Read Title: My BIGGEST problem. It's not too bad, but it's what I want to start working on asap.
What are some things I can do to accomplish this? And better yet, how exactly should I ride with my seat? I know to slow down a posting trot I can slow my posting and whatnot, ha ha. And I totally understand the concept of it, and have some of the basics of it down. But I kinda just need an explanation... you know?
My horse has a tenancy to be very forward moving and likes to GO. He does have breaks though.
I just want to be able to slow him or stop him with as little rein use as possible.
How can I do this?
I will be getting a dressage trainer, and I will be picky about this trainer.
I don't want to be learning the wrong or incorrect way. But until I find the right trainer I want to start working on this on my own. Any suggestions,tips, or explanations?
