How to train a youngster with Daniel Bachmann

A lot of riders start from scratch with a very young horse. But how do you train a 3-4 year-old and how much? In this series, Daniel Bachmann, who is one of the World's most skilled dressage riders, will show and explain his approach to a young horse, who has to start the new life as a riding horse.

In this series we'll see a 4-year-old gelding, who's just broken in and a 6-year-old stallion, who still has some training to do, before he's ready to do the tests for his age.

Your videos are definately motivating me to keep working with my young horse. I live in a place with not many trainers around, so it is really cool to learn and be inspired by the videos. Ulla Jensen
Amazing! Your videos really help me a lot. I have been “in between” trainers for a while, and yet we have improved so much by watching your clever trainers. And the videoes are really easy to understand and beautiful to watch. Maiken Poulsen

My daugther and I watch Ride Better TV together. We discuss the training methods and then try them on the ponies. We also learn a lot from the dressage tests in terms of what the judges want to see. A huge help for both of us. Lena Pedersen
