Up down up down reminds, me.........

I run dude string in the summer, we mostly walk, but for some clients I will trot some.

I am constantly asked how I sit the trot, (western saddle) without bouncing around...
most of this I am asked by girls, so if there are no young kids around I tell them to pretend your riding your boyfriend, most of them get a big laugh out of it.

I had one girl ( who brouht her BF with her)who was flopping around like a sack of potatoes when she asked, she almost fell of her horse when I told her. They came back and rode again later in the season, and she rode rather well, during the ride when we were troting she informed me she been "practicing" and that I was right it did really help, lol.
