advice

Can anyone help me on riding horses? Like what do I do to make him walk, trot or anything else? How do I stop him? I need answers in the next 1 and a half hours or so. I rate 5's for decent answers. HELP!!!

Well heres something i found for you on the internet.

So finally, your horse is handed to you, and you are about to ride for the first time. Approaching and handling your mount should be done as described above, in a calm and respectful manner, The reins should not touch the ground (the horse could walk on them and break them) and they should be held as follows: one hand should be holding both reins below the bit, while the other one should hold the end of the reins. Most horses are trained to be mounted on the left side, so as a precaution, it is better to always mount them on that side.

Before putting your foot in the stirrup, you need to make sure the girth is tight enough. If not, the saddle can flip around the horse's body and end up under their belly. A pretty funny situation indeed, but rarely when it happens to you. Like everything else in horseback riding, mounting the horse should be done calmly and slowly.

In English riding, the rein should be adjusted when you mount, to prevent the horse from stepping forward. In Western riding a hand is kept on otherwise loose reins, but their horses as usually somewhat better trained at standing at attention. Excessive agitation, speaking loudly and squeezing the horse at the side should be avoided.

Talking to your horse in a soothing voice and relaxing your whole body will make this a better experience for both the horse and rider."
