3 Topics from the core of Dressage Naturally
We’ll go through 3 topics that touch the heart of the Dressage Naturally, spending 2 months on each topic. You can choose to do just one topic (2 months) OR go for the complete package (6 months, with or without personal support). Check out the topics here:
September-October 2020:
How to stay natural in playful while “doing dressage”
Let’s dive into the natural part of Dressage Naturally: a positive, playful yet progressive mindset, your leadership, your daily habits of horsemanship, building a relationship, motivation and communication
November-December 2020:
Relaxation + Energy = Power
Everything begins and ends with relaxation but you want some energy too! Not too little and not too much. Ideas and exercises for finding the right combination of relaxation and energy.
January-Februari 2021:
Basic alignment (balance, straightness) is the key to healthy biomechanics.
The Sweet Spot of Healthy biomechanics has three core ingredients: relaxation, energy and balance. These last two months we will dive into learning to feel for your horse’s balance and alignment and into the “basic alignment exercise”, probably the most important exercise of Dressage Naturally.
P.S. On the 2021 horizon … continued progress with an Upward Spiral series
Maybe after these 6 months we’ll go “next level” in 2021 and dive into the “Upward Spiral” subjects of suppleness, lateral movements and collectibility.
So if you want to start a progressive journey you may want to jump on board right now.
How does it work?
- You’ll be given access to the Dressage Naturally Video Classroom for the duration of your participation in the D,N Video Study Club. Around 400 video’s!! If you are already a member of the Classroom we’ll put your payment on hold for the duration of your participation in the Study Club.
- You’ll get access to the closed facebookgroup for members of the D,N Video Classroom, where you can share your successes and ask for support and recommended video’s. A safe and non-judgemental community.
- Every 1st of the month you will receive a specific selection of video’s to study. Of course you are going to practice with your horse. Knowledge is silver but experience is gold! Maybe you’ll adopt a complete exercise, maybe you’ll just focus on some details, depending on the level you are at already.
- For every topic (so every 2 months) we’ll have three online D,N Video Study Club Meetings. In this meetings Liesbeth Jorna – Licensed D,N Instructor – will answer all your questions and give you practical tips and deeper insights. These meetings will be on Tuesday’s at 8 p.m. (C)EST (Amsterdam time zone) and will be recorded for you.

FAQ: D,N Video Study Club or D,N Virtual Arena?
The D,N Video Study Club cannot replace the Sweet Spot and Upward Spiral courses in the D,N Virtual Arena. So: what is best for you?
If you really want to get into the nitty gritty details and not skip any step along the way (like I have done myself) I can highly recommend to join the Sweet Spot course as soon as you can.
Is that too big a step at this moment? Then the D,N Video Study Club can be a valuable stepping stone. Get a taste, experience the essence of D,N, get prepared for more. Or … dive into the details of a limited set of topics.
