Reeks: Horses
Anne-Katrin Hagen
- Dressage
- involves
- drawing
- out
- the
- natural
- capability
- of
- the
- horse
- and
- shaping
- it
- into
- something
- beautiful
- and
- expressive.
- The
- horse
- must
- learn
- how
- to
- balance
- under
- the
- rider
- and
- move
- in
- elegant
- self-carriage.
- When
- the
- rider
- has
- adopted
- a
- balanced
- seat,
- then
- the
- time
- is
- right
- to
- start
- the
- first
- dressage
- steps
- that
- will
- lead
- to
- a
- disciplined
- and
- flexible
- horse.
- The
- author
- describes
- lessons
- in
- serpentines,
- half
- halt,
- basic
- paces
- with
- lengthening
- and leg-yielding.
