Born in Germany, Steffen Peters<\/a> became a U.S. citizen in 1992 and is currently based in San Diego, California. At the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, he competed on Udon in his first of six Olympic Games, earning a team bronze medal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He represented the U.S. again in Beijing in 2008, placing fourth with Ravel, and at the 2012 London Games, he scored sixth in team competition. Peters won the 2009 FEI World Cup Dressage Final in Las Vegas, Nevada, aboard Ravel. He logged his best individual finish of bronze at the 2010 FEI World Equestrian Games in Lexington, Kentucky, and his best team finish of silver at 2018 Games in Tryon, North Carolina. Peters also won both individual and team gold medals at the 2011 and 2015 Pan American Games. Competing in his fourth Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, he earned a team bronze with Legolas 92. Five years later for the postponed Olympics in Tokyo, Peters improved to a team silver medal with Suppenkasper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here, this Olympian and trainer talks about the theories and techniques that launched him onto the international stage and helped her educate numerous riders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The High Performance Level<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. To get the most out of a horse who has excellent gaits but lacks suppleness or is overly sensitive, Peters said it\u2019s important to work his body in a position that makes him feel most comfortable. \u201cFor every horse, you must find the most productive frame and the most productive tempo,\u201d he noted. For example, Legolas 92 was more productive in a rounder frame and a slower-tempo trot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. To address suppleness in the warm-up, Peters uses this exercise: Trot down the long side in counter flexion. As you approach the short side, turn early and transition to true flexion. As your horse is in true flexion, leg yield away from your inside leg. Ride this exercise equally in both directions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Don\u2019t be afraid to let hot horses go forward. \u201cIt\u2019s tempting to ride hot horses too collected,\u201d Peters said. \u201cThe half-pass is a good movement for hot horses because it allows you to actually put your leg on while the horse moves sideways.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. \u201cEven with hotter horses, it\u2019s important to give them a break. It\u2019s not a good idea to wear them out. Even if the break is just for 30 seconds.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Building strength is gradual. \u201cStrength comes from brief moments of asking for more effort.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Get comfortable with centerlines. \u201cWe ride centerlines all the time in dressage, so make them your friend. Remember, nothing changes on centerline.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Focus on creating a positive training experience. Legolas 92 gets too excited in the changes after schooling piaffe\/passage, so Peters rides the changes first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Choose your battles wisely. Peters was comfortable with Legolas 92 earning a 6 or a 6.5 on the changes because some of his other movements are so much stronger. \u201cWe had a \u2018savings account.\u2019 The changes were not his savings account.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clear, Correct Aids<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

9. Have a high standard for giving aids in a very clear, correct way. \u201cIf the aids are that obvious, it\u2019s not dressage. Educate your horse so he responds to gentle leg pressure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Your horse should have respect for the bit and should respond to the smallest of aids. \u201cWhen we touch a horse on the inside rein, he should bend to the inside,\u201d Peters said. \u201cWhen I touch the bit ever so slightly, the horse must answer to this.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11. Don\u2019t rely on spurs. \u201cOnly use the spur to correct. Spurs are not intended to ride a movement,\u201d Peters said. \u201cMake a clear correction with the spur. If you are constantly giving your horse an aid, he will get numb to it. \u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12. Keep things simple. \u201cYou don\u2019t want to have to micromanage every little thing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

13. The horse must be happy in his mouth. \u201cWhat good are big, expressive movements if the horse isn\u2019t good in the contact?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

14. Listen to your gut. \u201cIt\u2019s important to listen to instruction, but it\u2019s also important to listen to your gut feeling about the right time to make a correction.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

15. Be decisive. \u201cThe wrong reaction is 10 times better than no reaction at all.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

16. Stick with what works in your training. Don\u2019t change the routine too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

17. Test your show preparedness by riding the challenging movements in a test. For example, if riding from an expressive trot to a calm walk is difficult for your horse, Peters advises practicing the transition exactly as it appears in the tests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

18. Incorporate plenty of praise. \u201cStop and let your horse think about it when he\u2019s done something right.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
