  1. 1. Starting position: Sit tall and balanced in the saddle along the ear-shoulder-hip-heel alignment. Rest the balls of the feet on stirrups with heels slightly down, holding reins with gentle contact.
  2. 2. Execution: Follow the four-beat motion of the horse's back with relaxed hips and pelvis. Keep elbows soft and maintain steady posture as the horse walks.
  3. 3. Tips and safety: Always wear an approved equestrian helmet; breathe rhythmically and avoid clamping knees or tightening shoulders.
