Saddle seat is a type of English riding that involves a high-stepping horse, and the rider has his/her legs farther out in front than in most English saddles. Western is a type of riding where the saddle has a horn, and is deeper and more secure than an English saddle. Western riders do not jump.
How do you switch from riding horses English to riding Western?
Well it won't be as hard to switch to western riding as it would be to switch to english riding. I do both and you'll basically just have to adjust to a more dressage like posture in the saddle, keeping a lose rein, typically using just one hand, and even using more visible type cues. English riders tend to be more smooth in their movements while western riders tend to be quite visible when cueing. Also the saddle will give you a little more balance as it's not as hard to sit on a western saddle, but they tend to 'bounce' the rider around a bit also. Also be ready for a western horses show gaits as they will feel odd at first.
