Positive Academic Art Of Riding with Angelica Hesselius

The Academic Art of Riding was created by Bent Branderup with the aim to bring back the knowledge of the old dressage masters and to explain their work.

The ideals of the Academic Art of Riding are:

  • Using systematic gymnastic exercises topromote the horse’s physical and mental well being.
  • Using dressage for the horse, not the horse for dressage.
  •  Looking upon dressage as an art that offers horse and human a task in their life thatcan be performed with dignity until a great age.
  • Honouring the art of riding in a celebrating manner.
  •  Enlarging the circle of those who are dedicated to this art.In this course, you will learn about the theory and practice of training horses gymnastically to create soundness for life. The Course will all be ground-work and will cover, close in- hand work, lungeing and long-reining.Angelica specialises in teaching this Classical approach using positive reinforcement.

    ‘Horses and horse-training are my greatest passions. In my own riding I focus on balance and light- ness. Both from a horse and a rider’s individual point of view, but more importantly, as a unit. Riding and horse-training should be fun! For both of us! A pursuit of balance and equilibrium in both horse and human.’
