I ride english and braid... but it might have some of ther same principles. try getting the mane wet (w/ water) and keeping an even spacing :)

I think that it can be very easy to do. Just it takes time and make sure when you are done banding it lays flat. My first time it popped all back up and it looked horrible. But just take a comb and some bands. Start and the bottom of the mane (where the shoulders are) and work your way up. Make sure you dont forget to band the forelock in one band too

*EDIT* omg is my face red, I thought you said braiding..
But since it is the same spacing , I won't delete this, perhaps they can be of some help :o
If no one at your barn can help to show you how
There are videos now, tbey can be a great help!
You may also find a tutorial on line.....
