Always keep the balls of your feet on the stirrup iron to keep your heels down. When you hold the reins, put your pinky & thumb on the opposite side of the reins as the rest of your fingers. If you are a beginner, you may start of on a lunge, which is a long rope that you can attach to the bridle with a hook. People also use a lunge to exercise the horse without riding him\her. When you are post trotting, never post too high, and always keep your back straight and not forward when you post.

In most of the Equestrian there are only well experienced trainers are there, so easily one can learn the horseback riding lessons quickly, safely and in professional manner as well.

If you want to stop a horse from running, pull one side of the reins so its head turns. If you do happen to find yourself on a horse that is not following your directions, you should get another horse.
