Training the Young Horse


A young horse has been sent to Flugumýri for training.  Elisa Klose is using techniques she learned at Hólar, from which she has recently graduated.


I put this video up so that experienced horse people can see how groundwork and suppling are used by one particular trainer.  It is not a How To, but rather a How Done.  But it does represent a progressive school of training that is being adopted in Iceland.

 

A foreign student at Hólar


Elisa Klose came from Germany to Iceland to learn about the Icelandic horses and had to take a crash course in Icelandic when she started Hólar College.  She tells us about what it was like to be a foreign student during her job at the farm, Flugumýri.
