Premium Dressage Equestrian Training Videos
Happy horses perform best and if we don’t keep them safe there is no performance. Any horse owner will benefit from watching these videos, however, I especially designed them for people who are interested in helping out their trainer in return for riding opportunities. Many trainers need extra help, but do not have time to train people up to the standards of care necessary.
These videos do not give you the experience, which you will need. These videos do give you the knowledge to go into many situations with some understanding of the trainer and horse’s needs and will help prevent overwhelm.
“I have attended/watched several of the Carousel Coaching webinars and training videos – they are outstanding.“
