Publisher Description: Highly respected author Sally O'Connor shares her lifetime of experience in this collection of exercises designed for the progressive training of the horse, from earliest lessons through piaffe and passage. Some of the exercises are quite specific and will only be used to solve temporary problems or issues. Others are used in the progression of training and lead to even more sophisticated exercises as the horse develops strength and balance. Each exercise is illustrated with clear diagrams or beautiful color photographs, which along with the direct text make seemingly complicated exercises become quite understandable. In-hand exercises, lungeing, and under saddle are all included. This book will be a treasure for all those seeking to improve their horses and for those who are already Sally's fans. |
