By the time you start training for dressage, your horse should be used to being on the bit. But that doesn’t mean that all bits are the same. Try some different ones to see which your horse responds well to. Some horses prefer a softer bit, while others require a firmer bit. For most horses, a double-jointed bit works best for dressage training. Help your horse loosen their muscles by lunging them out. Hook a simple lunge line to the halter or bridle and lead them in a circle around the enclosure. A typical warm-up session should last about 15-20 minutes. During the warm-up, you can practice changing gaits and directions. It’s a good idea to head into the training session with an idea of what you want to work on. Maybe you want to teach a particular stretch or jump. Keep in mind that horses have moods, just like people. If your horse is acting difficult or uninterested, they might need to work on something else that day.  Instead of working on a new skill, go back and polish up a skill that you’ve worked on previously. If your horse is really low energy, try just going for a leisurely ride. You can also try a new skill again the next time. Let your horse know that you are in control by giving clear orders. Use the same types of clucks and verbal commands (like “whoa”) during each session. Don’t let your horse get away with pulling you or changing directions without being asked.  Your horse will feel confident knowing that you are in control. If your horse is having a bad day, give them plenty of breaks. They might just need a rest. Before you can train specific skills in dressage, you need your horse to be able to maintain the same gait for an entire dressage test. Warm your horse up by walking, trotting, and cantering for a few minutes each. Then, ride your horse around the ring several times in a trot. This will help them find their rhythm. Responsiveness is key in dressage, and your horse will find it easier to respond when they’re easily able to move and follow cues. To practice circles, place a traffic cone or jump standard in the center of the ring.  Practice riding your horse in 20 metres (66 ft) circles around the cone. Using the reins, press the horse against your inside leg while turning in the circle. Their nose should be pointed slightly towards the cone as you ride in circles. Spend equal amounts of time riding clockwise and counterclockwise. Horses can get bored with routine. Mix things up by finding different ways to spend time together. You can take trail rides or practice low jumps in place of a more focused training session.
