Getting Dressage Down
Dressage may be the foundation of riding, but that doesn't mean it's easy. Events involved with dressage are quite complicated and take practice and discipline to learn and perform. If you're interested in learning the ropes of dressage, you should sign up for lessons through an instructor. In addition, you should read up on some dressage training books to help you get a better idea of what is in store for you and your horse.
When you first begin dressage you will need to build a bond with your horse. It is a partnership based on trust and understanding and you will need to establish these things before you work successfully together as one. Then, you will need to put focus on gaits, movements, and establishing a general training regimen. It is not an easy process but it can be a rewarding one. As with most things, you will only get what you put into it.
