WORK at WALK - neglected rather than appreciated
6 chapters around the topic WALK
Language: ENGLISH

Walk is the basic gait inherently used by the horse during most of its lifetime. As a steppe animal, it covers many kilometres per day at walk in order to find food. In modern equestrianism, the walk has unfortunately lost its significance, which is why we have dedicated a complete course to this topic. Our main focus here is to remind riders how important this gait is, and to help them understand and correctly perform work at walk.

What is an online course?
An online course offers a variety of options which we would like to explain in more detail.
An online course, unlike a webinar, enables us not only to provide participants with theoretical content at a specific time, but also to supply extensive accompanying material. The course platform offers all the functions required for this.
The course platform

Online material
The course platform we have selected is ELOPAGE. When you sign up for the course, you will receive access data to our course website. We will be activating a new chapter on this course website every week - AND the previous chapters will still be available - FOR A PERIOD OF 6 MONTHS
The structure of the course platform is easy to follow, each chapter is presented on an individual site. On the left side you can find the menu which allows you to switch back and forth between the individual chapters. You can view all materials directly online as often as you like.


Material DOWNLOADS

All videos, audio files, the presentations in pdf format, the script as well as any bonus materials will also be available as DOWNLOADS. This makes it possible for you to download all the materials and study the individual chapters in your own time, even without an internet connection.
At the very bottom of each individual course page you can find the DOWNLOAD FILES, which you can easily download with just one click.





What material does our course include?

  • This means you can take a closer look at the theory irrespective of where you are, even travelling, for example.
