    I just cantered with my very scared mare today, she normally gets really stressed when I ask her to canter, now I'm so excited to start strengthening her 😍

    Never heard to follow the front leg landing. So much easier then feeling the rear leg!! Thank you

      Yes... when trotting you can either ask on the outside hind, or the inside fore... (same diagonal), just decide to either hind focus or front end focus, whichever works best for you. (I've taught riding for 30+ years.)
      You can also think like this... if you are front end focused, from the trot... ask when front R shoulder is forward (R hoof is up)... or ask when the L shoulder is back (L hoof is down). Ask with your inside leg at girth, outside leg slightly behind girth. Just think about it. You'll get it!! Also, watch this video again. It's the best I've found to teach canter from trot and walk. I send Amelia's videos to my students all the time. She is excellent teacher with excellent videos. Be blessed.

    Amelia, I just tried this at my lesson tonight and it was a massive lightbulb moment. My horse just "clicked" right into the canter and didn't rush or anything. He was then super excited to keep cantering and wanted to do more upward transitions! It was like snapping together a puzzle piece! It was incredible! Thank you so much!!

    I've learned (via Felicitas Von Neumann-Cosel, I think?), that if you need to post the trot into canter to sit twice (2 bounces/2 strides) so your seat is in the saddle on the 2nd bounce to ask for the canter at the right moment. Just wanted to add as an option in addition to the great description of feel and timing that Amelia has in this video.

      Do you ask for canter with your outside leg behind the girth the same time you sit your 2nd bounce, or after the 2nd bounce? Thanks!

    so, this video is two years old and still helping people! I have a lovely 4th level horse, new partnership. I am basically a second level rider trying to move up. The walk-canter transition is easy for us, but we sometimes miscommunicate in the trot canter and get a fast, rushing trot instead. Using this video along with the instruction of my excellent trainer got us back on track today! Thank you!

  • @amandafrench8047

    I think I cut out half of my previous comment.. What I meant to say was I don't have my own horses anymore -I'm 71 and still ride but only about once every few weeks but I love watching you. I have ridden English and more recently switched to Western moreso for the instructor. The lesson horses I ride are accomplished cutting and trail horses and they never go on the incorrect lead. I just do that 'kiss' thing and off they go. However I'm going to practice giving the aid as you described. This was a wonderful explanation and so glad you explained how to do it from the walk, as with these quarter horses I ride we almost always go into a lope from a walk. Thanks again xo from Australia

  • @jayeneedham3906
    @jayeneedham3906 2 года назад +1

    Today your explanation on how to count the trot off the front inside, and the connection to the back diagonal pair, but keeping the focus on the front inside for the count, to give the canter cue was instrumental for me…. I have struggle for years over thinking it and struggling to get it…. To the point after years I still don’t canter…. I’m feeling like today might be the day to try the counting…. Next week I just might cue the canter if all works well today. It clicked in my mind today…. I have a small cob size older horse that other can canter so I is my overthinking that has prevented us cantering more than about 20 steps in 12 years. Thanks for helping me make the connection in my mind.

  • @chloehooper7024
    @chloehooper7024 3 года назад +2

    My horse used to rush at the trot. I also have a horse that sometimes lunges in the canter. The horse the used to rush has gotten stronger and I have also developed as a rider so she can pick up canter easily. The mare that lunges into the canter is getting better with time and work. Thank you for sharing!

  • @tanon823
    @tanon823 3 года назад +1

    The association of the rising post with the timing for the canter was gold. It helps to be able to feel without needing to look down at the shoulder as that tends to put me a bit out of position. Another great tip. 👍🐴

    I have been riding for about half a year now, and I've struggled so much with asking for canter.

Will for sure think about this and try it next time I'm riding.

    Thank you for the focus on this. I struggle with the timing with a resulting trot into the canter, inversion of his head with his ears pinned or sometimes he even flips his rump up and kicks out. When I get the timing right, it is a fairly nice canter transition. You are awesome. Thanks

    @rachellambert8195 8 месяцев назад

    Hi Amelia, I think this could be lead to over thinking and tension in the rider. Very helpful to understand, if you get it wrong horse will probably still canter if balanced and set up, like yours, but delay by a stride. I think it’s a feel think as you say, but 90% of success is preparation 😊.

So much to learn and I realize that its time in the saddle that is the only way to learn and get the feel for it.

    • @AmeliaNewcombDressage

      When a horse is not balanced they are on the forehand and either rushing or breaking to the trot. The feeling is not good!

  • @vicky0920
    @vicky0920 Год назад +1

    So when you change from rising trot to sitting trot, do you apply your outside leg aid behind the girth when you sit your trot at odd or even number? I’m always confused if I should use my leg aid on the 2nd or the 3rd bounce. I suppose it’s the odd number because it’s when the outside hind leg begin to step forward? Appreciate if you can explain this 🙏🏻

    • @AmeliaNewcombDressage
      @AmeliaNewcombDressage  Год назад +1

      Hi Vicky,
      You are thinking on the right track. You want to ask for the canter when you would be posting up if you were rising the trot. When you are sitting the trot, look for the outside front leg to come forward (inside hind will be on the ground) and give your canter aid then.

  • @michawika8991
    @michawika8991 Год назад +1

    When I’m riding a young horse in rising tort (rather rarely in a sitting trot since he is really not ready for - not having good enough contact on the bit and not so supple in the swinging back) it is demanding sometimes to do smooth transition into canter for me, especially a few first transitions. His outside hind leg is on the ground while I am in the rising position, so in the next sequence I sit in the saddle and I stay one more bit with aids to canter (while his outside hind leg is again on the ground). But sometimes I feel like I am pushing him into rushing instead of into canter. I feel that time his back is not supple enough, so my staying in the saddle is immediately impacting him, but also this impacts quality of my aids unfortunately. Then, more transitions we do during the training we are getting better and better. The less smooth are always the first transitions during the training. I am patiently working on this but do you have some additional suggestions for this on the young horse? Thank you.

      Good question! You might try putting him in a little shoulder fore when you ask or asking as you are spiraling out on a circle. Here are a couple videos that might be helpful: ruclips.net/video/nlm1NS5tedY/видео.html

    This has helped, I tend to over think how far to put the outside leg to far back and still bumping him. It looks like your holding your leg until he canters then start bumping again. Is that correct?

    Amelia, it was a great teaching because I finally understood when I need to ask for canter😊!!! Funny and I loved it that your horse will get it right anyway❤! Is it difficult to go from posting trot to canter?

    dear Amelia, I am from Holland, so exuse me if the word are not correctly. So I ask the right time for the canter. When the inside front leg lands on the ground, I give the aid for cater. You said: now, now, now, canter! So at the moment you said "canter" you give the aid? because I think I am to late. Thank you

    Hello Amelia. Do You have recommandations about how to become from a trot to stop without walking steps?
    Best regards,
    Gerda

    Dianne: on the canter transition, I didn’t hear a verbal cue? Or was it a kick to the side?

    • @AmeliaNewcombDressage
      @AmeliaNewcombDressage  Год назад

      Hi Dianne, Great question. You can give a verbal cue a first if it helps your horse pick up the canter, but eventually you want to be able to use your leg aids to give the cue and not have to use your voice. The canter aid is inside leg at the girth, outside leg slightly behind the girth. If you give these aids, and your horse doesn't respond, then you could give a verbal cue if needed. Also, make sure to check that you gave the aids at the correct moment. Here is another video that might be helpful: ruclips.net/video/4n8RE5Ybqv0/видео.html

    I have a 25 yr old quarter horse who has never gotten comfortable at the canter. Do you think I should even try to work on the canter or just be happy with his beautiful trot?

    • @AmeliaNewcombDressage
      @AmeliaNewcombDressage  Год назад

      That's totally up to you and what you're looking to do! If you're happy with just trotting, there is no need to canter :)
