Member Emmy: 'He now responds well to my leg aid and moves less behind the vertical. Because he moves better, my own seat has also improved a lot.'
Member Deborah: 'She is a sensitive mare and so much more relaxed now.'

This is what you'll get:

This is what you'll get:

Step #01 Find your horse's natural balance

First we are going to help you to improve the left-right balance (‘straightness’) of the horse, with the consequence that the horse gets equal in the hand. This means that the horse is also more willing to accept the softer rein. This is very important, because when your horse distributes his weight over his four legs, the risk of getting injuries will be lower.

Step #02 Finding the 3 Basic Principles

In this part, ‘First Movements for Collection’, we continue with influencing the front – hind balance of your horse. In other words, making sure the hindquarters start carrying more weight and getting the weight off the front legs. We give you exercises to help your horse towards the optimal balance and let you focus on influencing balance rather than influencing the posture.

Step #03 Get forwardness without tension

There are several exercises that you can use to improve the balance of your horse. Rien explains which exercises these are and when to use them. As a result, the haunches will get a carrying function instead of pushing. It’s very important that you get a good idea of which aids you need to give for which exercise, so we give you a system of aids.

Step #04 How to ride with a Contact Rein

Then Rien will tell you everything you need to know about tranisitions and changes of speed. You can adjust the transitions to the level of the horse that you’re riding. It’s important that you ride them in the correct manner, because if you don’t… the exercise has no purpose and won’t benefit your horse. In other words, you have to do it right for a positive influence on the balance of your horse.

Step #05 How to get a Circle of Energy

The result of step #01 till #04 is that your horse will have more collection, more freedom in the shoulder and the hindquarters will be able to carry more weight. To train your horse even further in this you can use the halbe tritte. Rien explains step by step how you can start with this exercise and what you should pay attention to.

Meet your trainer: Rien van der Schaft

Improve your horse’s body in harmony with your horse. In my opinion that is what classical training is all about. 

Ride the energy into your hand instead of controlling it with your hand and use the right exercises to improve the balance of your horse. 

As a trainer, national team coach of the Finnish dressage team and with this online course I hope to make it possible for every rider and every horse to enjoy dressage in a logical and friendly way.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here you'll find the most frequent questions and answers. Do you have another question? Let us know in the chat below!

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 then happy to help you out! You can either join the Live Q&A’s with Rien or email us at info@dressagepro.com

Nope, you can pay in 1 installment and you’ll get unlimited access.
