In the old days, horses occupied a large place in people's lives. Often they were the only means of transportation: almost everyone knew how to ride a horse. The peasants used them as labor. A person’s life sometimes depended on the speed and endurance of a horse. People understood the need to find a common language with horses.
Nowadays, it is rare for anyone on the farm to have these animals. And a few units know how to leave them. Usually this is done by specially trained people. An unburnt horse is the name of an animal that does not know how to obey the promise of a rider.
Dressage Tasks
They depend on the breed of horses and for what purpose they are intended.
In horse racing or equestrianism, the horse must not only be strong, fast and hardy. Even if she knows how to walk under the saddle, she is nevertheless considered unencumbered until she learns to obey the horseman's promises.
If the horse is intended for working purposes, its main task is to carry a cart, walk with a plow and harrow. As such, she does not need dressage. All that is enough to teach her is to listen to the simple orders of the owner and follow them.
Dressage steps
An unburnt horse is simply an untrained animal. Each, like a person, has his own character. Some are kind and affectionate, others are harmful and embittered. A person must first learn for himself, and then find an approach to the horse and train it.
- First stage. The horse must be able to walk under the rider. It is beyond the power of a horse to ride out.
- Second stage. The animal is taught to obey the signals that the rider gives. Signals (sends) are the shankel (the inside of the rider’s legs from the knee and below), the voice, hands, the position of the rider’s body, the whip, and spurs.
- Third stage. Horse training. Depends on the goals that the horse and its owner face.
The horse is very shy and sensitive. And if she is stubborn, it means either she is uncomfortable or the rider gives her the wrong message.
