The Positive Riding System
| The Positive Riding
System is the lifelong work of Danish Bereiter Henrik Johansen. This
positive approach to training and teaching is based on the theories
and philosophies of classical dressage, as well as an understanding
of the horse's natural instincts, behaviors and psyche. By studying
the horse's natural way of moving, and developing the horse's
abilities using a language that the horse understands, we end up
with horses who reach their full potential. |

"The
Debate About the Dressage Horse’s Frame: What’s it all About?"
- Carina
Högkvist
discusses the ongoing and sometimes heated debate about the frame of the
horse – the way to ride “on the bit” – and the way in which today’s
dressage horses are ridden compared to the way they were ridden about 30
years ago.
