Horse Training Tips – Stand Still
Dear Friend and Horseman,
Welcome to another Horse Training Tips Newsletter.
This issue is actually a training video.
In the video, I demonstrate how to teach your horse to stand still so you get on.
Training Your Horse to Stand Still to Mount
Well, this wraps it up for this newsletter. I hope you liked it.
Until next time, have fun training your horse.

@Penny: Hi Penny. First, determine the root problem that has caused the horse to act like this. Was it the rider's toe poking the horse in the ribs? Was it the left rein too tight? What ever the cause, eliminate it.
Second, you can control the hip from moving away from you by pulling the off-side rein. Put the rein over the saddle horn like I demonstrate in the video. When the horse moves his hips away from you, pull the right rein, bringing the horse's head to the right, until the hip stops moving.
Good luck.

What if the horse consistently turns on his forehand, swinging his hip out away from you as you're trying to mount? How do you apply pressure to the hip that you can't reach?

@lynn: #1. Make sure your reins aren't tight, causing him to back. #2. Do just the opposite of what I instruct in the video… Get on and immediately trot forward.

what do you do if the horse is already backing as you are trying to mount?
