From January 1st on, in Switzerland the Rollkur as trainings method is prohibited by law. Switzerland is the first country in which these practices are legally halted.
Basically, the Rollkur (and hyperflexion) is already forbidden at shows by the FEI, but now it’s also not permitted anywhere else and it’s called animal abuse.
