education Lets talk about HORSES with Jennifer Question Could you please describe the proper way to dis mount from a horse Answer There are several methods only one of which Is really safe Gather the reins in one hand so as to prevent foreword movement of the horse and release right foot from the stirrup Place left hand holding the reins on the pommel or horn of the saddle ana stand up in the left stirrup Swing body to right and slide right hand along saddle to grasp the rear or cantle of the saddle while the right leg swings slowly over the horses back By now you should be standing in the left stirrup facing the horse right holding the saddle fore and aft with your right leg hanging free beside the left foot If you re not In this position you re In trouble After taking stock of your position and checking balance transfer your weight to your arms your left foot from the stirrup ana slowly lower yourself to the ground still holding the reins There are differences of opinion about that last step of removing the left foot before sliding to the ground Many people keep the left foot in the stirrup while stepping to the ground This is a great way to land on your backside or even be dragged If the horse Is startled There is also the cute way of dismounting by throwing the right leg over the horses neck and slithering off From personal experience I can definitely not recommend It The first tune I tried It on a very round bareback mare I round my seat sliding off before I had the leg clear of the horse a neck It was a most un dignified scramble that got me on the ground
