Horse Training Basics in Cowichan Bay, British Columbia

Did you know that horses are not made to carry weight?
Giving a horse a thorough foundation, in the traditional way, is more than shaping behaviors or putting on miles.

Training, or "dressage" in the equestrian sense, means physical training and development.
To train horses in this way takes a feeling for correct biomechanics.
To train effectively takes an understanding and application of the principles, in a way which produces the desired results on every kind of horse, no matter what the discipline. Athleticism is athleticism; agreeableness, enjoyment and obedience is the bi product of good training.

In traditional training, the development of the horse and rider takes place step by step, using centuries old tried, tested, and true techniques, movements, patterns, and principles.
Sound Basics = sound, capable horses who carry themselves in balance.

The Training Scales:

1.Relaxation/Rhythm
