* New: Independant seat training methods developed by sports expert, Eckhardt Meyners. Meyners spent years developing a system that concentrates on the rider. It is a system that the riding teacher can integrate into any training plan. Previously, many teachers concentrated too much on the horse and not enough on the rider. With the help of this 6-point-program from Meyners, the trainer can advance the rider much quicker to achieve harmony with the horse. This system has been so effective and successful that the Professional Riders Group acknowledged this and there is now a certified program available for trainers. With the help of this new program, it has made it easier for trainers to create harmony between student and horse. The rider is freed of blockages, stress factors and muscle tension, so that the communication between horses and rider is more effective and harmonious.
