reins, but no one can tell me how to actually do that when posting. I'd
love to hear any tips you have on that. >>

Dear Glenda--post slower than the horse is trotting, not a lot slower, just a
little--when I do this my horses have always slowed their trot to get me back
in rythym with them--I don't think they actually do this conciously. Once
they slow their trot a little, I slow my posting a little more, etc. This
method works in reverse too, i.e. post faster than the horse is trotting to
get him to speed up without using your legs--
