German Martingale

The term "German Martingale" can refer to a few different things within the context of horse training and riding. One of the most common interpretations is a piece of training equipment used in horse riding to assist with proper head carriage and neck flexion. It's important to note that opinions on the effectiveness and appropriateness of this equipment can vary among equestrians, and its use should be approached with consideration for the individual horse and rider's needs.

The German Martingale is a type of training aid designed to encourage a horse to work in a rounded frame by promoting flexion at the poll (the top of the horse's head where it attaches to the neck).
