 Five New Training Videos for Your Viewing!


DebbieDebbie McDonald-USA

She and the now retired Brentina,  have had a long and outstanding career together. Together they've helped the US equestrian team win a team silver and team bronze at the World Equestrian games and a team bronze at the 2004 Olympics. In 2003, Brentina helped Debbie to become the first American rider to win the World Cup championship. They also came in third place at the 2005 World Cup. Brentina herself was named the 2005 Farnam/Platform USEF Horse of the Year.



New Video-Debbie talks about connection of leg to hand. Getting submission and response from your horse. The rider is shown how to make better use of her leg aid to get a better response. This is all about ensuring you get the reaction you want and being strict with your requests to create better harmony between horse and rider.

Watch Jose as he works with riders at any level helping them to train Systematically and Sympathetically.


New Video-
Jose explains contact and importance of movement in the elbow following the horses head. Harmony and elasticity are discussed and shown. What to do when your horse gets too quick....go on a smaller circle. When the horse wants to go on the forehand, Jose brings him down to a halt and does a few steps of reinback. Jose works on bettering the canter, getting more jump and expression. Discussion of what is \"on the bit\". Leg yield, shoulder fore, shoulder in. Introducing the turn on the haunches.

Shoulder in, haunches in, travere, half pass, bend. Using all of these Rafael shows that all these pieces need to be there before you can get a good half pass in the trot or canter. Travere. Rafael explains how you MUST be confident in what you are doing and where you are going, with purpose. Additionally, he uses travere to get the horse collected in the walk and then immediately ask for canter. He also emphasizes that you need to have steady contact in the outside rein when asking for canter. Nice viewing of aids Rafael wa. Working on Piaffe. Rafael says that you must think shoulder in after all movements to get softness and control back.
