When used correctly, longeing, also known as lunging is a very useful training tool. When learning how to lunge a horse, the horse moves around the handler in a circle. The handler controls the horse by using aids that ask him to move faster or slower, bend on a circle or move closer to or farther away from you.
Aids include your voice and body language. By longeing your horse, you are given the ability to watch him from the ground, so you can monitor his movement, his soundness and his natural frame. Longeing before a ride can decrease the inherent risk of riding a hot horse, therefore increasing your safety. However, longeing incorrectly can be very dangerous for both you and your horse.
