Horse Academy Training 1: Rider Training Program

This program, structured around 6 steps and 44 exercises, offers concrete and progressive solutions to improve your technique and deepen the connection with your horse.

The exercise setups, very easy to arrange in your outdoor arena or indoor hall, are designed to accommodate riders of all levels. More experienced riders can, for example, increase the difficulty by replacing ground poles with cavaletti or jumps.

Whatever equestrian discipline you practice (dressage, jumping, eventing, etc.) or your goals (leisure or competition), you will learn step by step all the components of harmonious riding:

• A fluid position, adapted to every situation
• A free and confident mindset
• Subtle and understanding aids
• Precision and lightness in guiding and controlling the horse

The educational content of the Training Michel Robert booklet is presented as cards, easy to take with you to your training ground (size 12 x 8 cm). This way, you always have all the information you need for your training at hand.

For each card, you will find:

• On the front: the goal of the exercise, a diagram of the setup, and specific tips
• On the back: a detailed reference to the Michel Robert method and his advice for successfully completing the exercise

Photos of Michel Robert in action help you clearly visualize the correct postures and positions, which are essential for the success of your exercises.
