Basic tips for becoming great horse rider

Horses are one of the loveliest animals.  They are very mighty and energetic, but also graceful.  At first it might seem that riding horse doesn't ask much, but it's useful to know that riding is complex as any other sport.  It requires solid physical state and stimulates all formations of muscles on your physics.  On other hand, this activeness gives you bigger inner strength– the certainty that you are competent to be charge of such a potent animal gives you exceptional feeling of happiness and authority and later – the feeling of tranquillity.

Still, riding is not a thing that may be learned momentary; you need to learn principally how to beat the horse's inner curiosity in order to stay authoritative.  This may not be understood just by apperceiving the theory but few fundamental tips may make the procedure much simple, same as the horse games.

Primary, fundamental step is to have exact position.  The rider must sit with a tall straight back.  Heels should be constantly down.  This makes you safer and protects your foot from being entangled in the stirrup.  You should stay abreast the horse, only being near the reins and expecting every of his acts.  The reins should be hold in both hands - among the little finger and the ring finger and out the top among the thumb and index finger with a loose fit.

To influence the horse to move onward, the rider needs to hold his legs against the horse's sides and lower the reins.  Whistling or clicking could also help once in a while.

Riding also requests turning.  To make a horse turn right, for example, you have to pull back on the right rein and lower the hold on the left.  Thing that also works is to put give strength on the horse's right side with the right leg, while bringing the left leg back.  Invert these signals if you like to turn left.

To stop the horse stop, press his seat down.  You have to lean onward, while you're pulling back smoothly on the reins.

Trot is a element that every horse rider would appreciate to know.  For this you have to sit upright.  Shoulders need to be back, head up and eyes onward.  Hold the reins firm and leave proportionately space so horse may position his head. Start walking, then hold your leg from the thigh down, releasing the strength and loosening the reins.

Cantering means faster gait than trotting.  When the horse is in a constant trot, bring his outside left leg back, squeezing hard on his side.  Sitting deep into the saddle, and bringing the seat onward, while also putting some strength on the inside rein have to signal to the horse that it's time to canter.

If you ride for the first time, maybe you have to get a teacher, to avoid learning all the positions improperly.

Who do you think has been the best rider, horse and horse and rider combination this year?

So, this is just a random question, but who do you think has been the;

best rider of 2009?
best horse of 2009?
and best horse and rider combination of 2009?

and why??
mainly well known riders, like ollie townsend, pippa funnel, mary king, or horses like moorland totilas. or if you think someone you know has been amazing this year just say :D

Well I mean, you're going to get a lot of different answers...
So i would narrow it down to famous riders, horses, teams....or local ones.
Or ones from AQHA, APHA, NSBA, etc.

Horseback Rider: your link is malformed...

Okay, I'm just gonna do some random people and horses :P

Best Rider of 2009- I'm going to have to say my sister...She went from a lot of local shows to big AQHA shows winning many circuit champs and getting 5th in the NY 15-18 Eq at the AQHA Congress. Not to mention many year end titles. Her name is Danielle Jones horse-I'm An American Idol
Here are some of her year end awards.

Best horse of 2009-Definitely No Doubt I'm Lazy.
This website says it all.

http://www.nodoubtimlazy.net/index.html

He's still young, yet has ten more titles than most horses do.

http://www.nodoubtimlazy.net/showresults.html

You can look at his videos on the left side and just see how good his movement is. He's not like the typical crippled western pleasure horse that you just want to slap on the rump to get going faster. He has slow legs and a great topline, but is actually moving somewhere. I've also heard that he's really great to handle even though he's a young stud.
And he does great even when he has different riders on him so as you can see, it's not the rider, it's the horse that's great.

The best horse and rider combination of 2009-I'd have to say Ali Papendick and Harley D Zip. The horse is one of the best all-around horses I've seen, but Ali just adds to the greatness.

Harley D Zip won these classes at the Worlds
World Champion Senior Western Riding
World Champion Amateur Western Riding

And these at the Congress
Congress Champion Senior Western Riding
NSBA Congress Champion Senior Western Riding
Congress Champion 15 - 18 Western Riding
NSBA Congress Champion 15 - 18 Western Riding
Congress Champion Select Western Riding
NSBA Congress Champion Select Western Riding
Reserve Congress Champion 15 - 18 Horsemanship

Where Ali was riding him most of the time (except in the Amatuer classes).

In my opinion, I don't understand how the horse can freaking see two feet in front of him with that huge forelock he has!!(;
