Walter Zettl is one of the world’s most accomplished and revered masters of classical
dressage and a sought-after clinician and coach. His “Matter of Trust” video series
focuses on a harmonious partnership between horse and rider.
The “Matter of Trust” series documents Walter A Zettl’s classic dressage training
techniques. The series covers the basics of the gaits through the advanced movements
including piaffe, passage and pirouettes. Zettl’s message of maintaining a partnership
with the horse at all levels of training is emphasized throughout the series. Each training
technique is demonstrated and supported with Zettl’s detailed narrative on the exercise.
Along with volumes one through four, we have added a fifth DVD
with many extras including more interview clips with Walter, expanded ride sequences
showing Walter in action, and even Walter working with top reining and western
performance horses- demonstrating the universal application of classical dressage
training.
Walter Zettl’s extensive experience, superb communications skills and patient approach
to the training and execution of the movements, make this collection an invaluable
training tooling. The videos show each movement in slow motion, while Walter explains
the timing of the aid used to produce the movement making the process very easy to follow.
