| Train Your Mini to Be All He Can Be, Longeing, Dressage, tricks, Driving, Jumping. Super work regarding the Miniature Horse.

The first book of its kind for Mini lovers, Mini School takes the training and conditioning of Minis seriously as that of their full size cousins. With real, honest-to- goodness in-hand work that promises a relaxed. supple body and correct frame as well as obedience, you're given the tools to transform your cuddly companion into a sleek, well-muscled athlete and a talented entertainer. You'll find valuable information on:

How Minis learn, with discussion of both 'earning through association' and ' learning through success."

Work on the longe line, long lines, and long reins with special instruction on the proper use of side reins and whip cues.

Popular tricks loved by audiences and Mini alike - bowing, kneeling, sitting, lying down, rearing to name but a few.

Lateral work, including leg yield, shoulder-in, haunches-in, and half pass.

Dressage movements in-hand such as pirouettes, piaffe, passage, and levade.

Conditioning through cross-training, featuring fun driving exercises in the arena and on roads and trails.

Plus a dictionary of voice commands and tips on how to use them.

TheHorseStudio.com review: This is a comprehensive look at all sorts of fun and practical training advice for the Mini owner. Easy to assimilate read, with lots of photos. Advice is succinct and not overwhelming with technical theory, and a good place to start. I think it an inspiring read that will guide any Mini owner to enjoy much more from their cuddly friends, and facilitate a more serious appreciation for everything Mini. As everyone that has owned one knows, they are lots of fun in a neat package. This work was originally published in Germany under the name Die-Pony Akademie and this German author brings her experience of training warmbloods to the Mini horse owner. Sabine has shown her Mini Appaloosa at many events throughout Germany, causing quite a stir as the petite horse gains audience attention by his fluid movements and great training. It's a great place to start work with your Mini, and if you need further advice on trick training, long lining etc., you can always revisit us here at TheHorseStudio.com and check out our Trick Training section for more fun ideas or our Dressage or Driving Depts. Great to see good help with bringing more to the Mini world.
