How To Get Started In Horseback Riding<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>****************************************************************<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. What Dr. Phil Might Ask You About The Whoa In Your Horse<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s trainer Andy Curry discussing what Whoa means:<\/p>\n<p>Every trainer I&#8217;ve worked with has<br \/>\nagreed on the same thing.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to &#8216;Whoa&#8217;, it means stop.<\/p>\n<p>Not &#8216;slow down&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Not &#8216;Wait!&#8230;I&#8217;m about to fall off.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Nope.<\/p>\n<p>It means stop.<\/p>\n<p>When we filmed Diana Quintana her remark was:<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Whoa means STOP NOW!, Drop Dead,<br \/>\ndie right here&#8230;RIGHT NOW!&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>There are various ways of teaching<br \/>\na horse to stop.<\/p>\n<p>But I want to touch on a few mistakes<br \/>\nthat are often made when teaching it.<\/p>\n<p>The first mistake is asking the horse<br \/>\nto stop when you first get him in the pen.<\/p>\n<p>Heck, the horse is fresh.\u00a0 So you gotta get<br \/>\nthe fresh off him.<\/p>\n<p>One way to do that is let them work<br \/>\nfor a bit.<\/p>\n<p>After you&#8217;ve worked the horse they&#8217;re<br \/>\ngoing to appreciate the stop.\u00a0 In fact,<br \/>\nthey&#8217;re going to want it.<\/p>\n<p>They DON&#8217;T want it while they&#8217;re fresh.<\/p>\n<p>Another mistake made is pullin&#8217; on them with the reins.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve gotten emails from people who&#8217;ve<br \/>\nsaid things like, &#8216;My horse wouldn&#8217;t stop<br \/>\nand I was pulling on the reins like crazy.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>My first question to that horse owner<br \/>\nwould be, &#8216;If it&#8217;s not workin&#8217; for you,<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t you think you should try something else?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s true.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Phil always asks, &#8216;How&#8217;s that workin&#8217; for ya?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>If it&#8217;s not, then cut it.<\/p>\n<p>If it is, then use it. (Provided it&#8217;s<br \/>\nhumane, of course.)<\/p>\n<p>So getting a horse to stop is not about pulling on the reins.<\/p>\n<p>Besides, your horse will out-pull you<br \/>\nand you&#8217;ll teach him to lean on the bit.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, use your seat.<\/p>\n<p>Quit riding when you wanna stop.<\/p>\n<p>Try this.<\/p>\n<p>Next time you&#8217;re on your horse, just<br \/>\nsit in the saddle.<\/p>\n<p>Pretend someone threw a ball to you<br \/>\nand it went right to your stomach.<\/p>\n<p>As you catch it, your stomach will<br \/>\nkind of go backwards and your hips forward.<\/p>\n<p>How&#8217;s that for a description of what<br \/>\nyour seat should be like?<\/p>\n<p>If you can, try it out on your horse.<\/p>\n<p>Remember to take the fresh off him first.<\/p>\n<p>The next thing I want to point out<br \/>\nis something that seems small&#8230;but critical.<\/p>\n<p>After you stop your horse, count to 10.<\/p>\n<p>Why?<\/p>\n<p>Because it gives you a gauge on how<br \/>\nlong to wait before moving your horse<br \/>\nagain and, most importantly&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It lets your horse<br \/>\nknow what a stop is.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>This &#8216;Count to 10&#8217; rule is one of the<br \/>\nmany things Diana Quintana reveals in her<br \/>\nDVD about her 30 day horse training regiment.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to know more about her<br \/>\nmethods, click on the following:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/horsetrainingresources.com\/dvd-dianaq.html\" title=\"Read More About Diana Quintana's DVD HERE\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Read More About Diana Quintana&#8217;s DVD HERE <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Remember.<\/p>\n<p>Stop means stop.<\/p>\n<p>Whoa means whoa.<\/p>\n<p>Whoa means don&#8217;t move those legs &#8211; STOP!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/horsetrainingresources.com\/dvd-dianaq.html\" title=\"Read More About Diana Quintana's DVD HERE\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Read More About Diana Quintana&#8217;s DVD HERE <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>************************************************************<\/p>\n<p><strong>2.
