A lot of riders don’t have a structured plan and don’t know how to solve certain problems.
But they miss a system. A system with clear steps and a guideline to help get to the next level.
After 50+ years of training horses and riders of all levels and having had the privilege of learning from the best trainers of that time, I’ve developed a clear step-by-step system.
When you understand this system, it becomes much easier to find out what you need to work on. And why.
Do you recognize yourself in one of the following situations?
You know that flashy front leg with the hollow back isn’t something to strive for.
But not sure how to achieve expressive movements correctly?
With my training program I show you what steps you need to take to achieve the highest level in a friendly way.
And, no, riding in a friendly way doesn’t mean it’s all butterflies and giving your horse treats to perform well.
Instead, it means:
…focusing on the balance instead of the frame;
…giving your horse the time to get stronger;
…being clear in your communication; and
… only asking what he’s mentally and physically capable of.
In my training program I have seen many horses go through major changes in a short time.
Is your horse next?
I’ve been part of the Dutch dressage team, have trained and competed dozens of horses on Grand Prix Level and I’ve been the National Team Coach for countries like the Netherlands and Finland.
Even after being a rider and trainer for so many years, I’m still very passionate about riding and teaching.
I’ve been teaching many riders from all over the world and I’m on a mission to make sure the fundamental principles of dressage don’t get lost.
You will receive lifelong access to my program on how to train your horse to the highest level in a friendly and logical manner.
You’ll get access to:
During the live Q&A sessions that we organize.
With useful tips and exercises, consisting of 117(!) pages.
What are the pitfalls at Medium Levels? What is the best way to prepare your horse? You also get a digital Work book.
Get tips to get a solid connection throughout the entire training.
Improve the fitness of your horse with daily, fun exercises with rehabilitation expert and veterinarian Morgan Lashley.
Sports psychologist Rico Schuijers will help you improve your focus in 4 steps.
The foundation of my Training Program is based on classical principles.
"Rien explains how to ride the whole horse and not only the neck, in a very simple way, because he divides everything into small steps..."
Francesca Newman
"Rien has an incredible depth of knowledge and understanding of the horse's psychological and emotional world with a great respect for the rider..."
Jane Karol
"It's really great for people to have the ability to see and experience what it should be like. Developing your eye for what is good and what is not..."
Kristen Schwaegerle
"The dressage world needs this system, this method. It's not a quickfix, it takes time to develop a horse. But this system works for every horse..."
Cindy Ishoy
''With the online course you'll be able to break the whole dressage riding down into segments. And then you understand where it's all heading to..."
Alison Banbury
''I really enjoyed Rien's program, it's the kind of thing that I keep going back to, over and over again. Whenever I have a question and I want to make sure that I'm on the right track, I go back to the training...''

"This method is suitable for all horses, regardless of breed and level."

We now have so many success stories in the online platform that I dare to say that you can make a lot of progress through this training.
Don’t underestimate the value of watching the training videos and answering all the questions in the workbook.
You are challenged to think about aspects of your training that you may have never thought about before.
And if you get stuck, you can participate in the live Q&As and ask questions or even submit videos.
Moreover, we also have a very loyal Community that supports and helps each other.
We’ve got riders and horses of all levels.
However, to get the most out of this training, it will be useful if you have experience with the basic principles. As the fundamentals are crucial if you aim to increase your horse’s level in the correct way.
Big chance it does. Rien’s method respects the way in which horses learn and it’s developed in a way that your horse’s body will become stronger over time. He has been training horses for over 45 years and he’s never encountered a horse on which his method didn’t work.
However, not all horses have the same level of talent, so sometimes it can take longer for one horse than for the other to improve his level. But Rien says that every horse can give you a good feeling and it doesn’t matter how much talent he has.
Rather, the training method will not suit every rider. If you especially want to ride your horse low, deep and round or with a draw rein and you are looking for a ‘quick trick’ to solve a problem, then this online training and training method is not for you.
Any doubts? We’re always more than happy to help you out! You can either join the Live Q&A’s with Rien or email us at info@dressagepro.com
The heroes on our support team are ready to help you.
