us in the long run, and without that symbiotic connection no real progress can be made... Love her! I need to watch more!

Ah ha! Precisely what I was looking for. I have made a transition from teaching saddle seat on high headed horses to teaching beginner hunter seat. There are major differences in biomechanics but I couldn't quite figure out how to translate. This will help all my beginners a lot!

I love Erica. I would love to spend time with her. Her compassion for the horse and rider are heartfelt through a video. Can you imagine being with her in person. Well done, Erica. You are blessed and thank you for blessing us! LP
