What is Long Lining?

Long lining (or long reining) is the practice of working a horse from the ground using two long reins attached to the bit or cavesson. It develops the horse's way of going, prepares youngsters for ridden work, and is a useful rehabilitation tool for horses returning from injury.

How to Use

• Young horses: introduce contact, steering and forward without the weight of a rider.
• Schooling: work on bend, suppleness and transitions from the ground, useful for hot or stiff horses.
• Rehab: bring a horse back into work after time off without ridden weight on the back.
• Driving prep: teach a horse to accept rein contact from behind before going to a vehicle.

Setup Tips

Most riders prefer a cavesson when starting youngsters and switch to the bit for refined contact work later. Run the lines through the stirrups (tied together under the belly) or through a roller's surcingle rings to keep them up off the ground. Start with short, straight lines along a wall, then move to circles once the horse is steering reliably.
