Larry Trocha
Hi – I'm Larry Trocha.
Over many years working with cutting, reining and working cow horses, I've developed a successful training program designed to teach horses to stop, spin, rollback, change leads and work cattle.
I am happy to share this specialized knowledge with you through my series of Horse Training DVDs and FREE Horse Training Tips Insider.
Click to watch the Stop & Back Up video clip
In this clip, reining & cutting horse trainer, Larry Trocha shows what cues the rider needs to use to ask a horse for a light, balanced stop & back up.
Special attention is given to how the rider should use his hands, legs and seat to get a good response from the horse.
The clip was taken from Larry's training DVD, Western Riding Know How.

DougHi Larry,
Thanks for the emails, I have been getting them. I still couldnt watch a video on hackamore and im really interested. Im new to training, my horse is three, had her since she was 4 mos. and have decided id rather not put a bit in her mouth, maybe not even a hackamore but that might be impractical at higher levels of schooling.
Im interested in your opinion tho im not sure you are "into" natural horsemanship" you are pbviously very knowledgeable, talented and must care about horses as well,
Thanks,
Doug
Jerry ByfieldLarry,
I have been using your videos for several years now and they are always of the highest quality and easy to understand. You have made my job (training horses for the public) a whole lot more simple. Thanks for everything.

RobinI saw the article in the newsletter about Bosals…do you think I could train my off the track thorobred to ride in one..????
joyHi Larry,
I could really use your help with my 15 year old Tennesse Walker mare; Gypsy.
On October 23, 2011 she reared up and sent me flying 10 feet with the end result of Lt. humerous being severely fractured. I was putting her Hackamore on and she took a hissy fit with the metal pieces getting too close to her mouth.
I am hopeful you can help this 60 year old gal from Canada.
many thanks.
JOY from Kelowna, B.C.
SteveJoy it sounds like your horse could use an Equine Dentist. She probably has some sharp teeth in her mouth and maybe even some other problems. That probably is why she acted out when you got the hackamore close to her mouth. If your horse has never saw an Equine Dentist in it's life then she probably has some serious issues in her mouth.
Here are some videos I think every horse owner should watch and get educated about this subject. Just search on you tube Equine Dentistry Made Easy to Understand Parts 1-10. Good educational videos to forward to people needing to understand dentistry better so they know what a proper job is and what your horse is living with. Forward them on to any horse owners you know.

MarietjeThanks, Larry,
for the video on how to stop and back a horse. The information about how to bring a horse into a canter is also good.

RosieHey, Larry.

Rosie
JayneHi Larry,
Your newsletters are a great help for me. I'm just starting a trainer program and your tips are just awesome. Though I was wondering if you do any "join ups" with younger or "green" horses? If you do, got any tips for when the horse doesn't submit right away, or what else I should be looking for. I think i might be missing a signal. Thanks a lot!!!!
Jayne
