- “In-Hand Lessons with Manolo Mendez - An Introduction to Working In-Hand“ is designed to help you help your horse be suppler, straighter, and more balanced in-hand leading to a calmer, healthier horse under saddle. It benefits horses of all breeds and disciplines because it is based on understanding how to create healthy postures and recognizing and developing healthy gaits.
The DVD is a 3 hour- plus introduction to groundwork and working in hand with horses. It is practical and un-intimidating and follows the first five lessons of equestrian and biomechanics lecturer Jillian Kreinbring as she learns to shape, influence and enhance horses’ postures and gaits for the better with the help of a cavesson and a bamboo. Jillian asks a lot of questions which is very helpful for viewers at home.
Manolo discusses and demonstrates everything from how to select bamboo and adjust a cavesson properly, to how to create and regulate forward, how to halt, turn, change direction while maintaining healthy flexion throughout the horse’s topline, how to introduce shoulder fore, shoulder in, turn on the haunches, shoulder in - out, to the wall and more..
The DVD also contains additional footage of Manolo working in-hand and demonstrating exercises with two inexperienced horses.
In addition, Manolo shares his way of introducing a young horse to lungeing and discusses and demonstrates how to transition a young horse from lungeing to riding.
Finally, the DVD contains a section on What the Horse’s Body Tells You, where Manolo and Jilly observe a horse together and discuss physical landmarks and what they mean, how to improve them.
While Jillian practices the exercises, Manolo gives her feedback and steps in to correct common mistakes, ensuring that viewers get a good understanding of what to do, and what to avoid.

"I have worked with many international trainers and coaches and Manolo has the best understanding of the horse from the horse's point of view. I have complete trust in his training methods, totally agree with them and they compliment what I try to instill in my students as well. The horse's best interest is never compromised and at the same time the potential of the horse can be fully reached."
