Instruction

1. That the horse could sit down, at first teach her to lay down. It is rather difficult process, it demands a lot of time and boundless patience. If you not the professional coach, do not try to lay an animal alone. Be careful, otherwise you can do harm and horses and yourself. Before similar training surely consult with experts.

2. Gain the maximum trust of an animal. You have to achieve full mutual understanding to control a horse and to feel with her confidence in any situation. It can suddenly jump when lays down, having struck with hooves or having stepped on you. You do not force an event: there can pass years until the horse allows you to touch any part of her body. You will feel when the animal works with desire.

3. Observe how the horse lays down and rises on freedom or in the stable. Focus attention on how it moves to these moments front and hind legs. Then you will be able to use each trifle at a training.

4. Approach quietly a horse while she lies, trifle slightly a mane, sit down on a croup (if you are able). Achieve that the horse did not jump at your emergence, and on the contrary calmed down. If she did not jump and did not escape, so affairs go well.

5. Now try to train a horse to sit. Ask an animal to rise. At the same time the horse at first will straighten front legs. Here your task is to try to leave her in this situation. Give to a horse sugar, carrot or other delicacy. She so can remain to sit and get used to this "trick" and to your sit team, and there will be in a sitting position long time. Surely every time encourage it. If the horse after all rose to the feet with delicacy, continue training, seizing the similar moments.
