Did you Know...

Proper longeing technique can ensure a safe warm-up or training session for the horse and handler? When longeging, keep these tips in mind: use proper equipment and form; keep sessions short and on a large circle to reduce stress on legs and back; avoid allowing the horse to run, buck and play hard; and ensure that clients and staff are aware of proper techniques. Check out these longeing videos offered in both English and Spanish to help perfect your longeing technique.
