Dressage involves drawing out the natural capabilities of the horse and shaping it into something beautiful and expressive. The horse must learn how to balance under the rider and move in elegant self-carriage.
When the rider has adopted a deep balanced seat then the time is right to start the first dressage steps that will lead to a disciplined and flexible horse.
Contents include:
