Training Quote


" Do you use your reins to collect a horse? Not really. You might sit against them, but you don't pull backward with the reins..that's not quite right. You are always riding from the back of the horse to the front of the horse. So if you want to use your reins, you have to use your reins by pushing your back into them, pushing your back into your hands - don't pull your hands into your back."

- Catherine Haddad, from her training video presented by Dressage Training Online.
