How do I post (ride) a horse correctly?
I don't know how to ride a horse. I bounce up and down, slamming my butt and my back hurts the next day. Please tell me step by step how to ride a horse! I haven't ridden one in a long time and I've always been curious how to do it. Thanks in advance!
When I'm teaching young or novice riders to "post", I go through these steps:
First ask your horse to trot and allow yourself to bounce heavily in the saddle. Each time you bounce, count "1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2..." and so on. When you are ready and you have the count down pretty well, then you stand on the "2" count (or rather push yourself up out of the saddle. Eventually you will get in the rythem of a "posting trot".
If you wish to learn to "sit" the jog, I go through these steps:
As the horse to jog and allow yourself to bouce. Once you establish a rythem, then start alternating pressure from right to left so that you are rocking back and forth in the stirrups as the horse is trotting. This will keep your butt in the saddle, and it will also help the horse naturally slow down so that it becomes more comfortable.
If you ride western, you will want to learn the "jog" and remember to sit BACK in the saddle with your feet out in front of you. If you ride english you need to remember to sit straight up in the saddle and "post" on that "2" count. Whatever discipline that you choose, remember to keep your heels forced down and your toes up, this will sit you more securely in the saddle and if you are posting, rememeber to do it off the "balls" of your feet, so you don't want them too far into the stirrups. Hope this helps.
