Beginner Horseback Riding Lesson: Using Poles to Help a Rider Learn How to Post
This is Hannah’s first lesson on Marley. She has had about 5 riding lessons in total. Hannah is 6 years old and riding very well for her age and level of experience. We are working on bringing her lower leg under her so she doesn’t have so much of a “chair seat.” Chair seat means that the rider has her legs out in front of her and is using the stirrups to push herself back in her saddle, up against the cantle. Riders usually assume a chair seat position because they don’t want to commit to being up over the horse’s motion – they are afraid of falling forward over the neck. For posting the trot, the riders legs should be in alignment with her hips, so that if the horse were to disappear out from underneath her, she would land on her feet. The posture is a lot like the athletic stance once assumes for tennis.
Marley is a 5 year old, 14h Welsh Cob. He is offered for sale. www.PonyPros.net

You want to have it away from your other fingers on your forehand, this will loosen your wrist and allow more movement as well as give you more control of the racquet head, the closer your hand is to your racquet head the more control you’ll have.
