[RC] Walking fast - wdj777

  Hi, when I want my horse to walk faster, I walk with him.
I  just exaggerate his walk step by step with my thigh moving a little bit foward as he puts a front leg foward  & turning my waist slightly. Then as soon as he goes at the pace I want I stop walking with him. He has learned to keep a fast pace at a walk from me using this method. Also when I want to stop, I quit riding, meaning plop my butt into the saddle & don't move with him, slows him down, and he knows that means whoa! (Easist way I can explain it. ;)
