Spinning Rio
 
One of the most important things in becoming a successful reiner is learlning how to ride well and I mean really well!! I can not emphasize this enough.  All of the movements expected of our horse are very advanced manouvers.  It is imperative to learn how to ride by the seat of our pants, literally.  A reining horse is not only guided by the reins on their neck, our seat, legs, back, upper body all come into play and timing is everything.

Be prepared to take the time that it's going to take.  Teaching a horse to spin, slide and do lead changes takes some know how and definitely some time and patience.   We teach every manouver one step at a time, literally.  A spin starts with one cross over step,  then you build on it.  The lead change starts with specific suppling exercies and so on.  Training takes on a slow progressive approach that is easy for the horse and rider to understand.
