What's Your Dream?
A Message from Karen Rohlf:
"If you are like me, you want to have it all with your horse. You want an amazing partnership with him, but you also want to develop the quality of his gaits, and generally be in the best and most harmonious connection you can with him mentally, emotionally, and physically.
If this is you, you've probably had to piece together your own program; you've likely been frustrated when your natural horsemanship instructor didn't understand the benefits of dressage, or your dressage instructor didn't understand the other things you were doing with your horse. You may have gotten confused in lessons because you weren't able to make sense of all the different techniques you are using.
I get it. I've been there. That's why I created this Video Classroom. My passion is to share my experience in dressage and natural horsemanship so that you can have the best of both worlds. The truth is that it makes perfect sense to do dressage in a partnership-based context, and I am here so you can use my journey for your gain!
Students from around the world are accelerating their progress in the Dressage Naturally Video Classroom. The videos help you to be a better rider and a better human for your horse. As you learn the partnership and communication skills from these videos, your riding will improve dramatically and you will have skills that you can take forward with you, however you want to progress with your horse... it's also very likely you will be having a lot more fun while you do it!

What People Are Saying...
"I cannot express how grateful I am to the universe for guiding me towards DN and to you for this program." ~Shannon
"Just wanted you to know how much I have enjoyed reading your book and watching the videos in the classroom. I have taken so many Dressage Lessons and while I learned a lot, it wasn't until studying Dressage Naturally that the movements and techniques started to come together and have a purpose." ~Busy
"I am literally devouring your book, dvd and now am a member of The Classroom. Dressage Naturally completes the circle. You have made the connection I needed. With every video I watch and every article I read there is something that helps me." ~Joanne
"It didn't matter who we were working with, or which video we played, we ALWAYS found solutions and ideas to apply to the needs of the horses in our care." ~Susanna
"Karen's resourcefulness never ceases to amaze me, and she is always coming up with new inventive ways to teach people. Karen also has a wonderful way of bridging the gap between Natural Horsemanship language and the Dressage vocabulary. She can speak both! It is nice to have an instructor that you can ask in Layman's terms anything about Dressage and have her understand what you're asking! Especially for first time horse owners that may be only starting out in Dressage." ~Niki
"You really are doing a great job of bridging the gap between Natural Horsemanship and Dressage. There isn't much support for 'finesse' riding in the other program I follow, but your material sure gets those concepts across well. I love how you explain everything in the videos, and have captions to clarify. Your explanation of half pass is great! I never quite understood it, but the diagram in the book really helped! I have been incorporating some of your exercises into my training program and they are complimenting what my instructor is teaching me very well. It's always nice to get a different perspective on the same material... Watching you with your horses is magical. It is truly wonderful to see the partnership you have with them." ~Karen
"In the process of investing my heart and soul and money into Dressage lessons over many years, it dawned on me that we should be riding with more joy. Something pointed me to Dressage Naturally and Karen Rohlf. What struck me most was that her voice was full of joy! Few sentences from her are missing a chuckle, a laugh, or a smile. The minute I decided to be joyful with my horse no matter what he does, my riding changed. Everyone should get to feel that." ~Judy
