Learn about inhand training with dressage horses and discover the common mistakes that can lead to behavioural problems on the ground.
In this article, we show you a glimpse of a video from Jody’s online training program on the subject of inhand training with dressage horses.
She runs us through some of the common behavioural issues that can arise when you don’t have a clear language with your horse.
She mentions one of the most important rules with horses is that you don’t change the rules. You keep everything clear and black and white.
You get to decide the rules, but what ever you decide matters. So having one rule for one situation and changing it another, just confuses your horse.
A clear consistent language in your groundwork training with your dressage horse is vital for a happy and relaxed relationship with your horse.
Using the principles of Equitation Science as the basis of her teaching, she talks about the importance of park.

Here you will see a glimpse into Jody’s online program, where she runs through all the principles of horse training.
Learn how to create clear language with your horse and prevent those behavioural issues from developing on the ground.
