The Pessoa system is a popular training aid that can help improve your horse's topline and balance. However, to ensure that it works effectively, it's important to properly fit and adjust the system. In this video, we'll provide you with a step-by-step guide to setting up the Pessoa system, ensuring that it's properly fitted and adjusted for your horse's individual needs.
Join us as we cover the basic principles of setting up the Pessoa system, including selecting the right size and configuration, attaching the ropes and pulleys, and adjusting the tension. We'll provide you with detailed instructions on how to fit the system to your horse, ensuring that it's snug but not too tight, and that the ropes and pulleys are positioned correctly.

Amazing! We use this system on all our horses that ride in all disciplines. Teaches them to use their body in connection without a rider and to balance.

Hi this is the best video on KZbin in regards to this type of paseo lunging system Can you please let me know how many days a week is acceptable to use that on my appendix horse He's very stiff hard to get to bend and I've been writing him dressage for 2 years and he just sucks But I noticed using this tool he has improved dramatically Can you let me know how many days a week I'm allowed to use this on him for 30 minutes at a time

Can this be attached not to side ring but girth? Between his front legs?

Hi!Thank you for your message! I have put a Pessoa on top of a saddle before and even ridden in one, to try it out. It's all in the set up and attachments. With the Pessoa I don't put it between the from legs but I do attach to the side of the saddle. The back piece of the Pessoa attachment is the hardest because it needs a place to clip and some saddles have a ring somewhere on the back of the saddle to clip in.
