Sit straight in the saddle and press knees and legs firmly against the sides of the horse. Move with the rhythm of the movement of the horse.

Who does the work when riding a horse the horse or the rider?

The Horse should work harder than the rider, if the horse is working correctly, this will be the case. The rider does a lot of work to keep the horse going/moving where he should. The rider uses their arms, legs, seat, hands, and weight balance to communicate to the horse. The horse works also since he is the one moving his body in the pace and direction that the rider asks for. Horse and rider are a team.

While riding a horse what ways are good to increase your balance?

To improve your balance whilst horse riding you can ride without your stirrups which increases your balance as you don't have your stirrups to rely on and have to use your bum to support your self. Also if it is possible to have a lunge lesson (where you are on the lunge line) you could ride without your reins and put your hands on your hips so that you are not relying on your hands and reins to keep you balanced. If you have your own horse you could also ride bareback. Trying out exercises on horseback help your balance too e.g. Around The World, Scissors etc.Hope this helps x
