Course content
Students practise here riding in the riding-hall at every gait and they improve the individual horse leading during all riding-hall exercises (it means the split riding on the wall). They learn to have control of the horse at every gait. They continue with the work on low fences, mainly for the correct jumping seat fixation. They practise the riding without stirrups at a walk and at a trot. The subject is also aimed at the seat fixation during the working canter and during the jump. Students learn to ride without stirrups at every gait and during the work over barriers. They learn to overleap some low nature fences and the ground roughness during the cross-country riding.
