To ride sidesaddle, first, mount the horse from the left side, ensuring your saddle is properly positioned. Sit with your right leg over the saddle's high pommel and your left leg hanging down, using a stirrup on the left side. Maintain a balanced posture with your torso upright and your hands holding the reins. It's important to practice controlling the horse while adapting your riding techniques for the unique sidesaddle position.

There are several different straps on a sidesaddle. An English sidesaddle generally has a girth and possibly a breast collar. There is one stirrup leather. A western sidesaddle usually has a front and back girth/cinch, possibly a breast collar, and a single stirrup leather. Other straps might be attached to the saddle for other purposes, but those are the main attachments.
