World Champion “longe line” trainer Gord Wadds, reveals his winning system step-by-step in the newest www.HorseCoursesOnline.com course: Competitive Longe Line Training.
One of the fastest growing competitions in the horse show world, Competitive Longe Line combines the elements of a conformation class with the disciplined movement of rail performance. Wadds’ expertise at “picking them, training them, and presenting them” has earned him the title “King of the Longe Lines” around show pens all over the nation and in Canada.
Competitive Longe Line covers: Choosing the Prospect; Pre-school; The First Training Session; Following the Game Plan; Moving Out of the Round Pen; At the Show. Students work with Wadds one-on-one by e-mail and will get his expert opinion as to how they are progressing when they submit videos for review.
Wadds reveals some of his “special” techniques in the new course. “It’s all about showing off the horse’s grace and athleticism at the walk, jog and lope,” he says with a knowing grin. “There are some tips and tricks to making it happen.”
The course can be taken for full college credit as an elective in the Breyer State University Bachelor of Science in Equine Studies degree program, or it can be used for credit in earning a Professional Certification as a horse trainer or riding instructor in the Equine Studies Institute program.

Wadds says some of the most important concepts for students to master are the “perfect circle”, “the inside track”, “the how and when of the reverse” and show time “grooming.” To see a course description and outline visit: www.horsecoursesonline.com/index/index_longe_line_description.html
Students may start the course at any time and work at their own pace, and while a “yearling” is preferred, they may use any horse while mastering the techniques being taught. The course provides an excellent foundation for any horse which will go on to rail performance.
