My goal is to make dressage understandable, accessible, and enjoyable for all horses and riders. My tools are explanations made in language that make it clear to the rider and exercises that make it clear to the horse. These lead to the movements and figures of competitive dressage. My guiding principles of training are:

• You have to make your horse soft from front to back before you can ride him forward from back to front or you will teach him pull.

• You have to make your horse supple before you can make him straight or you will make him stiff.

• You have to teach your horse to stretch correctly before he can learn to collect correctly or you make him short strided.

• You have to make your horse understand what you want before you can expect him do what you want or you will make him tense and resentful.
