  • Lunging 101 & Basic Position Clinic Report
    Lunging 101 & Basic Riding Position Clinician Kristin Hermann speaks at Horse Around Acres Midland, Pa. www.horsearoundacres.com ! Correct lunging and riding is an art which requires skill. Applying these skills to train a horse is even more complicated. When asked to do a clinic, Kristin Hermann decided that rather than do another riding clinic if riders could develop good lunging skills and learn about what is required for a good basic riding position, then their dressage could become that much easier. The hardest part of dressage is getting the horse to be on the aids, thus lunging in side-reins can help to develop the horse"s correct top-line and having the correct riding position enables the rider to put the horse on the aids to keep it “on the bit.” !Too often equestrians think of lunging as a means to get extra energy out of the horse and not as a training tool. Lunging is a training tool that can help to develop relaxation, rhythm, and the horse"s top-line to be round. These are the first three requirements on the United States Dressage Federation"s (USDF) Training Scale of Training that can be developed under saddle and while lunging. Lunging, however, is not just running a horse in a circle. Lunging to train the horse requires skill and finesse, as does riding. The ability to coordinate a twenty foot line with a horse on the end and coordinate walking in a small circle is quite a feat! Kristin believes that being able to lunge a horse will help all riders develop better aid coordination, which is required for riding.

  • In Modern Riding the Snaffle Is the Largest of the Four Bitting Groups And
    vertical, the pressures are across the lower jaw and to some degree on the lips, encouraging flexion and some retraction of the nose. In the more advanced frame, with the head on or close to vertical, the pressure is almost entirely across the lower jaw, with a sympathetic raising of the hand playing on the lips to correct the outline and head carriage if necessary. Variations can be seen in both the shapes and designs of the mouthpieces, and the cheek pieces. The various mouthpieces can be found with a variety of cheek pieces, depending on the needs of the horse and rider. MOUTHPIECE VARIATIONS WITHIN THE GROUP The jointed snaffle comes in many variations. The single join with simple straight stainless steels arms is a very familiar bit to riders. While still commonly used, it has fallen out of favour somewhat in recent years. This is largely due discussions regarding the so-called ‘nutcracker effect’ the bit can have in the mouth. As a contact is taken, the arms and rings come closer together, squeezing the lower jaw, while the lifting of the join may impinge on the horse’s palate, depending on the angle of bit to hand. However, a lot of horses go very well in a single join bit- some prefer it as this style of bit does not rest primarily on the tongue. Any bit with a double join- Lozenge, French plate, roller centre etc- works to eliminate the ‘nutcracker action’ and to increase rider communication via the tongue. The inward squeezing is eliminated and there is a more even pressure across the tongue and jaw.
