Circling the Horse: Free Horseback Riding Lessons

Video Transcript

"Hi! My name is Sarah Stetner. I'm an expert horse rider on behalf of Expert Village. In this video, I am just showing you the basic steps of English Equitation. I just went over the English Equitation on how it is supposed to be and what you are judged on. Now we are walking as you can see. I am just going to go ahead and show you how to do a circle. I am going to ask him to turn to the inside. You always turn on the inside and he isn't all leg horse so I don't have to use as much reign on him but I am going to squeeze with my right or my left and pull right with the reign, so he is doing a circle. You want to turn your head when you are doing a circle as well, so I will show you again; nice circle. You want to keep the weight on your legs as well. Just keep them walking; so that is how you turn a circle. "
