If you type "how to lunge horse" to google, several web sites with instructions come up, e.g. http://www.wikihow.com/Lunge-a-Horse. Some Youtube videos may give you some ideas as well (watch out for the bad videos). Is the horse that you are trying to lunge new to lunging as well? If you are both new, then it gets a little bit more challenging. On the other hand, if you have a horse that has been lunged before, it is easier for you to get started.

he's got a rugburn/sore on his withers and i want to give it a break to heal up. i've got 2 pads there too but for some reason the saddle seems tipped forward too much. anyways i'd like to lunge him so he can get some exercise and i can keep working with him, without aggravating the sore.
fyi i tried it and discovered he has a very pointy spine!! he is a TB and pretty bouncy. but i stayed on and i'm just proud to be able to say that much
