Review by the NWHS
This DVD breaks down the basic principles in learning to feel the appropriate give in the horse. Rick takes you through the ground training techniques that translate into riding your horse using the very same cues. This simple to understand DVD teaches you how to get the most enjoyment from your gaited horse. Rick’s quiet manner reaches horses without fear and intimidation. I would recommend this DVD to anyone wanting to get the most from their gaited horse.
