Roger Gets It Right! You Can Too!

Good morning this is Will Faerber from Art2Ride and I am here giving a clinic just outside Cleveland, Ohio. Today I wanted to introduce you to Roger.

Roger has come all the way from Washington D.C. to work with us today. He has been working completely on his own after getting his horse about a year and a half ago. He has been watching our videos and putting what he views into practice with this horse. I wanted to show you all how lovely this horse is now going.

Roger started with four months in a chambon and did nothing but getting him to stretch and work over his back. When Roger first got him, he said he looked more like a haflinger pony. Now he is getting him to stretch all on his own without the chambon.

This is the first time I’ve seen this horse, but I just wanted to show you all someone working all on their own and applying the principles of correct classical dressage. Just by watching our videos as a guide, he has been able to get this horse moving beautifully all on his own. If Roger can do it, so can you! Keep up the hard work! Great job Roger!!!

Join me as I post weekly blogs covering many topics relating to Classical Foundation Training. I have intentionally left out the word "dressage" because many people have a negative association with the prevalent "crank and spank" approach or that it is a sport for only those who are afraid to jump.

Dressage as it is meant to be is an understanding of how to best optimize a horse's movement and ability to carry a rider, surely a benefit for any horse, any discipline. It is also important in maintaining your horse's safety, soundness and sanity.
