Cantering is the gait in between a trot (one step up from a walk) and a gallop (the fastest). To an untrained eye, it would appear like a slower gallop. a canter is a speed that is in between a trot and a gallop. To get your horse to canter, go down to a sitting trot, trying to sit as much as you can to stay seated. Then you grab mane and kick with the OUTSIDE leg to pick up the right lead. If this doesn't work, maybe you need to get a crop... with a crop, gently tap your horse with the crop, but make sure not to smack. Have fun cantering!
