1. BACK UP

2. SHOULDER YIELD, which result in the horse or mule having to switch from looking at you with one eye, to the other

3. WALK, TROT, LOPE IN A CIRCLE

4. YIELD HINDQUARTERS, stepping under the belly, in front of the pivoting leg

5. STOP. COME IN, STAND AT YOUR SIDE, DROP HEAD

6. STAND STILL

A "hole" in any of these steps can indicate a potential problem on the trail or performance ride. Take a few minutes before each ride to make sure each step is soft and fluid. Only when each step can be accomplished softly, fluidly, is your horse or mule not only ready to ride, but also ready to excel, to be a pleasure in any situation!


If you don't get their attention,
you are stealing a ride!
