Question: I am a catch rider and I got to ride this really fancy horse today, he has this thing though, to where on his up transistions he doesnt engage his hind-quarters unless you ask him to well on my First up transistion he seemed to like almost rear(but he didnt) he just took that first step with a lot of power and then was fine, my trainer said to hold(but dont pull) with my hands and then ask him to go with my legs. I did and he did a very active(perfect) up transistion. How does this work. If I hold with the reins what does that do and can you explain the mechanics of this, how everything works and comes into play. Thanks in Advance! 
My trainer said to apply pressure to his mouth for a second and then holding the pressure squeeze with my legs...
oh hahaha okay i completly get it now (duh) lol by holding him i and asking with my legs i am asking him to move into a frame while doing an up transistion which allows him hind quarters to get engaged and that makes him move forward from his hind-quarters and now jump forward from his forehand...
