Chuck Grant explains clearly step by step how to teach your horse the exhibition movements. The text is richly supplemented with photos which visually detail the training process.

5.  Training Video or DVD– Basic Dressage: As Good as You Want to Be with Mari Monda Zdunic and Harry Cooper

Is more than just a title, it is both the gift and the challenge you receive from dressage.  There’s only one limiting factor, because patience is all  you have to have to start; and a horse will come in handy. 

Training level through 4th level covers three walks, three trots, three canters, the leg yield, two track, suppleness, and flexion, frame and pace, over stride, transitions including flying lead changes, how to approach each task and how to accomplish it.  With Mari’s help, you’ll learn more about your horse than you ever imagined.  $65 video or dvd.

This tape works toward maximizing your horse's talent from PrixSt. Georges through Grand Prix de Dressage. We focus on becoming more precise at each of the movements learned earlier plus advanced lead changes including every stride, passage, piaffe and pirouettes. Highly recommended for beginning riders to show them where they are trying to go and for advanced riders to help them get there.  $65 video or dvd.

5.  Training Video or DVD– Haute E’cole Havin’ Fun

A patient and efficient guide to high schooling your horse.  Would you like your horse to kneel, bow, sit, lay down, say yes and no, Spanish walk, or cross its legs?  How about a circus bow, camel stretch, head stand, pedestal stand or HiHo Silver rear?  When it’s too hot, too cold, too wet, too muddy to work your horse, you can high school your horse with any trick you can think of that a horse is physically capable of doing.  All of the tricks above are gently taught in this program.  By the time you’ve taught all of them to your horse, you’ll be able to figure out how to build your own special list.    Do it just for the fun of it!  $65 video or dvd
