Riding correct half halts - how do they work?

Riding correct half halts - how do they work?

Half halts are an important way to communicate with our horse, to get its attention or to provide help in movements and figures. But how do we ride them correctly? Dirk Bolten explains the theory behind a half halt.

Academy-Trainer Dirk Bolten is rider by himself and rode successfully up to advanced jumping classes. As a trainer for movements, oriented on the model of Eckart Meyners, he constantly educates himself in topics like seat and coordination teaching. Always fascinating to see in his classes: He manages it to get big results with little effort.
