My Six Shooter Gun [01:31]
This is Cole. Otherwise known as the equitation horse who forgot how to trot. He's been off for a few months due to lameness; only to find that his limping was fake. These were the very few good shots of today, all cantering, in some he looks like he's tropping. I look as stiff as a board. -Sony Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 12 -Pumped Up Kicks by Foster The People

Demonstrating proper Equitation walk-trot [01:34]
Equitation is vital, especially in a show. It's just the "book" way of how you should look on a horse from the basics to the olympic levels. Walk- trot is simple. I listed some of the things that should be on your equitation checklist in the video. You'll also see a comment I included about making the horse work off her back end. As a horse is supposed to be balanced, the "power" should come from the back end. Keep contact in the front, but make sure your horse's hind end is always engaged. Another pointer... a sitting trot should be visibly slower than a rising or posting trot. while in the sitting trot, try not to bounce all over the saddle. Some horses are very bouncey. A way to strengthen yourself up to be able to handle this with good eq would be to try no stirrups. This strengthens your leg and teaches you not to rely on stirrups to balance you. Also lets you really get the feel of the horse's motion/

FLASHY 17.2hh TB MARE FOR LEASE, POTENTIAL+ [02:51]
HD please! =) I do not claim ownership to the audio in any way, all copyright goes toward it's intended owner/s. Looking for a part time leaser for lovely mare for 2-4 days per week (one will be a lesson day). Beverley is available immediately. Looking for a show minded rider. Beverley has potential+. Beverley is a 6 y/o TB. She is a big boned girl, built more like a WB. Overall she is a big sweetheart and has a great personality. She is green, however she is sane, but due to her size and that she is still learning the ropes herself I would like a teenager or young adult who is confident in their abilities as well as looking to be in a consistent lesson program with coach of my approval, depending on your abilities this may be negotiable. If beginner rider I would like leaser to be in regular lessons with coach on site. Beverley is very honest and willing to please, she really wants to make her rider happy. She is not flighty or hot. W/T/C on lunge, W/T/C under saddle. Goes on lunge line or free lunging. Has been started over small fences, she pops right over no hesitation. Stands for vet/farrier and to groom/tack up. Quick learner. She is kept UTD on everything. Very much a "people horse", loves attention. Sane enough for my green to horses boyfriend to ride on his own at a trot, as well as double bareback. She takes everything as if she has been doing it her whole life =) This being said I would not advise her for a beginner who has no previous horse experience or is ...

Newcomer Hunter equitation [03:23]
This is the first of a series of 3 videos from my FIRST SHOW EVER!! Since this was only my 4th month of lessons, please no mean comments on my jumping... I know its bad, but I'm getting better :D So this is my equitation class of my newcomer 18` division, I didn't take part in the flat class because my coach didn't want to canter with the other/unknown horses. Thanks again to my friend Nat for taping me ;)
