Confident Rider

Learn to ride with impulsion and confidence as you encourage your horse to drive from behind at the lope.

This ‘passenger exercise’ trains your horse to maintain a relaxed lope as you learn how to trust him and ‘let go’ and be a confident rider.

This exercise challenges and promotes your in-saddle balance so you can begin to develop a truly independent seat.

This creative exercise is easy, fun, and guaranteed to get you focused on your riding—instead of your nerves.

If you get breathless and jittery at the lope, try this to substitute enjoyment for anxiety.
