   PATTERN AND PRECISION EQUAL PROGRESS

​                                            (1 DAY)

Riding Patterns with Precision is the ultimate key to training. I have used these same Patterns on all breeds of horses and all disciplines from Dressage and Eventing horses to cutters and trail riders and ranch riding horses.

Consistency and Precision are the keys to training and developing a horse. In this clinic you will learn how to ride various patterns with varying precision based on your horses development stage. 
It is through the use of these patterns that you will cause your horse to understand more solidly your aids. The patterns will help you have better seat control, help stop and turn without using your reins and have your horse maintain gait until you ask for another one. The patterns will help your horse move engaged both mentally and physically without having to use your reins all the time.
