Great tip for helping to reduce rigidness! I’ve found that being relaxed helps me follow through with the motion (particularly my hip flexors http://thejodhpurscompany.com/blogs/the-jodhpurs-company-blog/19194671-how-to-canter-like-a-pro-in-five-steps ).

I have been wondering if troting a lot might make it harder to sit the canter? and I heard that a sitting trot is easier to make the transition from trot to canter and thanks for the artical

I cantered a lot without stirrups or rode bareback and that helped a lot!

Great advice. I always seem to end up in 2 point. It’s more comfortable than a bouncy canter!

How about sitting to a bonejaring trot??
Good tips.

These are great tips! I constantly bounce around in the saddle at the canter, and sometimes I even have to two-point! I will defenitely use these tips at my next riding lesson!
