When you are cantering, it is important not to slouch forward into what I call the Frog Point. Sit up and listen to the beats 1, 2, 3. On the first beat Push your butt down. On the second beat, push your butt back.This will put your shoulders back too. On the third beat, rotate your pelvis in. It should help!

What is the correct way to mount a horse when using an English saddle?
1. Make sure the cinch is tightened enough so the saddle won't slide down when you try to mount 2. Stand to the left of the horse with your back to the horse's head 3. Place your left foot in the stirrup (make the stirrup longer if you can't easily reach it with your left foot) 4. Place your left hand at the front of the saddle, and your right at the back of the saddle 5. Push off from the ground with your right foot, and pull yourself up to the saddle 6. You're now standing in your left stirrup: swing your left leg over the horse's back and sit down gently

How can cantering be made easy on a horse?
try and go with the flow and sit deep in the saddle also try not to panic otherwise the horse will do the same although when i took my horse to the common he went into a flat down gallop twice! lucky me i did not fall off and managed to stop him but the second time i fell off but my horse thought i enjoyed it after that i was fine to canter it might just be if your riding a new horse you won't be used to his or her stride.
What is cantering?
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!
I am cantering how do i slow to a walk?
When you are cantering, you will want to pull back on the reins, and sit DEEP in your saddle. Some people do not understand what that means- well, to help you what you should do is push your weight down as hard as you can in the saddle, and lean back (but not too much).
Do you need to sit back a little when your cantering on a horse?
Only a little, move your seat to the 'cantle' at the back of the saddle and circle your pelvis so that you move smoothly with your horse. :)

Is it possible to stay in the sadle while cantering?
yes you can stay in the saddle while cantering with a little technique. You need to learn the rhythm of your horses canter since no horse gallops the same. You need to have your toes in the stirrups and almost kind of stand up each time the horses legs move forward and come back down in the saddle in kind of a rhythm with the horses canter. you might have sore thighs later, but the more you do this the more natural it becomes
