I don't get it. Why are people saying this isn't a training dvd? Or that it's just a lot of artsy stuff that doesn't teach you anything? Are you kidding me?
EVERYTHING that Klaus is saying...if you just take the time to LISTEN, to HEAR what he's saying....you will learn exactly what you need to know to Understand your horse.
and THAT is better than any regular training dvd that just tells you, do A then do B then do step C....because frankly, most of those "training dvds" don't bother to tell you the psycology behind the moves....
If you don't understand WHY, HOW, and the true use of body language...the language of the horse, then you can do all the steps you want, but you simply will reach a point where you won't be able to go much further....because you can get your horse to do what you want most of the time....but you'll still have some issues...
Until you understand how to COMMUNICATE with the horse using your body and your energy and your mood. Yeah, your mood plays a big part in training.
If you want the gravy for your potatoes....this is it.
Klaus takes the time through slow motion parts in the video so that you can SEE exactly what he's talking about. If all the video is in present time and there's no slow motion, you will miss what he's talking about. So, that's the reason behind the slo mo stuff. It's totally necessary.
If you don't "get" this video, then sadly, you won't "get" horses.
If you are serious and open-minded and want to "get" your horse, truly "get" your horse....then this video will definitely put you in a different level, a higher playing field than the typical training dvds.
HIGHLY recommended!

Trick Horse Training Fundamentals I Review

Trick Horse Training Fundamentals I

(More customer reviews)
I purchased Fundamentals I and II DVDs before Christmas and started teaching my horses obeisance (circus bow) to my horses during rainy season. Once we got started, my horses and I were hooked and I ordered the rest of his DVDs. Allen is an excellent instructor, providing clear step by step instructions on how to bring along your equine student. My horses have loved learning these tricks and now wait at the paddock gate, begging me to take them out to play. Teaching them tricks has opened up a new way of communicating with them. Name a behavior and reward it and they incorporate that behavior into their repetoire. Allen is the best!

Trick Horse Training Fundamentals II Review

I was hooked after watching Trick Horse Training Fundamentals I, and Trick Horse Training Fundamentals II did not disappoint!!! I have horses with a wide variety of temperaments and personalities, and Allen's techniques work for all of them. If I can figure out how to post a picture with this review, I will put one up so you can see this DVD in action--I was able to teach my horse to lay down, sit and sit up. They love these tricks as much as I do!

If Horses Could Speak: How Incorrect Modern Riding Negatively Affects Horses' Health Review

If Horses Could Speak: How Incorrect Modern Riding Negatively Affects Horses' Health
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This provocative and ground-breaking film, If Horses Could Speak, is based on the best-selling book Tug of War: "Modern" versus Classical Dressage--a book that shook the equestrian industry upon its initial release around the world. Now, you can take a step further into the examination of the horse's "riding experience" and see just how specific kinds of movement and posture impact the horse's skeleton and musculature.
Through the magic of amazing three-dimensional animation--as never-before-seen in an equestrian video of this kind--viewers are shown how the horse's limbs, muscles, and ligaments interact at various gaits. In addition, live-action examples of riding, both good and bad, demonstrate the effect human beings have on their equine "partners." Viewers are sure to be astounded by the direct role their riding has on their horse's physical and mental health and well-being.
If Horses Could Speak includes interviews with professional riders, veterinarians, and academics who specialize in the study of the horse's anatomy and how riders can best work with it, rather than against it. Plus, shocking clips from warm-up arenas around the world expose the dark side of competitive horse sport. Altogether an illuminating and eye-opening visual experience, this DVD is not to be missed by anyone who desires to train and ride horses in a way that nurtures and builds them up, rather than wears them out and tears them apart.
DR. GERD HEUSCHMANN trained as a Bereiter (master rider) in Germany before qualifying for veterinary study at Munich University. There he specialized in equine orthopedics for two years before accepting a post as the head of the breeding department at the German FN, which he eventually left to start his own practice in Warendorf. He has been an active member of the "hyperflexion" (previously referred to as Rollkur) debate, weighing in at the 2005 USDF National Symposium and the 2006 FEI Veterinary and Dressage Committees' Workshop. Along with Klaus Balkenhol and other prominent figures in the dressage community, Dr. Heuschmann is a founding member of "Xenophon," an organization dedicated to "fighting hard against serious mistakes in equestrian sport" ([...]).
