Is a rider moving in dressage a bad thing?
A rider's movements in dressage should be as subtle as possible - a small movement of the heel, a flexing of the fingers. Ideally, the horse and rider should be almost a single coordinated unit, with the rider's requests being very inconspicuous and the horse's responses immediate. Bouncing on the horse's back indicates that the rider is not moving fluidly with the animal. This tends to be caused by stiffness or tension in either the horse, the rider, or both. The lowest levels of dressage (Introductory Level, which is walk and trot only, and Training Level, which is walk-trot-canter) can be ridden by people (and horses) with very little experience, and at those levels there is likely to be considerable movement of the rider, regarding both directing the horse and bouncing or moving in the saddle. However, even there, the goal is to be as "quiet" on the horse as possible.

Should you learn to canter in the half seat or sitting?
Use of the half seat is supposed to be easier on a horse's back but requires strength and balance that a beginner rider usually doesn't possess. Lack of strength and balance will lend itself to balancing with the reins in a half seat. Unless the rider has the conditioning aat the walk and trot to effect a balanced half seat before they start to canter a sitting canter is easieroon both the horse and rider.
