If you'd like more detail on how to go through this list (in addition to watching video of a young horse progressing through each of the lessons) then refer to the Case Studies module in the Kandoo Equine Online Training.

If you are not yet a member and would like to be you can join here (or if membership is closed at the time of reading this, simply email me, [email protected] and I'll do my best to get you in).
Have you had a horse out of work for an extended period of time? If so, were you surprised at how quickly they came back and how much of their training they had retained? Tell us about your experience in the comments below.
