In between the exercises the horse is allowed to take a brake! In this brake the horse
yawns for several minutes.

    The horses must be very patient to tolerate people learning all the time. Do you buy patient horses, or do you train the horses to be patient?

    1. They are very patient! The students with less experiences use the horses with a lot of experiences and v.v. The school own 10 horses and when we have to by a new one we try to test the horse for a couple of weeks first.

    1. Maybe som kind if stress or a sign of "to much information". Some people say that it is a sign of relaxation or sign of "I´m not afraid of you, I´m ready to do something for you".
