Kulavale Performance Horses also provides structured education and training for horses. All education provided is based on the principles of dressage and is designed to improve the communication between horse and rider and improve the horses way of going. Training generally involves the following:

In-hand work so the horse learns to take it's cue from it's handler.

Teaching the horse to move off pressure - both on and off the ground.

Lunging and long-reining to teach the horse to carry itself in a more correct uphill frame and stop and go on command.

General breaking and training

Ridden work following the same principles so the rider is better able to communicate what they want the horse to do and the horse is better able to comply with these requirements.
