Harmonic Dressage Part 2: Techniques of Harmonic Dressage and the Training Pyramid

This book presents, with great clarity, the logical basis of the Training Pyramid (also known as the Training Scale or Training Wheel) and how it is used to train horses - not just dressage horses, but horses used in any equestrian discipline. It discusses the necessary hierarchy represented in the Training Pyramid as well as how and why the elements of it affect each other. Horse owners, trainers and horse show judges will have a clear and concise guide to the German Training Pyramid with definitions, examples, photos, diagrams, and exercises which provide guidelines for flatwork. Trainers can use it as a teaching tool - a book for their students to purchase, read and have discussions about. It can also serve as a tool to bridge the gap between competitors and judges of dressage and western dressage.
