At equestrian shows the spotlight is on the horse and rider. However, the stars from the equestrian sport scene emphasise again and again that the team around them also contributes significantly to the success. Competent all-round supervision of the horses at home and beyond the showgrounds is indispensable to guarantee the well-being of the horses and ensure they are motivated at shows.

And the full-service training day of the CHIO Aachen CAMPUS offers precisely such all-round support that is necessary to ensure sustainable success in the equestrian sport. Amateur riders will be given the unique opportunity to take advantage of a full-service offer, which boasts an holistic concept and first-class experts, who are available to provide each participant with individual advice. In this way, each of them profits from a complete package of concentrated expertise – what’s more at the probably most beautiful equestrian sport grounds in the world.

For the show jumpers, Rob Ehrens, the former Dutch national coach, will be available for exclusive course training. He will discuss a given jumping course with each participant in detail, reveal possible weak points and give advice for further training. For the dressage riders, Fabienne Müller-Lütkemeier will be available for an exclusive training session; she will evaluate and analyze a task presented by horse and rider after the ride and give further top-class tips.

Subsequently, each participant will have the opportunity to have his seat examined and analysed on a simulator. After all, a correct seat and fine aids are imperative for riders and an elementary foundation for a successful collaboration with their sports partner, the horse.

On top of that each of the participants will be given tips from a sports doctor and fitness expert from the University Hospital Aachen on how to improve their balance, body tension, coordination and last, but not least agility long-term, so they can react to the horse more effectively and more finely in future. The rider's diet is also put under the microscope during a professional consultation. Not to be missed, of course, is the equine physiotherapy assessment by Kathrin Lövenich with exercises to do at home.

The diversified programme is rounded off by a competent consultation on insurance. From insurance policies that cover operations and illnesses, to liability insurance, through to legal expense policies for horse owners, experts from the health company, Allianz, will provide a comprehensive overview of how to make sure a rider and his sports partner are well-armed against all eventualities.
