Dressage, much more than
just learning to ride.
Dressage is a way of life!
Dressage is a lifelong study
of how to ride and train a horse to his highest
capabilities. It means training the horse in deportment,
response, balance, and athletic ability whereby he is able
to submit generously to the control of his rider.
It involves all aspects of
dealing with horses, including the psychology of their
behavior right up to an including training them at the
Grand Prix level. But it is much more than just that.
Dressage is a way of life, teaching the human partner about
dealing with the problems of life, and what is right and
wrong. |
