Etymology

The term 'manege' originates from the French word 'manège', which refers to the training of horses and is derived from the Latin 'manuālis', meaning 'of the hand'. Its usage in English has evolved since the early 18th century, originally denoting a place for training horses. Over time, it has also adapted to refer to the actions involved in handling and managing horses effectively. The concept of a manege has expanded beyond mere physical spaces to symbolize skill and expertise in equestrian practices. The term reflects the intricate relationship between horse and rider, a dynamic that has fascinated people for centuries. In contemporary usage, while the term still retains its equestrian roots, it also captures the essence of skillful management in various contexts.
