SETS is based on classical training principles handed down from horsemen to horsemen for centuries. Each of the ten developmental levels your horse must achieve are defined and clearly articulated. The exercises are illustrated providing you with a plan that will allow you and your horse to be competitive in western dressage and other advanced disciplines you and your horse undertake such as endurance riding, barrel racing, cutting, reining, or roping. Coordinated with the levels of today's Western Dressage competitions SETS will assist you in making your horse a successful and happy competitor that is sound and sane for life
