'First of all, the rider’s position is paramount. There should be a vertical line from the ear to the hip and down to the heel. Another line should extend from the elbow through the hands and on to the horse’s mouth. This position doesn’t change (although the rein and stirrup length might), whether you’re riding western, English or dressage.'
I love this!
