Complicated? Boring? Quite the opposite! Cavaletti work is a refreshing change to the daily training routine for horses and riders. Working with cavaletti strengthens muscles and improves the basic gaits. It enhances a horse’s natural movement by developing rhythm, power, expression, and cadence through engaged steps over obstacles. In addition, cavaletti work trains riders’ seats, gives them better feeling for the horse, and teaches them to see a stride for jumping. This film, featuring Olympic dressage stallion Damon Hill as a young horse, shows everything you need to know to add cavaletti work to your schooling routine.
