Back in the old days, training horses was a complex yet somewhat intuitive process. First, they had to build trust with the horse. This could be done by spending time with the horse in its stable, grooming it, and talking softly to it. When it came to actual training, they would use a combination of physical cues like the pressure of the bit in the horse's mouth, the position of the rider's legs, and the movement of the reins. Voice commands were also important. They would start with basic commands like 'walk', 'trot', and'stop'. As the horse learned, they would gradually introduce more complex maneuvers. And of course, positive reinforcement in the form of food or praise was a key part of the training process.
