Equestrian Training and Riding Skills Video Directory
Florida Horse Shows presents a series of horse training videos to help you train your horse for safety and performance. Learn the basics about being around horses, such as how to appraoch a horse.
Learn how to desensitize your horse and improve your horse's reaction to new situations.
Approaching a horse in a stall involves reaching your hand out to get the horse to walk toward you, after which you can slip a halter over his head.
Mounting a horse involves bouncing up as quickly as possible to minimize the discomfort of the horse.
A proper dismount involves taking both feet out of the stirrups, leaning forward while rotating one leg back and slipping off of the animal gracefully.
Holding the feet in the stirrups varies depending on the style of riding and the height of the rider.
Holding the reins requires strong posture and a consistent grip to avoid agitating the horse's bit.
