What you'll learn

  • Our aim is a finished well-made horse who follows our decisions but governs his own momentum by carrying.
  • This is crucial information that is too often glossed over and not routinely achieved in nations outside of Western Europe.
  • After this class, you'll have a clear understanding of 4 actions in riding per USA 1935 Section 1 4 Go; Carry-On; The Turn & Curved Lines; Halt and Half-Halt.
  • The 4 actions (and their effects) are 1. Carry-Go; 2. Carry-On; 3. The Turn & Curved Lines; 4. Halt and Half-Halt.

    How do the '4 Events' (Carry-Go, Carry-on, Carry-turn, and Halt/slow-down) fit in to the broad-scheme of the way-of-going ? 

    When riding is boiled down to it's most basic elements, we've got these '4 Events'. 

    There's some reading for you to do:  You'll read the instructions and descriptions of these 4 Events from 3 main 'Schools' of horsemanship.  There's a scanned copy of the texts (from my marked-up books) in the class resources if you don't own the entire library/reading list yourself already.

Requirements

  • The only actual pre-requisite is a love for horses and your own desire to train correctly: forwards & straight.
  • This class was first designed for experts and horse professionals but if you have a mind for horses and the right way-of-going that is the most important.

Description

In this class we take a close look at what really happens when a horse honestly and consistently 'carries himself' -- from the very start!

How do we TRAIN this ?

Overall --and in all disciplines -- we are always teaching the horse 1) to follow our decisions and 2) to govern his own momentum by CARRYING.

We teach him this CARRYING priority by his hindquarters because those hindquarter/hip joints are the strongest, largest bones in his body, and because this big bone structure is mobilized by the largest, strongest muscles.  Isolating the effort to the hindquarters of the horse keeps him sound. It also makes him more versatile, agile, adjustable, and comfortable to sit upon.

When we train with the carrying idea in HIS mind....namely his own discipline...his own "desire to advance the load"*...we end up with a really useful, rideable horse -- and also a really happy one.

We train 100% 'by the book'.  To that end, an horseman's reading list and Bibliography is provided.  The reason we adhere to this policy is because there is a lot of watered-down and merely- partially-right riding and training in the horseworld.  All on-line students and on-site riders are taught to verify items we discuss.  Riders check every doctrine that's trained;   and they themselves enforce the policy to ride 'by the book'.   The horses deserve this.

Off we go!


*quote from GYMNASIUM of the HORSE by Gustav Steinbrecht p. 71....which is the page that cites the renowned and beloved 2 Golden Rules of Riding:  "...Ride your horse forward and set him straight..."


1.  Carry GO Forward; 2.  Carry-On; 3.  The TURN and Curved-Lines; 4.  HALT & Half-Halt (i.e. Stop-Slow)
