Driven dressage young horse, trot-halt-walk

Driving coach gives pointers for increasing the horse's impulsion, getting him to bend around circles, performing a halt and salute, and walking off. In the trot, the driver is learning how to drive the horse forward into the bit and to take more rein contact, which encourages the horse to use his hind end more strongly to push himself forward. As that happens, the horse's back and neck round and the horse begins to stretch his head forward and down, thus working in a better "frame."

This way of working increases the horse's athleticism; the same principles apply as in ridden dressage. 6 year old Arabian/percheron gelding experienced in pleasure driving, starting to be more fine-tuned in his way of going, put to an Eagle combo carriage.Many more videos of these horses and others on my Channel!
