https://www.expohorse.ch The training of the young horse - Classical riding as a human form of expression and training method Andreas Hausberger Andreas Hausberger was born in 1965 in Amstetten in Lower Austria and, as the son of a horse breeder, had a relationship with horses from an early age. In 1984, he was accepted as a student in the Spanish Riding School's strict selection process. "There are always a lot of applicants because the Spanish Riding School only accepts three riding students, so-called students, every two years. And once you are accepted, it is even more difficult to stay. 80 percent of the students have to leave again in the first few years." The Austrian was one of the 20 percent who were allowed to stay. He learned classical dressage and was appointed rider in 1993 after independently training a young stallion. In 2007 he was promoted to head rider and since 2012 Andreas Hausberger has been primarily responsible for the management and further development of the training center on Heldenberg. In addition, the riding master is a state-certified special trainer for dressage and teaches not only in Austria, but internationally, including in Germany, France, the USA, South Africa and Australia. His students include Jessica von Bredow-Werndl, the team bronze medalist at the European Championships in Aachen in 2015, and Patrizia Bottani, a member of the Swiss Olympic team. Andreas Hausberger's second passion is learning different languages so that he can get to know people and countries better on his travels. In addition to German and English, he speaks Arabic, for example. He will give a lecture at ExpoHorse on the topic of "The training of young horses - classical riding as a human form of expression and training method." He will speak about the three stages of training a young horse: - the remount school with lunging, breaking in and the first year of training - the campagne school with collection, gymnastics, position and bending, curb bit and work on the hand - the high school with the schools on and above the ground
