    As a young western rider, I was always taught not to use the reins to balance, which is true, but I was also taught that legs and reins were for direction and speed control. I was always coached to use the reins more than the legs. I was in my thirties before I was told to use my legs more, but I was still told that reins were for direction and speed control. Now I see that the most important cues come from the legs, not the reins. I love how you explain things in a way I can understand. Thank you for this video. :)

    This video really hit home with me as I am trying to break myself of using the reins so much and use my legs more. It is not easy!! Great job, Emily!

    Thank you, Emily! I loved seeing this video because Emily struggled to put what Ryan said into action, and it took several tries to get it. That is exactly what happens sometimes when my teacher teacher gives instructions andi have trouble putting what she says into action. It's frustrating to hear the same thing again and again and not know how to make it happen. Emily persisted. Apache responded, and they got it! Good example for me.

      Kris, i completely understand what you are saying about feeling frustrated because the trainer keeps repeating herself to me and im not getting it. You know what though? When show day came and things like in this lesson suddenly work and im doing it right, and then im in the running for a blue ribbon. Right?

    I LOVED this video! It is something that I need to practice religiously as I am an (older) rider who learned to ride using reins only and not my body. It’s a VERY hard habit to break.
    Ryan, you’re such a good teacher you even had me doing the moves in my chair while I was watching! I love your videos!!! Thanks :-)

    @christinemoore517 3 года назад +3

    Such an important lesson! So easy to screw up! This has been my best and worst thing in riding. First I took basic english lessons. Then i went to dressage basics then to breaking and training occasionally taking lessons with different trainers then "breaking" horses. Then riding western (with no trainer big mistake!), showing in different disciplines a little. What I ended up with were overactive and confused hands! Fortunately for me the horses were great teachers too. Please save yourself this very bad fault and the confusion of your horse and Stick with One good trainer in a discipline until you and your trainer and your horse decide its time to move on to something else. Ryan Rose highly recommended😄!!! Your horsemanship will be the better for it! I promise. Why do it the hard way when you have the answer right here?

    Oh I love Emily..she's just like me. I have trouble putting it all into practice but I'm lucky enough to ride a perfectly trained cutting, reining, trail horse. However, I still have to get it right even though the horse knows exactly what to do. It looks so much harder on green horse! Well done to Emily.

    Hi, Ryan. I just recently found your channel and I'm really enjoying your videos. I'm an older rider who has not ridden in a while due to recovering from multiple back surgeries. I own a twenty year old Tennessee Walker and have had her for seventeen years. She and I have ridden many miles together (she knows more about me than most people do)!! Anyway, I will soon start riding again and will start in the pasture. I hope to be using techniques you have taught in your video's. Wish me luck!!

    As a beginner i struggle with this a lot. Sometimes it can get pretty frustrating especially because adding pressure with my leg thats already at full strength can be a bit exhausting and to not see a yield happen is mentally disappointing. Definitely something i need go gain more confidence and experience with. Question; i always feel like using a stick whip and adding a bit of other physical pressure in that area if your leg gets tired or are we trying to teach this only with the leg?

    success with passing out of a circle is the rider timing the cue with the proper footfall. The best way to understand this is to get off the horse and YOU run around in a left circel whiole someone yells at you to side-pass out.. If they yell as your right foot hits the ground YOU have to wait until your left foot lands. Horses have four feet...learn how they all feel thru your seat. Rely on your butt and not your hands or legs or reins to time the "ask"

  • @chrisg-JTX
    @chrisg-JTX 3 года назад

    so dumb question here…in the counter clockwise circle, you’re telling her to use the inside leg…is that leg in the 3rd position…meaning the pressure is in the back? Why not turn him with the outside leg in the forward position? like i said, this might be a dumb question…but it’s a lil confusing.

    • @alexandrahollenstine6375
      @alexandrahollenstine6375 2 года назад +2

      Inside leg makes him stay on Emily’s circle and not his circle. Yes typically you use outside leg to turn but she has to push him out while turning because he keeps falling in to the circle

    • @Nutmeg142
      @Nutmeg142 2 года назад +1

      Inside leg moves the hip over, it should be slightly back and you push him up and into the outside rein so he doesn’t collapse into the circle.. Inside rein asks for collection. You keep opening and closing your hand for give and take. Outside rein and leg are the ones that actually ask for the circle.

    Emily is petting the horse excessively, and it happens literally at every single stop he makes, even when he isn't listening lmao. Patting can be good, I tend to scratch and rub my mare rather than pat, as a way to tell her she did good. I typically pat if she does a good stop or backup etc. But petting in excess just makes it meaningless to the horse.

  • @votethebulliesout2956
    @votethebulliesout2956 3 года назад

    That horses gates are crippled of the inner rein. Stopping it in and making it step of the inner lake is just getting your own back on the horse for trying to get out of this slowed gate torture and will in the long run confirm the horse in opposing the rider.
