When mounting your horse in an active arena with other riders, you should:
Ask somebody to hold your horse while you mount
Use a mounting block
On howrse, the answer is: Ask somebody to hold your horse while you mount Use a mounting block
You should pretend the other horses don't exist in the arena. Your horse should stay calm and collected. If your horse doesn't then it needs more ground work.
For Howrse riding level 5 its ask someone to hold your horse while you mount and use a mounting block
Try mounting outside of the arena, or mounting in a quiet area inside the arena where you are most likely not going to be in someone's way. It would be best if you had a friend to hold your horse. Ask that friend if he/she can give you a step up, or grab a mounting block and mount from there.
You could either: 1. Get on yourself if no-one is around to help you. 2. Ask someone for a leg-up. 3. If in the arena there is a mounting block, then use that.
Well if you're at a show and your horse kicks out sometimes you could tie a red ribbon on its tail to tell others STAY BACK!!!You could also mount in a corner away from others so you and your horse can get collected and together.

You should always have your horse held by someone else or have him loosley tied. This is for yours and your horses safety, aswell as any other riders in the arena. It doesn't matter how quiet your horse is, if something spooks him while you have one foot in the stirrup and no control over his head he could bolt, dragging you and putting the lives of everyone in the arena a risk. You should only ever loosely tie your horse if there is the possibility that he will pull back because when he pulls back he will meet with some restriction which should calm him down and give you enough time to either fully mount up of get off. If he pulls back harder again he will become free but by this time you will have full control over him either on his back or back on the fround calming him. The safest method is to have someone else hold your horse. Hope this has been helpful=)
Well ideally you would be riding a horse that you could easily mount from the ground if you needed to. But as the horse is too tall, then you should used a mounting block or a step stool. Also it is better for a horses back to mount from a mounting block as it helps to prevent back pain in the horse.
Not to deep so your horse doesnt fall through so round about 2 inches deep
