To dismount from the left ('near'), remove your feet from the stirrups.
Put the reins and whip in the left hand. Put your left hand on the
horse’s neck, and lean forward. Put your right hand on the front arch of
the
saddle. Swing your right leg back and clear over horse’s back, allowing
both feet to slip to the ground. You should land lightly, bending your
knees and
avoiding the horse’s forelegs. Then with your right
hand take hold of the reins a short distance from bit.
