COVID-19-Upgrade: Important customer information
Currently, travel conditions are again affected by Covid-19. In some countries, measures to contain the pandemic are making it difficult for horse owners to care for their horses themselves. This can be very stressful. We would therefore like to clearly signal that we are currently accepting horses into our training program without restriction. Our business continues as usual and our training horses have the highest priority.
For inquiries please contact us by phone or send an e-mail to info@arr.de. Stay healthy!

Lateral MovementsWhen we see horses during analysis that show considerable movement problems and we ask how they worked these horses, very often the surprising answer is, “My trainer advised me to do many lateral movements to straighten the horse.” Of course, this makes people think that they have done everything to pave the way into a good future for the horse. In addition, major specialist magazines promote the idea that lateral movements have a great importance in training, particularly in-hand.

Our photos, drawings and findings are not always presented legally to the public. We are astonished that even renowned and highly decorated instructors do not stop at registered trademarks – but we are also honored. The fact that knowledge, for which we were once ridiculed, is now spread on multiple occasions and without second thoughts in the form of our drawings, photos and passages of text via Social Media, on websites and via PowerPoint presentations shows one thing above all: how big the influence of our work is. But to understand, implement or even more teach functional training and the associated straightness training with all aspects requires a longstanding and thorough study of our concept in theory and practice. People who pretend what they are not contribute to the dilution of the concepts we have shaped as well as our method. After all, those who suffer most are the horses. At this point, therefore, a note that you are welcome to pass on: Please do not forget that infringing trademark and copyright laws is a punishable offence.
Functional training, holistic approachOur expertise team supports us since 25 years. Only the smooth integration of all specialist skills makes the practical implementation of the holistic approach in horse training possible.
