After two years of basic training, Dablino (age 5) is a dressage horse is in the making. Systematic schooling, step by step, now focuses on the improvement of the half halt, distinct transition within the paces, lateral movements and flying changes preparing for Prix St. George. Klaus Balkenhol says: “The art of riding lies in achieving a great effect with very sensitive signals. This is known as sensitizing a horse. That means the horse concentrates on the rider, on the rider’s aids.”  The video provides a masterful insight into dealing with a super talented horse who is also hyper sensitive to the competition environment. Klaus's daughter Annabel (Beli) takes on the ride of this special horse that Klaus fell in love with, The video  tracks their progress and their challenges through to Prix St Georges success, where they are now poised to make the move up to Grand Prix. Klaus is open minded about his own continual learning and uses the help of world renowned behavioural expert, Linda Tellington-Jones.

“If I’m active on the horse, the horse must react.” Klaus Balkenhol
