    I ride english.. its been about 4 years i guess. Legs are very important in riding. If you kind of shift your buns to the L or R of the saddle and your inside shoulder's back with outside shoulder forward that's definitely a good way to do it. Reins don't do all that much. Not as much as people seem to think anyway. Slowing down a horse in posting trot is mainly leaning back more when posting and lightly pulling on the reins. When I first started I thought that reins were the only thing to steer and stop. Oh boy.

    THANKS SO MUCH BUTTERCUP!

    Never ridden English before here. But there is also a different way you can steer in Western, and I think it's the same as English. The way you described above is called Neck Reining. There is also Bit Reining where you pull right if you want to go right. That is in western and english I think.

    Good Luck!!
