This instructional film shows how to get started with ground work. Pia explains the initial work with the halt, the posture and possibilities of influence of the trainer, how he leads the horse in the groundwork position, explains the secondary aids and which corrections may be necessary. Furthermore, she gives a brief insight into how you can use the basis of ground work to create a benefit and transition for lunge work and long rein work, which basic things you should pay attention to and how a common thread is formed in all of this throughout the entire training of horse and human.
