The #1 Canter Mistake Most Riders Make (DO THIS FOR A BALANCED CANTER)

Many riders are taught to run their horses into the canter, which leads to a loss of balance and rhythm. Today, Megan breaks down why you should prioritize walk-to-canter and canter-to-walk transitions and how to use the "Indirect Rein" and proper rider leg position to achieve a balanced, calm canter transition. Classical Horsemanship focuses on practical horse training, softness, communication, and building a willing partnership through clear and effective riding principles. We share training videos, riding demonstrations, event footage, educational content, and behind the scenes work with our horses.
