Action Plan:

Make sure you are in a safe place, like the round pen for your first adventure on the horse! You need to position your body appropriately when you are about to mount your equine. You should be mindful of your posture and mindset. Don?t mount on the downhill if you are short or a beginner. Unless you have a distinct medical situation or limitation, the end objective should be you being able to mount the horse in any circumstance from the saddle. The mounting block makes it easier for you, is much better for your saddle and is much easier on your horse?s back, but is not a tool you should become used to using.

Getting on the equine is traditionally carried out on the left side but you ought to be able to do it on both sides. It is critical that you have trained the equine to stand still while you are trying to mount-yet another reason why desensitization is really important. Make sure all the tack is fit properly and that the horse is desensitized, aware of all stimulus and no stranger to carrying dead weight before you attempt to mount.

Place your body beside the equine?s shoulder and as you are about to mount, be aware of the place your hands are. Prevent developing the bad habit of grabbing the saddle horn to drag your self up on the horse. It?s all about balance devoid of putting the equine in any discomfort as much as possible. It is possible to take the reigns in one hand using a bit of mane, but do not use them as the main force to pull yourself up. By no means should you ever land hard in the seat. Always ensure your motions are fluid and controlled.

Riding like a true horseman:

Make sure that everything is in order just before you prompt the equine to be in motion. Take it slowly at the start and once you sense that the equine is responsive to your indicators and is used to hauling the additional weight, it is easy to increase the speed. You need to make sure you have complete control at every speed before you move on to a faster pace.

For example, if you are walking the equine and it is not responding to the cues for the left-hand turn correctly
