Stop your cues and aids for piaffe and ask for "and whoa" - or however you ask. I add the "and" to signify a downward transition. You can ask for an extension when you get stuck, or you stop having suspension, and to make the horse think "forward" again. Disclaimer - this advice is coming from me, Deirdre, not from the professional, Matt McLaughlin, in the video. But this is my understanding of it and how I work on piaffe with my horses.
echt toll gemacht..!! durch das vid kann mien pferd das jeze auch und ich geh mit dem A-dr, echt super klasse.. was manche hier erzählen ist reiner schwachsinn.. die pferde werden dafür gezüchtet und ihnen macht es spaß sonnst würden sie ganz anders reagieren.. ich hatte eine reitbeteildigung auf mnem die hat 5cm. sporen in dem rungestochert und den mit ner gerte verprügelt..!! das ich danach das pferd noch mal neu anfangen musste zu downen war mir dann kla..!! alles is jez wieder klasse..
Que chulada!! Very nice training, amazing to see such steadfast progress in such a short term. How much would it cost to have a horse trained in dressage by this talent man?
The whip touches her maybe 4 times during the entire thing - difficult to tell from a 2 dimensional point of view, but I can assure you that's how it was.
@battlingtheodds - remember that the horses ears point to what they are paying attention to.. say.. the trainer here.Not all ears back are actually pinned.. and of course there will be a subtle amount of crankiness whenever you are teaching difficult maneuvers to any horse. this horse & trainer are doing a great job.. the equipment is always only as harsh as the hands it is in. Good job w/the piaffe training! Just my $0.02.. lol
@battlingtheodds Ears back and erect mean she's alert to what her trainer is doing. If the ears were DOWN, she'd be angry and her movements would be more dramatic.
Diese Lektionen sind den natürlichen Bewegungen des Pferdes entnommen. Die Grundlage deiser Reitlehre ist das es den Pferden Spaß machen soll. wenn dies ncht der Fall ist wird ein Pferd auch nicht dazu gezwungen. Hier sieht man ein Pferd im beginn der arbeit mit piaffe usw. es ist losgelassen, konzentriert und ist versammelt. zeigt also die grundlagen die dafür nötig sind. an den losen zügel kann man das auch erkennen, denn ansonsten würde das pferd versuchen nach vorne auszuweichen
Rhytm and forwardness is always the most important thing in any exercise, even more in its beginning! Why are the classical principles of educating of the horses so neglected nowadays...? :(
Das mit dem Einsatz der Gerte ist schon ok. Die Hilfen müssen dem Pferd ja ersteinmal beigebracht werden und mit Antippen der Gerte ist das üblich. Wenn das Pferd am recht am Anfang des Trainings ist ist es auch normal das es aus dem Tackt kommt.
Was mir nur überhaupt nicht gefällt ist, dass das Pferd die ganze Zeit die Zähne zeigt!!!
wow she is gorgeous! i have done reining and western pleasure,natural showmanship and halter classes,and i am thinking of also learning dressage with my instructor aswell...but great job she is doing great!
hi i love ur horse shes beautifull and has alot of tallent but i was wandering if u would no if it is okay if ur horse kicks out as a response to the dressage whip in piaffe training?
It is so nice to se a correct piaffe, when there are so many wrong ones showed here on youtube. The rhythm was so beautiful, it just made me smile and gives me much hope that there IS such a thing as good riding!
wenn man das ganze langsam angeht, pausen macht, ihr zeit lässt und sie ausgiebig lobt, sehe ich hier einen schönen piaffe nichts im weg stehen! ich denke der trainer weiß was er macht!
da kann ich meinem vorredner nur zustimmen. das sieht ja schrecklich aus. das pferd hat panik und weiß nicht wohin. das ist erzwungen. das hat mit einer schönen piaffe nichts zu tun :(
das pferd ist total verspannt ,läuft ohne rücken und hat wirklich keinen spass daran .alleine das offene maul und das nervöse gekaue stellt schon dar,dass dem pferd unwohl ist.die piaffe ist überhaupt viel zu hecktisch nicht diagonal und ohne lastaufnahme.das ist nicht harmonisch.
ohne peitsche geht da auch gar nichts.
geh doch bitte zu einem qualifizierten reitlehrer und mach das richtig
Wow amazing - What exctly are the aids for Piffe and Passage I know it takes a certain type of horse to get to this level and would love to know the exact aids to try and establish that movement if the right one come along. Thanks
sieht zwar gut aus ich finde es aber besser wenn das pferd werder trense noch sattel aufhat und es dann auf komando macht sonst finde ich gehört es fast zu quälerei! bei euch ist es zwar nicht so schliomm wie bei anderen aber naja!
Wunderschön! Sehr konzentrierte Arbeit, toll! Ich versuche mich aktuell bei meinem Isländer an der Piaffe und hoffe, eines Tages klappt das bei uns auch. Bei euch schaut das wirklich schon richtig toll aus, besonders die Passage! Zum Hinschmelzen...
diese pferde tun mir so leid! warum dürfen sie nicht einfach pferd sein? warum wollt ihjr sie auf etwas hintrainierne? damit ihr zeigen könnt wie toll ihr seid?? glaubt ihr das is es was ein pferd mag?? wohl eher nicht... warum lasst ihr sie nicht einfach in ruh mit sowas? dnen macht das ja auch keinen spaß!!
ja in euren augen ist es korrekte dressur... glaubt ihr dass das pferd auch so denkt? das pferd ist ja keine maschine sondern ein lebewesen das auch einfach das machen will was ihm spa´macht...
@camelotandalusians nein ist es nicht das pferd ist einfach nur verspannt, durchgedrückter rücken... das hat rein gar nichts mit dressur zu tun! noch dazu scheint es angst vor dem mann zu haben - ja sehr schön:) *rollingeyes*
und ein dressurreiter hat auch nicht so im sattel rumzuhoppsen;)
@camelotandalusians stimmt ,da haben sie recht! Aber man sieht ,dass das Pferd an viele Stellen einfach überfordert wird und unter Streß steht.Und das denke ich gehört nicht mal zur korrekten Dressur.
Smile wenn ich mir dein Reitvideo angucke kann ich dir nur raten,deine Zeit dringenst in guten Reitunterricht zu investieren,anstatt unqualifizierte Kommentare mit deinem Halbwissen zu verteilen.Das Pferd wird hier korrekt gearbeitet.Dressurarbeit wie man sie leider zu seltensieht!
Deine videos sind peinlich und unterbelichtet. Diese Person kann wenigstens was und ist in der Lage, seinen Tieren was ohne Qual und Stress beizubringen. In deinen Videos sieht man wie du dich ständig verkrampfst. an den Zügeln zerrst, das Pferd falsch an die Hilfen stellst... Ich glaube diese Reiter von dem Schimmel können definitiv mehr und Pferden macht es Spaß herausgefordert zu werden und etwas neues zu lernen! Bevor du andre verurteilst denk über dich nach!
erstmal muss dein pferd nur hinten die beine abwechselnd heben
das fäng alls gaaanz langsam an .
dann muss es lernen sie immer in einem kleineren abstand zu heben. (es darf halt auch nicht auskeilen) was es ja auch nicht kann wenn es sofort das andere haben muss und irgendwann nimmst du dann die vorderbeine dazu . oder machst es im schritt wo es eh alle anheben muss . das verlangsamst du dann den schritt und willst dann die aktivität der beine haben :)
Such natural animated movement, especially at 3:05-3:10. Lovely to watch! Great training, it's comforting to see how a tense horse is allowed practice a movement to become accustomed to it - the reality of training very gracefully and correctly handled. Brilliant mare.
that is brilliant for mare who is just learning. really like this matt guy, he's very constant, but i really like that he gives lots of praise and lots of little breaks. and he's really cute :)
i agree entirely with stopping and praising as soon as you get a decent set of strides, its the only way to go but i love the fact he got this on so classically, and for a new horse her passage was excellent for classic dressage, some people should find out before they preach, this andi is excellent, i used to work a pre stallion like this, would again if i had the cash, well done keep it up
I know a fair share about horses, but may I ask why she is salivating so much after he mounts her? Is it because she is not used to that bit, or is that just natural for horses to do with the dressage bit?
Nice job. I am not a trainer, but a student of horsemanship. Having seen MANY trainers & training over the years, I find the easiest thing to do in H'manship is to find fault in someone else's methods. Everyone's a critic. In any case, the horse and trainer looked focused, but relaxed; good karma.
Can I ask why such a long period of work before the release... considering she is still so new with it. If horses learn by pressure release, how is making her do it for 45 seconds straight a release?
I just would have thought if she'd only done it 6 times, perhaps a dozen good steps then a pat would have been a better approach. I worry about frying their brains- if no release of pressure, then they get confused. Maybe I'm too much of a softy!
Nice... But I would have made sure he put the stirrups up first. Many horses will cow kick at the whip if they get frustrated. I hoof through a stirrup can cause horrific injuries.
She is actually doing good, more self carriage than you can normally see.. BUT, you are saying again and again that she has only done this a few times before. Tell yourself that too, i think you are asking too much at once. You have some halts, but i think you should have let her walk freely a bit before you asked again. Like this, the milk acid won't get time to go out from the muscles, and the piaffe won't be fun to do anymore, cos it hurts, and will give training aches the next day.
I truly appreciate everyone's comments and critiques on my mare and the work Matt is doing here with her. PLEASE keep in mind that this is lterally shot after the 6th time he's ever worked these movements with her. I've YET to see another horse do it PERFECT after 6 times. Keep your comments coming!!!
Get out of the middle of that horses back, get her hind end underneath her self and make it as beautiful as the front end. You're missing one essential key.
I like how once she is reminded to stay active she really concentrates and becomes very animated. Beautiful! I also like the trainer's light hands.. good job!
Horse feels moving of the whip making rythm even in half a meter away from skin, through the slow wind from whip's movements felt by the keen horse skin
It is not necessary to slap the croup every time:)
Hello i am definitely not a expert in things like the piaffe and passage but i am trying to learn. I have watched workouts many times but i have a question. Do yu start off a horse riding him or on the ground like this video? Ive seen people start them on the saddle and i do not think it correct but im not sure.
I have a question, I have a 4 yr old moresian gelding and I tried teaching piaffe in hand like you are doing but he likes to run me over instead of stay in one spot and in his own space. How do I stop this? Do all horses do this when they first start off?
lol. i think they all do that at first. lol. but keep trying, my coach trained her horse to do it by hand, and exactly the same thing happened- he is now at grand prix level, and is going perfectly!
she is georgeouse - i love dressage - theres so much stuff you can do and its amazing that a horse can recognise what you ask of him, this realy makes you apreciate how complex it realy is...
my idiot of a cousin saw some videos of people working in hand on youtube and tried it out on his brand new gelding. He got trampled. XD.....well kinda anyway. The gelding got his foot fair and square.
Oh sorry forgot to ask if you can make a video showing how to get other movements? Like Half Pass, Canter Half Pass, Extended Trot, etc. We want more Matt!!!
Has anyone on here ever taught a AQHA to do this? Like the chunky halter type? I am just wondering if my mare is even physically capable of it before I try it. Its pretty awsome though I am definitly thinking about doing some english stuff and taking a break from cutting and reining!
yes, it is quite possible for an AQH to do this. the great thing about dressage, is that it is just a system of training and all horses are capable of it. just keep mind your mare's previous training and learn together. please, for the sake of your mare though ;) consult a trainer and not just this video! :) good luck!
Piaffe is one of the most beautiful dressage moves ever! I wish my dressage horse could do that! :( anywase I really think he a good trainer, He seems very mute in emotions and very clam even though the horse isn't cute horse too!
how do you teach the piaffe? it seems that you got faster results then the way that i learned, which i think may be the wrong way. holding the horse in and bumping your legs on his side with tapping the whip on his forelegs. it seems that you started from teh ground first. how did you teach that at the ground? then transfer that into the saddle? i am quite intersted to know. thank you.
I think she looks really good! I remember seeing him during one of the Amercian Lippizan tours - he had a hole in his pants. Irrelevant, but there was a hole XD
Not with a Spanish horse it doesn't - Doesn't hurt to have Matt doing the training either. Thanks for the video - many don't get the opps to see great trainers at work with good horses. Few only get to see the finished product. Many think it's easy. Kudos.
Thank you for all the interest and the comments! Matt has been out of town for 2 weeks, but once he gets back and begins working with her again, I will be filming her progress.
Only in my opinion, horse training comes in many varieties. Just realize how many people train horses, meaning how many different ways exist to train the exact same 'movement'. I command the horse for its adaptability....continued below
Anybody can train the piaffe - "dance in place", but how efficiently is the horse using itself in order to create an athlete who will be able to execute these movements with ease and endurance, and feel comfortable and happy. Too many horses are sore, and show their discontent clearly. ...continued below
Sadly this is widely accepted as "normal" or excused with ex: 'mare-ish behavior'. Time, depends on proper training methods and the horses ability and character. A horse needs to be able to properly engage and gather (collection)-using the abs and be connected from head to tail (simply put). ...continued below
I realize this horse has only been working for a short while on this, but you can already see the typical evasive behaviors, hollow back, even in-hand. The Passage is very strung out, and many trainers believe this is a minor detail, but proper engaging of those muscles will prevent this. We don't teach our children Calculus before knowing what 2+2 is!
The person above is an idiot. Many trainers teach passage and piaffe this way you dumbass. The famous Lippizaner Stallions go through training similar to this.
What are you doing? You can't tell people this...Do you have any idea how many "Dressage Trainers" that will be out of work if their clients find this out it doesnt take 10 years?
Stop commenting about the whip..
The horse isn't in pain...

Can I ask why such a long period of work before the release... considering she is still so new with it. If horses learn by pressure release, how is making her do it for 45 seconds straight a release?
I just would have thought if she'd only done it 6 times, perhaps a dozen good steps then a pat would have been a better approach. I worry about frying their brains- if no release of pressure, then they get confused. Maybe I'm too much of a softy!
Love the passage she is showing.

Nice... But I would have made sure he put the stirrups up first. Many horses will cow kick at the whip if they get frustrated. I hoof through a stirrup can cause horrific injuries.

She is actually doing good, more self carriage than you can normally see.. BUT, you are saying again and again that she has only done this a few times before. Tell yourself that too, i think you are asking too much at once. You have some halts, but i think you should have let her walk freely a bit before you asked again. Like this, the milk acid won't get time to go out from the muscles, and the piaffe won't be fun to do anymore, cos it hurts, and will give training aches the next day.

I truly appreciate everyone's comments and critiques on my mare and the work Matt is doing here with her. PLEASE keep in mind that this is lterally shot after the 6th time he's ever worked these movements with her. I've YET to see another horse do it PERFECT after 6 times. Keep your comments coming!!!

Get out of the middle of that horses back, get her hind end underneath her self and make it as beautiful as the front end. You're missing one essential key.

Horse feels moving of the whip making rythm even in half a meter away from skin, through the slow wind from whip's movements felt by the keen horse skin
It is not necessary to slap the croup every time:)

camelotandalusians 3 years ago
Hello i am definitely not a expert in things like the piaffe and passage but i am trying to learn. I have watched workouts many times but i have a question. Do yu start off a horse riding him or on the ground like this video? Ive seen people start them on the saddle and i do not think it correct but im not sure.

This is what I love about dressage the precise execution, the discipline, the beauty, learning true patience, its an amazing discipline.
Very nice work with Belleza, it needs work but she's shaping up nice and the passage is beautiful. Great work!

I have a question, I have a 4 yr old moresian gelding and I tried teaching piaffe in hand like you are doing but he likes to run me over instead of stay in one spot and in his own space. How do I stop this? Do all horses do this when they first start off?
xHayleyBabex 3 years ago 3
lol. i think they all do that at first. lol. but keep trying, my coach trained her horse to do it by hand, and exactly the same thing happened- he is now at grand prix level, and is going perfectly!

Has anyone on here ever taught a AQHA to do this? Like the chunky halter type? I am just wondering if my mare is even physically capable of it before I try it. Its pretty awsome though I am definitly thinking about doing some english stuff and taking a break from cutting and reining!
equinesport 4 years ago
yes, it is quite possible for an AQH to do this. the great thing about dressage, is that it is just a system of training and all horses are capable of it. just keep mind your mare's previous training and learn together. please, for the sake of your mare though ;) consult a trainer and not just this video! :) good luck!

how do you teach a horse to do that my morgan mare doesnt get it when i tap her with my dressage whip on her bum?!

You start with one back leg at a time. You can order Matt's instuctional DVD; it's easy!
camelotandalusians 4 years ago
how do you teach the piaffe? it seems that you got faster results then the way that i learned, which i think may be the wrong way. holding the horse in and bumping your legs on his side with tapping the whip on his forelegs. it seems that you started from teh ground first. how did you teach that at the ground? then transfer that into the saddle? i am quite intersted to know. thank you.

Not with a Spanish horse it doesn't - Doesn't hurt to have Matt doing the training either. Thanks for the video - many don't get the opps to see great trainers at work with good horses. Few only get to see the finished product. Many think it's easy. Kudos.

Rickiesgurl 4 years ago
Continued. Under saddle one has to be careful to not use the whip (due to habit) always on one side, you 'can' create a hitch that way.
cavalo239 4 years ago
Only in my opinion, horse training comes in many varieties. Just realize how many people train horses, meaning how many different ways exist to train the exact same 'movement'. I command the horse for its adaptability....continued below
cavalo239 4 years ago
Anybody can train the piaffe - "dance in place", but how efficiently is the horse using itself in order to create an athlete who will be able to execute these movements with ease and endurance, and feel comfortable and happy. Too many horses are sore, and show their discontent clearly. ...continued below
cavalo239 4 years ago
Sadly this is widely accepted as "normal" or excused with ex: 'mare-ish behavior'. Time, depends on proper training methods and the horses ability and character. A horse needs to be able to properly engage and gather (collection)-using the abs and be connected from head to tail (simply put). ...continued below
cavalo239 4 years ago
I realize this horse has only been working for a short while on this, but you can already see the typical evasive behaviors, hollow back, even in-hand. The Passage is very strung out, and many trainers believe this is a minor detail, but proper engaging of those muscles will prevent this. We don't teach our children Calculus before knowing what 2+2 is!
cavalo239 4 years ago
The person above is an idiot. Many trainers teach passage and piaffe this way you dumbass. The famous Lippizaner Stallions go through training similar to this.
