Shoulder Out Training
​
We all want the best for our horses. I believe that every horse should be treated kindly, and trained and ridden in a way that protects their long-term health.
But 'collection' and 'lateral work' are terms that are very misunderstood, and have been difficult to figure out for many horse owners.
And as a result, a lot of us tend to ride at home, or join friends for trail riding..... and our horses spend a lot of their time on the forehand.

• But what if there was a way to teach your horse - with kindness and consideration - how to begin lateral work... without needing a dressage riders 'death-grip'?
• What if there was an easy to to start both lateral work on the ground AND in the saddle, without pulling, or gadgets or force?
• A way that you will scratch your head and say.... 'If I knew it was that straight-forward, I would have done this years ago!'

There is an exercise that is the perfect way to begin collection. And it's called the Shoulder Out Training. And it can be done by any horse, regardless of discipline, on the ground and in the saddle.
