Young Horse Starting
Emily uses a slow, calm approach to begin the young dressage horse's career under saddle. UpHill Dressage's program teaches them all of the important life skills they will need in the future to become successful competition horses. In addition to becoming lovely riding horses we also train young horses to cross-tie, bath, clip, load on trailers, lunge and long-line. Emily's young horses are trained as 'dressage horses' from the start and are taught from the very beginning to respond to light hand, seat and leg aids. Stretching work, cavalettis and hacking are also an intregal part of the education of her young horses. It is paramount to her that her horses learn to love their job and love their people.
