MEDIUM TO ADVANCED
Specific training plans for recreational and competition riders enhancing their ability to train their horses.
Every aspect of educating a horse, regardless of age, is covered by my training sessions.
Whether you practise dressage, hack or show jumping, your horse improves through a better understanding of the dialogue between you, resulting in greater skills and confidence in your work together
THE AIDS BY FEEL, NOT FORCE
We use a variety of riding techniques, step by step, to avoid the use of forceful and cruel techniques. My riding is close to classic horseback riding. Dressage is more about the awareness of your own body and feelings, through this to understand your horses body, how they are moving and how they are feeling, how best to apply the exercises to benefit the horse physically and mentally. We want a healthy horse, body and soul. Dressage should enhance your horse, so they feel more comfortable riding day after day. Horseback riding is more than just sitting on a horse, it is a relationship, a partnership, it’s a commitment to ensure your partner is the healthiest they can be. The goal of dressage is to apply the most suitable exercise at all times, not just execute a series of random movements. It is to evaluate which exercise is recommended, to know when to apply one technique or another, one exercise or another. It is to learn the importance of a good warm up, stretch etc, it is to learn to utilise this knowledge in favour of the horse, not just ourselves.
ENJOYING YOUR HORSE YOU CAN IMPROVE YOUR KNOWLEDGE.
Dressage is feeling, and sport. A fabulous feeling with an incredible partner.
