Horsemanship and Classical Equitation with Patrick King

Combining horsemanship and classical dressage, Patrick King is a wealth of knowledge and experience when it comes to a holistic approach to training. Some of you will have caught my conversation with Patrick live a couple of weeks back on Facebook, but I am super excited to bring it to you again in this week’s episode.

Among the many things we cover, Patrick discusses:

• The difference between groundwork and in-hand work
• Better understanding contact, and the relationship of the jaw and tongue connection to relaxation
• The primary and secondary function of the aids
• How in hand work translates to under saddle
