First you have to put yourself in a two point postion. Back straight, inside reins up outside reins taught, with the horses head pointing to the outside. Your inside leg should be by the girth your outside leg behind it. Tell your horse you're planning to canter then nudge him three times to get him to go, he'll probably start with a trot nudge again til he canters. You'll know the whole beat changes.


How do you get a horse to listen to your commands?

Some horses respond better with voice or leg. If leg then to get them to walk, give them a nudge and trot, another nudge. Canter, put your outside leg back and inside leg slightly forward and squeeze hard. If they don't respond then give them a harder nudge or a little tap with the crop / whip. If voice then tell them to walk, tell them to trot, canter and so on. Saying it in a calm, clear voice would be ideal. Hope this helped!
