The missing piece of the puzzle for dressage riders

With a long list of Australian Dressage Championships to his name, not to mention a top-ten finish at the World Equestrian Games, plus years coaching all levels up to Grand Prix and even Olympian eventers, Brett Parbery has done a LOT of thinking over many years how best to train horses (and riders!).

Brett explained to us that these days, everyone watches little training clips on YouTube but these mostly only confuse matters. He says it’s the system that riders need to learn, not random pieces of information that don’t fit together.

For example, why is the outside rein so important? How exactly should it be used and when? What should it feel like? How does it relate to the horse’s training?

That’s why Brett created his online course . It’s all about filling in the gaps and providing you with the knowledge you need for all your tuition to make sense and for you to know what you need to work on, how to train effectively and how to become an independent and smart rider even when your coach isn’t on the ground telling you what to do.
