Always a Good Ride – Dressage Simulator

Barbro Ask-​Upmark teaches the art of dressage on the famous mechanical horse, «Luke». She provides top notch instruction in the classical methods of riding. I have had the opportunity to ride Luke several times and have discovered things about my own riding that my horse has been incredibly patient with me on! I’ve improved my seat substantially, learned what the correct feel and contact is, learned how to use my legs more effectively and the correct way to give a half-​halt! I can’t believe this but I’ve been riding for over twenty years and never knew how to do a correct half-​halt!
I am a firm believer that Luke can help any rider, from the brand-​new to the experienced Grand Prix rider — the only problem is staying humble enough to learn!
She’s also going to be offering a jumping simulator sometime next year, so I’m really looking forward to that. I don’t know how to jump but I feel a lot safer learning on a simulator. I can imagine that most parents feel the same way that I do about having their kids learn too.
I HIGHLY recommend that all dressage riders take lessons on Luke — just because it’s so amazing — Luke never lies, and we have the opportunity to get better and more consistent.
