Even though the Icelandic Horse is a breed of 1,000 years, it is a relative newcomer to the horse breed world outside of Iceland, probably about 50 years.
In Iceland, before this period of time, the horse was pretty natural, ridden without much in the way of mechanical aids. In this handful of decades, there have been a lot of unnatural things put upon the Icelandic Horse. We have the great opportunity now to bring the naturalness back to the Icelandic Horse. Let's all take a positive part in representing the breed in it's most natural riding and training style. Judy http://iceryder.net http://clickryder.com
