Your riding is great! Maybe a little far forward but the horse obviously has a strong head. You look great!

Looks great, but l would just put your knees and legs back JUST a LITTLE. and in the show ring, hold your head up high, like your riding the best horse in the world.

Looks pretty good. Can you take a little of the hollow out of your lower back? Try rocking a little of your weight back onto your seat as you post. I'd also like to see your shoulders a little more vertical. Perhaps practice the sitting and posting trots without stirrups. Just my .02 cents.

Your riding is great but you might want to pull your shoulders back square with your hips. That will make your arms stronger and help with having good control of the head.

Hey Corey. You really do look great. l love how stable ur legs r & how ur feet stay parallel to the horse. l see so much toeing out, that l am always so excited to see riders with good alignment. Your hands appear steady but soft. Watch ur right hand, u roll ur wrist inward. You may find it helpful to open up that wrist & get those thumbs on top. l assume by posting this you're interested on taking what u developed up to this point & tweaking it further. The one thing l would work on if l was you, would be to try to open ur hips slightly & roll them (again slightly) forward while keeping ur lower back soft. This will help ur entire posture come back, away from being slightly ahead of the vertical, will open ur chest more & bring ur shoulders back, & most importantly bring ur seat up under you. Bringing ur seat more up & under u would make ur position awesome. (Think riding on ur back pockets instead of on ur sitting bones - the adjustment is all in rolling or tilting the pelvis forward an increment or two). It will take a bit of adjustment & self-reminders until it becomes a habit. l am really not so great at explaining these things, so l hope this makes sense. You have nice form & do SO many things very well from what l can see. Most importantly, all technicality aside, u keep in synch with ur horse & have a nice natural rhythm. Bravo!

You look pretty good to me but there are a few things
-u have some very minimal movement(flicking) of ur ankles, easily fixed by practice
-u need to bend ur elbows more instead of extending them towards the horse is neck

overall,a great performance!

ADD* o yeah put ur shoulders back a lil more, just keep ur head up and that will fix that! ;)

good luck

Good:
1. Your leg position is excellent & very secure
2. You keep ur head up & look where u r going, u do not lean on the corners or tilt
3. You r in good rhythm with the trot
Needs work
1. Your arms r stiff & so ur hands move up & down with the movement - they should remain still relative to the pommel. Try riding with the reins in one hand & wave the the other about, keep changing hands, to loosen u up there
2. u r a little hollow in the back. This will make ur back sore if u ride for hours. Try lifting from ur stomach instead of ur shoulders

Hope this helps

Sit up and open your chest out
Relax your arms and bend your elbows
l looked at some of your other video is and when you jump push your butt to the back of your saddle more and push your hands futher up your horses neck also try and sit up quicker

Great riding :)

put a little more bend in your elbows and always make sure your thumbs are on top. this makes it harder for the horse to rip the reins out of your hands. your leg looks like it is a little tiny bit forward. it might be because you're trying to lean back so she does not pull you. but try sitting up more. that way your core is a lot stronger and she can not pull you forward.

you look good leaning a little forward, but all you have to do is move back your legs, if you look down at your knees and can see your toes then just move back your legs till u cant see your toes. Head high. Good job!

Sit up straight in the saddle. l do not know if you jump, but if you do, you still need to sit up straight when doing flat work. It is a lot easier to get your horse in a frame when your sitting up right instead of a half seat. Also, keep your thumbs up, they looked like they weren't. Other than that, l can think of anything else to tell you. Good job!

You did really well. Just try keeping your hands quiet when you post, l noticed your hands were a little jumpy and your arms were strait you want to have your elbows bent and keep them quiet. ( l always have trouble with that too). l loved how his head was set good. You are a really good rider. Awsome job. That is pretty much the only thing l can think of with your riding, your a natural. Keep up the treat work.

on the screen, when you're going right you are in the correct diagonal for posting, but when you start going left (from the view of the camera) you are on the wrong diagonal. you should be seated (during posting) on the same leg that is next to the railing, when it hits the ground you hit the saddle.
