Classical Dressage Training

~ claire ballardie

 

As a classical dressage trainer, for many years,  my philosophy is to fix things before taking them into the saddle.

I work with riders to help with body function and mental process, unblocking negative thought patterns, which can help so much with being stuck.

A partnership with a horse is very special. Taking time to really notice what is going on for you in relation to the horse develops self-awareness and helps you to understand how you function.

Developing your relationship with your horse influences how you cope under pressure at competitions, hacking out, and knowing that your horse understands you and your aids is crucial to developing trust between you and for quick reactions when needed.

Individual lessons and clinics available on a freelance basis. Lessons start from £45 plus travel. Please contact me for details.

On-line training options are also available if you are too far away to travel to.

 

Free-schooling with Norman

~ claire ballardie

Here is a short video of Norman schooling himself. Undulating ground adds to fitness and balance, so if you do not have a sand school, good old-fashioned grass is fine. Just check the footing is not slippery first. Working without a lunge line, in a secure place, helps you to develop communication with your body language and voice.
