It depends on how you train your horse. My riding teacher taught me to pull (gently, but firm) with my inside rein, squeeze with my inside leg (thus asking for the correct lead), and kick with your outisde leg when at a trot.

Inside leg on the girth, outside leg behind the girth, squeeze on, sit in trot, wait for corner if possible

How do you you go from walk to canter?

you cant go from walk straight into canter u go into trot then u go into sitting trot which is very bumpy then u go into canterfrom wowwikiwowOf course you can go from walk into canter. In fact, it is an easier transition as your horse has two or three feet on the ground at the same time, whereas in trot, he has a moment of suspension, therefore making it easier for him to become unbalanced.To go from walk into canter, a good trick is to halt your horse initially to balance him, then ask for one to two full walk paces. Sit deeply on your inside seat bone and place your outside leg behind the girth to get the weight onto the outside quarters and help him onto the correct leg. He should then go into canter. If he persists to trot, keep applying the canter aids but if he rushes and becomes unbalanced, bring him back to a walk and try again.To ask for a canter to walk transition, use half-halt aids.


Do you sqeese both legs in a canter?

You can and it may be a good idea to do so if you have a horse that doesn't respond well to leg aids, or if you are just learning to ride the canter. Once you or the horse gets used to it you can usually get away with squeezing with just one leg, especially when going around a corner.
