You dont nessacerailly train a horse to stop going fast. Its all a matter of rudeness. You might need to consider buying a stronger bit. Or try getting your saddle fitted. You could also try having some dressage lessons, this will loosen up the horses movement and make the paces flow a bit more.
Stopping a horse is the same in most every gait. You should sit deeply in the saddle, close your lower leg around the girth and give gentle but firm squeezes on the reins to let the horse to know that you wish to slow down or stop.

What is a pirouette at canter?

How can you get rid of your nerves before im about to canter on your horse?
think of how well you are doing to be cantering. It takes allot of trust between the horse and rider to comunicate, so think of how much the horse must trust you. If your horse runs off into canter, lean back and sit deap into the saddle. use voice alot, this will carm the horse and yourself, use slow words like 'steeaaady'.. If you are nervous about cantering, your horse will get nervous, so don't do it, at least on your horse. Try finding a short, old, slow horse or pony to learn to canter on. Short so that it is less of a fall, which does alot to help with nerves. Old so that it is calm, and slow because speed is scary, so a slow canter is best when getting over fears. Get comfortable on this little horse/pony, then build up to a little bit taller, younger, faster horse. Get comfortable, and repeat until you can ride your own horse confidently.

Riders often practice transitioning smoothly between these gaits to improve their horse's balance and responsiveness.
How can you transition into a smooth canter straight from a trot?
By telling your horse to canter...but your horse needs to know how to canter and needs lots of practise, and he also needs to know the command "canter". after he/she gets what you want, practise going from a trot to a canter. soon enough your horse will be transitioning smoothly! good luck!

What do you have to do to get your horse to go from a canter to a walk?
Lightly pull on the reigns to get him to slow down. But this varies from horse to horse depending on the way your horse is trained; just give him the usuall cues to slow down, until he is walking instead of cantering. Actually depending on your horses training depends on how easily he picks up the idea of canter to walk. I own two dressage horses one who knows canter to walk by working him on a ten metre circle, collecting the canter then giving the aid for walk, he is working elementary at home and the other already knew this movement before i had him as he is trained to grand prix level but it all comes from your SEAT NOT REINS!.
