dressage simulator
|
The most popular simulator, The Dressage Simulator, accommodates riders of all levels from beginners to the advanced. This horse enables students to perfect advanced dressage movements, such as Piaffe, Passage and Half Pass, as well as being able to carry out basic arena work.
The fully Interactive Dressage Simulator offers a revolutionary way to focus on skills and balance by viewing immediate visual feedback on seat position and riding movements. It is used worldwide by professionals and amateur riders as an essential aid to training. “I was pleasantly surprised how realistic the ride was when I tried it. It helps the rider to learn correct seat and position, timing of the aids, even how and when to make half halts. The ‘horse’ helps by giving the rider the correct feel in self carriage, the responsiveness and the rhythm that is only achieved by the well trained Dressage horse. It is an invaluable training tool.” David Hunt (FEI Dressage committee member, President International Dressage Trainer Club, President British International Dressage Trainers Foundation, British Dressage Director of Training).

RIDER BALANCEBalance and position in the saddle is displayed on screen - this allows the instructor to analyse and assess what a rider is doing, using information also collected from the rein sensors and leg sensors.

Practice a testAs well as basic ground work, the Dressage Simulator allows riders to practise a number of pre-programmed tests or practice their own. Each test is recorded and can be then played back afterwards for further analysis.

AUTO-TRAINING ROUTINEThe auto-training routine is a firm favourite with instructors as it provides a meaningful and repeatable assessment of rider balance, bit contact and leg pressure though the gaits. It is excellent for assessing what a rider does in the saddle whilst moving completely automatically though walk, trot and canter. All sensors activity is recorded for 1 or 2 minutes and results can be printed off afterwards.
