0:00:18 > 0:00:19# Let's go! #
0:00:24 > 0:00:27- I'm Ava.- And I'm Dylan.
0:00:27 > 0:00:30And today we're going on a Western riding adventure.
0:00:30 > 0:00:31I'm going to be a cowgirl.
0:00:31 > 0:00:33I'm going to be a cowboy.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35BOTH: Let's go!
0:00:37 > 0:00:39HORSE NEIGHS
0:00:39 > 0:00:42Steph knows all about horses and ponies,
0:00:42 > 0:00:44so we're in really good hands.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49- Hey, how are you? - Really excited about today!
0:00:49 > 0:00:51So, here are your saddles.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54- Why do we need saddles? - The saddles keep you nice and comfy.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57You'll be riding for a long time. This is where you sit.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00The fenders protect the horse's sides.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02These stirrups are for your feet.
0:01:02 > 0:01:06- Shall we meet your ponies? - BOTH: Yes.- They're this way.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09These are your ponies. This is Tilly, this is Honey.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12- Now we're going to have to groom them.- What's that?
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Grooming is where we brush the horse's hair and body
0:01:15 > 0:01:17to get the dirt off,
0:01:17 > 0:01:20so if you pop your helmets on and then we'll get started.
0:01:20 > 0:01:25So, when you brush a pony, you brush in nice, firm strokes. That's it.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27We're getting all the dirt off
0:01:27 > 0:01:31so when the saddle is on, it doesn't rub her back. That's it.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35Now that the ponies have been groomed,
0:01:35 > 0:01:38we have to get them ready for us to sit on.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40This is called tacking up.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43We put the saddles on the ponies.
0:01:43 > 0:01:44And then the bridles.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47And Honey's ready to go.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Jump, and swing your leg over.
0:01:56 > 0:01:57Good job!
0:01:57 > 0:01:59We're ready to ride our ponies.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04Tammy and Ray will show you how it's done. Have fun.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06OK. Hi, guys.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09So, first thing we're going to do is walk forward.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Give them a little nudge with your legs on their tummy,
0:02:12 > 0:02:13and say walk on.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15- Walk on.- Very good.
0:02:15 > 0:02:16Walk on.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22That's it. Little nudge with your legs. Well done.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29OK. So, to make your ponies stop, you're going to lean backwards,
0:02:29 > 0:02:31push your heels down, and say whoa!
0:02:31 > 0:02:33- OK? BOTH:- Whoa.
0:02:34 > 0:02:35Good job.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38Now we know how to stop and start the ponies,
0:02:38 > 0:02:40we need to know how to steer.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42So, to get our ponies to turn to the right,
0:02:42 > 0:02:45you open your right hand out to the side with the rein
0:02:45 > 0:02:48so that you turn your pony's nose to the right.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52And give them a little squeeze with your left leg.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55When we want our ponies to turn left, we do the opposite.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57- Let's give it a go.- Walk on.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03So, we're going to open our right hand and leg out to the side.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05That's it.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10We led them in and out of cones.
0:03:15 > 0:03:20- Let's see if we can go backwards. How does that sound?- Good.- Good.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22We lean backwards slightly,
0:03:22 > 0:03:25and push our feet forward like when we stopped.
0:03:25 > 0:03:29We take a little pull on our reins, and say "back" to your ponies.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Then we make a clicky noise like... SHE CLICKS
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Can you do it, make that noise?
0:03:33 > 0:03:35BOTH CLICK That's it.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37SHE CLICKS That's it, keep clicking.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39SHE CLICKS
0:03:39 > 0:03:41HE CLICKS
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- That's it, and then tell her to whoa, Dylan.- Whoa.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Good.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48WILD WEST MUSIC PLAYS
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Good girl, Tilly.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Good girl, Honey.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16- BOTH:- Yee-hah! Yee-hah!
0:04:16 > 0:04:19You can be part of The Let's Go Club too!
0:04:19 > 0:04:22Grab a grown-up and head to the CBeebies website.
