Re: [RC] Canter Leads/from Trot - christabas I have noticed this same phenomenon with my horse. I don't beleive it is me, because on other horses I don't notice my legs one forward slgihtly and one back slightly, and switching diagonals is not so uncomfortable. So I am guessing that my horse is unbalanced, or one sided, and I am feeling it from him. I have only had him about a year and a half and he didn't even know what I was doing the first few times I posted on him! He was trained to do a slow western jog and have his rider sit the trot...it has taken a while to teach him to extend his trot and stay that way without reverting to the jog.
SO...I know he is one sided...what do I do about it?
