Info

At Centennial Acres Equestrian Center, we are dedicated to training both horse and rider to achieve their highest potential in the sport of dressage. Our trainers have experience in training horses at many levels, from the green horse to upper levels, and the training philosophy is based on building the six steps in the "Scale of Training" - Rhythm, Relaxation, Contact, Impulsion, Straightness and Collection. The goal is to help the horse achieve a relaxed, confident, and athletic way of going. These principles assist the horse to accept more difficult exercises and achieve increasing levels of elasticity, impulsion, and suppleness. The methods used to train horse and rider allow the team to perform correctly, in harmony, and with enjoyment, building a true partnership.
