| Aspect | How to Achieve It | Cue for Self‑Check | |--------|-------------------|--------------------| | | Sit deep in the saddle, hips centered over the horse’s barrel. | Feel the saddle’s “hug” around your thighs. | | Legs | Light contact with the horse’s sides, heels down, toes pointing forward. | Your calves should be parallel to the ground. | | Hands | Keep elbows soft, reins with a gentle “half‑hand” contact. | There should be a slight “give” in the reins, not a tight pull. | | Head | Look where you want to go; keep neck aligned with spine. | Your chin should be parallel to the ground. | lena polanski riding
