Help your beginner students prepare for our second level of mounted Western riding lessons using the Yellow Level Horsemanship study guide.
This “textbook” for Yellow Level explains important concepts at the walk and jog, and emphasizes the importance of a strong foundation before learning to lope.
Students begin the transition from passenger to thinking rider in this level, learning to evaluate safe riding conditions for their mounts and to recognize their influence on the horse’s movement and behavior.
ABOUT OUR STUDY GUIDES
We use the study guides, along with our lesson plans and other educational resources, to provide detailed instructional content for mounted classes or clinics — and for our students to study at home in preparation for lessons.
We’ve also found study guides to be an invaluable asset when coordinating instruction between multiple instructors or training assistants and barn helpers.
