OPTIMIZING COMMUNICATION, BIOMECHANICS AND CONNECTION

Introducing Phase 1

In the first step of our journey, Phase 1 is where the magic truly begins. It's all about laying down a solid foundation that the rest of your learning will be built upon. Here's what you can expect:

Optimizing
Communication

Learn the art of clear, compassionate communication with your horse. We'll teach you how to understand and be understood, forming a bond that goes beyond mere commands.

Understanding
Biomechanics

Dive into the mechanics that make your horse move. By understanding how the body works, you can work with your horse rather than against it, ensuring a harmonious ride.

Building
Connection

This phase is also about fostering an authentic connection with your horse. It's not just about riding; it's about creating a partnership built on trust and understanding.

MASTERY OF THE LATERALS

Introducing Phase 2

In this next segment, Phase 2, of "The Road to Collection," we delve deep into the world of laterals. This pivotal aspect of horse training, when executed correctly, can work wonders in enhancing your horse's strength, agility, and suppleness.

With this comprehensive course, you're perfectly poised to seamlessly integrate laterals into your training regimen, leading to optimal connection and performance with your horse and the perfect foundation for collection.

Start with the Fundamentals

A thorough exploration of what laterals are. This section will help you grasp the foundational concepts and provide a clear overview, ensuring you're fully equipped to initiate training.

Technique and
Biomechanics

It's essential not just to understand how to teach laterals but also how to position your horse's body correctly. This segment delves into optimal body utilization in detail, ensuring a healthful and effective training experience.

Laterals as a
"Fitness Tool"

Learn how to use laterals as a instrument for enhancing your horse's fitness. By applying these techniques, your horse will become stronger, fitter, and more agile, contributing to superior performance and a happier, healthier horse.

FINDING THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF HARMONY AND BALANCE

Introducing Phase 3

In the following segment, Phase 3, of "The Road to Collection," we explore the intricate concept of collection in training. Collection is a crucial element that brings out the highest level of harmony and balance in a horse's movement. It's the pinnacle of training where the horse exhibits controlled power, responsiveness, and grace.

Through this practical course, you'll gain insights into the art of achieving collection, a state where your horse moves with maximum efficiency and minimal effort. The course is designed to guide you through the necessary steps to develop your horse's physical and mental abilities, leading to a profound connection, both physical as well as emotional. This journey towards collection not only enhances your horse's capabilities but also deepens the bond and understanding between horse and rider.

Optimal connection, communication and biomechanics

Progress towards collection by optimising and refining all the previous from phase 1 and 2 and integrate it with the basic responses, exercises and the foundational principles of the lateral movements.

Collection =
Self-carriage, lightness and responsiveness

Explore the nuances of collection, developing self-carriage, and achieving lightness and responsiveness.

Mastery leads
to harmony

And harmony leads to mastery. Master the art of creating harmony and balance between you and your horse.

With this course, The Road Collection, you have given me a step-by-step plan on how to work on my horse's body and energy.
One of the insights I have gained is that in order to work well with your horse and to get more connection, I must also work on my own energy.
I have learned that you can teach your horse something if you immediately take a break or reward him after a good attempt.
I also now understand that it is better to take small steps in the process of teaching your horse something. This ensures that the horse understands what is being asked better, learning goes faster and the connection with your horse remains good. I now also see that the learning moments for the horse lie more in bits of reward and breaks, than in having them do as many exercises as possible.

Kelly de Geus' online course "The Road to Collection" not only stands out for it's systematic approach to work a horse in hand, but for the fantastic theoretic content and the logical building blocks she presents in teaching the horse.

Her focus on developing the horse's core stability without restriction is wonderful. I have taken some of her exercises and thought process into my training under saddle with wonderful results, improved self carriage and collection.

I can only highly recommend this course as an foundation for Professionals and Amateurs.

I love the comprehensive course. The approach in the course is very educational. It is not just about learning exercises, but makes you think about dealing with the horse in general. How does the horse learn, how does a horse move and how can we improve it mentally and physically? These are all questions that are discussed in the course. Highly recommended!
