Horse Training (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10) |
 | | The purpose of training is to develop the horse physically and mentally to enhance balance, strength, responsiveness, relaxation, performance, safety, and the stability required of carrying a rider in a natural and harmonious way. |
 | | This is a good time to begin training horses to help develop their bodies for future performance and teach them to correctly engage their minds. |
 | | Training the horse under saddle continues with establishing a correctly forward horse, responsive to seat and leg aids for turning, yeilding, and tranistions both up and down, as well as developing a good stretch into the bridle for back soundness, lightness to the bit, and solid control for any discipline. |
