The Full Training Board at Orlob Dressage is not a standard program – it is a structured system where every detail contributes to the long-term athletic development of the horse. The goal is a balanced athlete that is physically strong, mentally relaxed, and prepared for sustainable performance at international level.

Each horse is treated as an individual athlete, with a carefully balanced combination of training, management, and recovery to support long-term soundness and performance.

Training Structure:

Horses are worked 4–5 times per week, with the training intensity and content individually adapted based on age, experience, and current development stage.

The training focus ranges from correct foundation work in younger horses to refinement, strength building, and Grand Prix preparation for advanced horses. 

Daily Management & Wellbeing

A high standard of care ensures optimal physical and mental condition:

  • Regular paddock turnout for relaxation and natural movement
  • Controlled horse walker (treadmill/Lauf Band) work for conditioning and recovery
  • Hacking/outdoor riding to support mental balance and variation in training routine
  • Individual daily monitoring and adjustment based on each horse’s needs

Nutrition & Care

Each horse receives a fully individualized feeding program, tailored to workload, metabolism, and development goals.

The nutrition plan is designed to support:

  • Muscle Development
  • Energy Balance
  • Recovery and Regeneration
  • Long-term Health and Performance

High-quality feed and supplements are adjusted continuously according to training demands

Sales Horses

The sales horses at Orlob Dressage are carefully selected and developed through a structured training system designed to produce correct, rideable, and competitive sport horses for the international market.

Each horse is introduced into work based on its individual development and is produced with a clear focus on quality, balance, and long-term athletic potential. The goal is not only current performance, but suitability for continued progression through the levels of dressage up to international Grand Prix sport.

All horses benefit from consistent professional training, high-quality management, and a system that prioritizes correct basics, rideability, and mental stability under saddle.

Whether for ambitious amateurs or professional riders, the selection reflects horses with the ability to grow into their next career stage and meet the demands of modern sport.

Clinics

Marcus Orlob offers clinics for riders seeking a structured, systematic approach to dressage training and long-term development.

Each clinic is focused on practical work with horse and rider combinations, emphasizing clarity in communication, correct fundamentals, and consistent training principles that can be applied in daily work.

Marcus regularly travels nationally and internationally to conduct clinics, bringing his training system directly to riders and stables around the world. This allows him to work with a wide range of horses and riders while maintaining the same focus on correctness, development, and performance at every level.

The goal of each clinic is not only short-term improvement, but the creation of a clearer, more effective training direction that riders can continue to develop independently.

We are committed to helping riders of all levels achieve their dressage goals and improve their overall riding experience.
