Sitting The Trot | How To Move Your Seat. In this video, I will show you how I move my seat/pelvis when I'm working in sitting trot. When I was taught how to sit the trot I was continuously told to sit still but this is not the truth. If you try to sit still you will end up bouncing even more. You must allow your body to move with the horses' movement and that gives the ILLUSION that you are sitting still. I show you how my pelvis moves when I sit trot and I give you 3 sitting trot tips. This will show how to do sitting trot for beginners and will show you how to sit the trot without bouncing.
I hope it helps you as it helped me and no laughing at my "on the ground" part of the video 😆!

Sitting trot was the hardest thing I have ever taught myself to do! I hope this video helps you and I would love it if you let me know whether the tips worked for you. Thank you for watching.

Thank you for these videos! I am a complete beginner at riding and I feel like I’m getting more information from your videos than from my actual coach.

@yogawithkassandra 2 года назад

Thank you!! I really struggle with this and feel guilty bouncing on my horse's back whenever I attempt this.. I'll give your tips a try :)

@BasicHorseTraining 2 года назад

I hope it helps. Try not to feel guilty as we all have to learn somewhere. I alway think that I give my horses a kind and loving home where they want for nothing so I’m sure they don’t mind helping me become a better rider 😊

@user-it4rt5wf4p 11 месяцев назад

I've been riding for 13 years, more than half my life. I've taken years of hunter/jumper AND dressage lessons, and not one instructor ever taught me how to sit the trot. I even thought I was doing it right, because no instructor ever told me otherwise, and that it was just supposed to be that jolting. After watching your video and practicing it on just a handful of rides, I feel relatively competent at sitting trot - not perfect, but lightyears better than before. You are an exceptional teacher, Josie. Thank you for doing what you do!

@jenniferhughes2833 3 года назад

I’ve been checking out how to do this on different videos and your explanation is the first that I have actually understood. Can’t wait to try this again now.

@BasicHorseTraining 3 года назад

I CANNOT thank you enough!! I am a jumper, we took out our stirrups a few days ago in a lesson and I really got to put this into practice. I got compliments on my seat and got my horse to move nicely, he’s not the most sensitive, so that felt awesome! Your explanation gave me my aha moment! Thank you so much! 😁

But after last night watching this, today i tried to FEEL that right-left diagonal movement and voila! ..at the end of the practice my coach ask me to canter! Achievement unlocked!

Years ago an instructor had our horse club group learn belly dance hip movements, which happen to be the same movements in sit trot/western amble. It was easier for us pre-teen girls to get into our heads, and made the motion feel more natural.

@quarantinecrafters4843 2 года назад

This is a million dollar video! I had countless instructors that each had their own way of teaching sitting trot. ( from youngster to now a senior) I’d say I’m a rusty intermediate rider in everything except the sitting trot. Watched your video and rode for the first time since. It felt magical, like I was actually moving with the trot! Thank you!

@BasicHorseTraining 2 года назад

I am so glad it helped you! It’s a fabulous feeling when you get it 😊

@quarantinecrafters4843 2 года назад

The transition from rising trot, to sitting trot, to walk, is where I’m now having difficulty. If the horse braces going into walk, (not walking immediately) how do you stay relaxed to sit trot as I’m bracing my body for a firmer whoah.

@pariahmouse7794 2 года назад

Funny you talked about how the ankle must flex- the ONLY way I could sit trot in the beginning was with no stirrups, doing ankle circles- otherwise I would tense up and start gripping. But the ankle circles eventually got my focus off of gripping, AND helped me learn how to flex the ankle. It took a long time for me to be able to sit WITH stirrups, haha, but I got there! Greta videos, you are the best!

@BasicHorseTraining 2 года назад

Yep! You need to balance and not grip. It's a hard lesson to learn ... now I'm going to go out and see if I can circle my ankles without stirrups so thank you for the tip 😊.
