Hunt Seat Equitation Patterns
Hunt Seat Equitation Patterns
Hunt seat equitation is an event that tests the rider’s ability – not the performance of the horse. Contestants work a predetermined pattern that includes changing gaits, backing up, figure 8’s, counter-cantering, and more. The FREE Hunt Seat Equitation Patterns e-book is a fantastic tool to help all levels of riders prepare for the show ring.
Many of the patterns in the Hunt Seat Equitation e-book have been featured at various AQHA shows. Download and peruse the 40 patterns included so you can better prepare for your next event.
