"Dressage, in general is horsemanship that is based on love and
respect of horses. It is aimed at the improvementof the horse's natural abilities to fulfill his ultimate potential. It results
in a happy horse that usually lives longer, stays healthier, and performs better and for a longer time than one not dressaged.
The method of dressage includes only natural means for the development of the horse. Therefore, it is based on mutual understanding,
respect, and trust between horse and rider. It is based on kindness and reward rather than punishment, and it excludes the
use of force."
