De-complicating Dressage

In this episode we are back to our training episodes and what better way to start the 2021 training episodes than with the infamous inside leg to outside rein connection. We talk all about what the inside leg to outside rein connection is, why it’s important and how to achieve this with your horse. Adding this into your training can lead to you having far more control over your horses body, your shape and size of your circles and your positioning in lateral movements.
