You need to have a good, stable leg position while riding your horse to give your horse correct and reproducible leg aids. If you can't do this, you risk confusing your horse, and then the horse has no chance of doing what you request of him. In this video, I explain what the correct leg position looks like. First, I explain the classically correct leg position, then I tell you about the 2 most common faults riders have with their leg position, and then if you wait until the end, I give you a tip on leg pressure.
This horse riding lesson is for beginners through to advanced riders. If you want to train your horse you need to have a correct horse rider position as it is your most valuable asset. If you are looking for some dressage training for beginners through to advanced riders I hope you find my videos helpful.

Great instruction on leg position. You are absolutely correct on all accounts. My instructor used to tell me, “drape my legs on the side of my horse like a hunk of meat slapped onto the side of my horse.” In other words, do not grip with your legs but let your legs drop naturally with continuous light contact throughout your thighs to lower calves. Your thighs are relaxed normally.

Total knee out girl here. I tried this the other night....pulling the back of my thigh out of the way, and turned my heels OUT to roll my leg in. Oh my goodness, my balance was better, my posting was better, everything was better. You are the first person to help me get my legs correct! I thought I was just doomed with bad conformation! I recently found your videos and I'm getting a ton out of them. Keep them coming!

This is an area I'm struggling with! I'm being told to turn my toes out which pulls my knees away from the saddle & creates more of a bounce, throwing me more off balance. I'm struggling to get my heels down & back, but keep my calf pressure on...other's seem to get this so easily. I find if I ride without stirrups it's easier to get the correct leg position, which tells me I'm too reliant on the stirrups for balance

I sure love when you have Spider in the videos 😁. He is a gorgeous boy. So I am the correct leg, knee pointed forward and I also describe to my students how to post by saying that they need to rely on the grip of their thighs and the power of the horses haunches pushing them up to help them rise out of the saddle. For me it's about being one and well connected with the horse 😁. I even teach them to post without irons to help with it so they don't end up getting lazy and relying on pushing from the irons.
@BasicHorseTraining
@BasicHorseTraining 2 года назад
Posting without irons is a fabulous exercise isn't it Roxanne. I still do it to this day and am always amazed at how quickly I get fatigued but when you take your irons back...wow you notice how much you were using them and how little you actually need to!

Hi Josie, I am really enjoying your videos as in the past two months I have got back into horse ownership after many years raising my family. I am 55 so need to work on flexibility and riding my horse Arthur has been great. He has needed to transition from hunting and was very spooky and I realised that I am back to learning to ride again so your videos are so relevant to us both. Thankfully it has been going well but long way to go before a first dressage test!! Looking forward to your videos coming out and watching previous videos of yours.

Thank you for all the tips and insides. My horse is oversensitive of any pressure on her body when I'm riding. We are now 5 months riding under the saddle. When I give her leg pressure, she kind of panics and wants to run of. With your tips I hope she will understand in time that I am not so bad.
@BasicHorseTraining
@BasicHorseTraining 2 года назад
I don't know what is actually happening with your horse as I cant see but sometimes when horses go faster we can "grab/Squeeze" a little more with our legs or even lean a little forward as an instinctual self-preservation reflex. This can cause the horse to go even faster and then it becomes a bit of a self-fulfilling loop. Just check that you don't increase your leg pressure by accident. When you give a leg aid start at a scale of 1 (in pressure) and move up to as far as you need to get her to give you a response then take the pressure away. She may only require a 1 but you are always giving her a 4?? Also, remember that hot horses do need to accept the leg and lazy horses need to be ridden with limited leg pressure. 🙂

I recently saw a video of myself riding and I think I have a knees out and lower leg slightly back. I know, I should ride better but, I cannot help but think it is because my mare is a very thick and heavy Friesian as well. (Don't get me wrong... I love her and have had her for over 14 years). But, her body has been a challenge: Thick and very heavy to ride. So, I think I have developed knees out and leg back riding position. I will work on your suggestions.

@BasicHorseTraining
@BasicHorseTraining 2 года назад
Ann I would get him to do some stretches. It shouldn't "hurt" and as much as we need to stretch our limits to improve and become more flexible we shouldn't cause ourselves pain. Remember that he only needs to do a little every day and tiny improvements add up to big ones over time.

I watched the correct alignment and then had to comment. I take it correct knee placement is for the benefit of the horse. Is it for his comfort or direction? Also, where is it written that if you do not ride in this manner that perhaps maybe you should not be riding? I say this because my knees get very angry after a while if too far bent. My right knee needs replacement which I refuse to do until I can absolutely no longer walk. So, my leg is almost straight while my other leg is just slightly bent. This is a bit comfortable for me and my horse has not yet told me she does not like my seat. Can you tell us where we can read who wrote this “proper rule of riding”? Thank you.
@BasicHorseTraining
@BasicHorseTraining 2 года назад
Hi Shirley, the "correct" position is written about in most books on dressage and it is for biomechanical reasons. It allows the rider to be the most comfortable weight for the horse to carry and it "helps" the rider to balanced and give aids independently. I'm not sure why you wrote this sentence - "Also, where is it written that if you do not ride in this manner that perhaps maybe you should not be riding?" As I didn't say that and I haven't seen that written anywhere. I am a Registered Nurse of some 38 years and my advice to you would be to get your knee done asap. I have NEVER heard anyone say that they wish they didn't get their knee replaced but everyone I know has wished they got it done earlier as they put up with pain for far longer than they needed to. My farrier even had both of his done at the same time and then was back doing his job pain-free. I truly hope you get relief from your knee pain as joint pain is not very nice.

Up until now it always felt like some stupid english tradition to look good, but without any actual use for the horse or my riding.

I would love to know what exercises you do to help with flexibility in the hip - as I have gotten older I have started to have the exact same problem of feeling like I need to reach down and pull my thigh "padding" back so that I can lay my leg in the correct position. I know my hip flexors are tight so that causes problems as well. This all creates an interesting issue as I find that I actually end up twisting my knee and ankle inward to compensate for not being able to lay the thigh flat, which obviously causes a fair bit of pain in the hip, knee, and ankle since those joints are not supposed to work that way 😅

Thank you so much! LOVE all your videos. I am knew at riding (1 year with 2 different skilled horses) and the Basics for me is so important. For me it’s not the knees, it’s keeping my balance and NOT bend forward…I need to sit in the saddle. I appreciate you mentioning using the upper leg thighs bum…and not the stirrups to do post trot. What helped me understand is that the horse’s hind leg will assist me with my post trot wow that in itself is an eye opener. Again thanks happy I found your videos much appreciated 😍

The stirrup leathers may be stretched to different lengths. Often the left leather is longer due to getting on that side and if they aren't rotated it will cause a lot of issues.

Hi after looking at your video I feel I have comment on your teaching of not standing in the stirrups. I must point out that this is not wrong. Many instructors will tell you the weight must be on the seat bones and in the heel. If you hold the horse lightly with you lower leg this helps and makes it easier and quicker to apply the aids. Also I feel that the tension from your hips is because you are using your thighs. Please take a look at showjumpers and cross country riders to see them use this principle.

Hi Susan, I think you might need to re-read your answer, it doesn't make sense. I think you have accidentally left the word "not" in front of the word "wrong". Perhaps you edited it and missed that word ... I do that all the time lol. Every classical riding book I've read stated that you "don't" stand in the stirrups, yes there is weight in them but you don't stand in them, your weight is evenly distributed over your seat. Showjumpers and cross-country riders ride in a two-point seat and that is just what it says. - two points of contact so the actual seat bones/ seat is not involved and therefore you have to "stand" in your irons.

An older instructor I had, 89, used to tell me to roll my thighs on. I guess that's the same thing? Than kid for the video

Hey Josie I enjoy your videos and break down and explains. I’ve been back to riding after many years off so starting over basically. My instructor is good but I think her experience is so far advanced she forgets what it’s like to be a beginner. I’ve also have found Sally Swifts book to be helpful. I’m gonna try putting some of these tips into practice today. Appreciate you sharing talents and time with us.

I have been flopping around a bit and didn't know why until I saw this video. I just started seriously riding this year. Your videos have been very helpful.

Oh thank you for explaining so easily. I used to ride confidently until I started my BHS AI course, the instructor got me paranoid about my leg position as she was so into dressage that I felt and still feel that I have to ride long and deep, it takes over my enjoyment of riding as I cannot get out of my head the dressage position, to allow me to jump, I love schooling don't get me wrong, but I feel stuck in this long stirrup position and when I shorten the stirrups I feel a mess, your explanation has helped me no end, thank you so much xxx
