When we’re taught to ride, we’re usually told to turn the horse left by pulling on the left rein, and turn the horse right by pulling on the right rein. Although this makes things simple for a small child to understand, it’s incorrect.

Buy using the inside rein in isolation, you will:
❌ Have too much neck bend.
❌ Lose control of your horse’s outside shoulder.
❌ Fail to make a correct canter strike off (your horse will be more likely to strike off with his outside leading leg).
❌ Cause a lack of alignment in your horse’s body, preventing him from engaging his hind legs.

Instead, when riding circles, turns, and corners, you need to use ALL of your bending aids. (Ironically, you inside rein is the one you should be using the least.)

For more help with bending and aids, check out our newest book on Amazon (which is currently on sale until 4th November). Link in the comments.

You learn more from failure than success. Let’s break that down in terms of riding. What did you learn from the good ride? It’s great to have one and we all deserve them, but what did you learn? The truth is we all learn more from the tough one or as lots of people calm them the bad one, but was it bad? No it wasn’t because it offered to you new tools, new ideas so in reality It was indeed a good lesson. How is growing and learning ever bad? You can’t have success without failure, failure is just learning. Keep growing, and remember that’s why pencils have erasers.
