This video will help your horse with developing his back muscles and as an added bonus it will help you with your balance in the saddle. Please let me know how you go as I would love to hear.

Hi Josie! Do you do in person lessons? I’m telling you, I want to visit Australia & see all the places my grandfather visited. PLUS I have to see your boys, all of them, but especially, my guy Spider 🕷 😊 Of course, I’d love to see ALL your horses! I actually know two other people who live in Australia, horse people that I met through RU-vid and it’s making me want to visit even more. I wonder how close you are all to each other.. Thanks for another great video!🙏🏼 Your videos are really good quality, especially for someone who does it all herself, without a film crew! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-a3-JCUfrU-M.html

I do teach but I don’t do a lot of it because I am also a Registered Nurse and work in the ED so between that, my horses and my RU-vid channel i find it hard to fit people in. I would love to meet you and I know Spider would love to as well 😊

Thank you so much! Love your clear, concise videos. You get to the point, show us the skills, and clarify pitfalls. I subscribed after the first one. I've always ridden horses that "knew" what to do, and have an old OTTB - my "treadmill" horse when I need to work on me - so I'm often "stuck" when my young Standardbred can't do something or is doing something wonky, and I don't know how to fix it. A wealth of information on your site, and I look forward to trying many of these skills. Thanks again.

@pariahmouse7794 2 года назад

This is so timely, haha- I am working with a new instructor (again- but this one's a keeper, haha!) and although I do want to focus on dressage, she is a hunter/jumper, though she can do it all, which is what I am striving for eventually! Anyway, she has had me do a half seat often lately, I love the feeling of flexion in the knees and ankles, I need to work maybe loosening my hips? She also had me work on light seat, which I find slightly confusing, especially when she had me try to sit trot in a light seat, I couldn't do it very well without bouncing! If you could do something on light seat that would be amazing, this was amazing, thank you and Spider once again!

@teresamaparhoades4779 2 года назад

This is a great video - I was wondering - when you go from rising trot to two point trot - do you adjust your rein length?? Thanks !

@BasicHorseTraining 2 года назад

That depends Teresa, If I'm working on my balance I don't want any temptation to hang/balance on the reins. Also depends if you have a reliable horse. 🙃

@HuntClubBarbie 9 месяцев назад

My challenge is I always ride in a 2 point seat and don't know how to sit down in the saddle. Because I'm always in that giddyup and go position, it's difficult to keep my horse from giddyup and going out of a canter into a gallop. Have had that collected canter and wld love to stay there but my body language is signalling otherwise. And, because I anticipate getting a gallop I'm gathering the reigns before asking for a canter so I'm prepared when I get a gallop, instead. It's SO difficult to unlearn a lifetime of instinctive riding mistakes. Try to keep "nose behind belly button" in my mind... ;-D.

@DB-xe1vy 2 года назад

Great explanation. I get conflicting advice from different instructors. One says to keep your back flat during 2 point, another says to arch your back "hollow". Which is correct? I have a tendency to hollow and it is a little bit painful over time.

@BasicHorseTraining 2 года назад

Your back should be in a normal "curve". You need to make sure you are really engaging your core muscles and that will help with the pain.

@dianebailesEq 2 года назад

Great video and explanation! I have been practicing this for a couple of weeks now and learning to jump. My problem is keeping my leg on when I go in to 2 point. When I try to put my leg on (going over the jump) I lose my balance. Any tips?

@BasicHorseTraining 2 года назад

Hi Diane, It is hard to give you an answer without seeing what is going on but here are a couple of things to check. Make sure you are not "grabbing" with your knees as this will stiffen them and you will lose your balance for sure. Your calves should gently "hug " your horses sides as that still allows the knee and ankle to do the job they need to do and helps you to feel secure in your position. When coming into a fence my instructor used to tell me to "smile" at the poles with my feet. By this she meant to imagine that I had a smile painted on the sole of my boots and as I came into the fence I should "smile" at the fence. This meant I would stretch through my ankle and show the pole my "smile". In doing this my calf would expand as I lowered my heel and automatically come in contact with the horses side. Just make sure that you don't push your lower leg forward as you "smile". I hope that helps you

@korimiller1596 2 года назад

I can never seem to fix my two-point over fences. I tend to sit back into the saddle right away, which causes my arms to go straight, and have a terrible release. Are there any tips that would help landing in a more forward position?

@lindsayCswain Год назад

Oh and also what stirrup length do you need to do this? Shorter than normal or that was just for the demonstration?

@Giulia_2000 9 месяцев назад

How do I give leg while posting trot or two point trot? My horse is a bit lazy and sometimes needs some extra leg to keep him going without transitioning to walk.😂

@DB-xe1vy 2 года назад

Is it possible to 2 point without stirrups? Without putting the weight in the stirrups it seems I will be pinching the horse with my knees.

@BasicHorseTraining 2 года назад

You would be as you would have to grip with your knees. The ankle joint is supposed to absorb some of the movement and without the stirrup it wont be able too.

@zoebosman8561 2 года назад

Why is it called "two point seat" again

@veroniqueviaudFaspasie_1957 Год назад

All of the weight of your body ON ONLY TWO POINTS : STIRRUPS. This is why it is called like that. It asks for having good muscles in the chore. You must engage it with " no effort ". Exercises are required, Josie helps good with it. 😊🐴🇫🇷
