"After riding until exhaustion, I end each work day by showering and watching DTO videos over and over until going to bed.  The next day I imagine myself in the same situation as the video the night before and "poof" almost as if the horse could read my mind, he was quickly able to achieve the maneuver.  I cannot express in words the impact your service has had upon my mental approach to training, and each and every student at our facility.  The opportunity to sit in a relaxed atmosphere, absent distractions, has provided a mental "re programming" that produces "real time" results when in the saddle.  Thank you for this educational opportunity, and thank you for providing such a venue for everyone interested in the discipline of Dressage to ride beside the best in the sport."

J.T. Burnley, Wrenwood Dressage, USA

 

"I finished watching the rest of his videos- and he did get good results and the horse does seem fine, so his method did seem to work. I totally appreciate his and other trainers perspectives and that's what makes your site so incredible, everyone can find something here that works for them, so thank you so much!
