Getting started with in-hand schooling - a podcast by Ali

In this episode we are joined by Vicky Robain, a dressage trainer living and working in Portugal.  Vicky take us through the basics of in-hand schooling, with why we do it, the benefits to horse and handler, what equipment we need and common mistakes to avoid.  The conversation also touches on equestrian culture in Portugal and Vicky's training philosphy founded on the principles of classical dressage.

We hope you feel able to give in hand schooling a go following this listen.

Nine to Five Rider has released this podcast early to support with a return to riding following lockdown.  We publish podcasts on Fridays and hope you will follow us on Instagram to stay up to to date - @9to5rider.
