Description
How do horses move, and why does each gait feel so different?
In this story-based, interactive course, kids learn how horses move through the walk, trot, canter, and gallop in a way that’s easy to understand and fun to explore. Guided by Pepper, a wise retired dressage mare, students discover rhythm, tempo, and balance through engaging lessons, beautiful illustrations, and hands-on activities.
From tapping out hoofbeat patterns to identifying gaits in motion, kids build a strong foundation in horse movement—helping them feel more confident in lessons, at the barn, and around horses.
Perfect for beginner riders, horse lovers, and homeschool learners, this course turns movement into something kids can see, feel, and understand.
