The Principles of Riding

This is the eagerly-awaited translation of the latest German edition, fully revised and improved. The foundation principles presented offer a training method that is clear, logical and thorough. It ensures that the horse receives training that is both fair and appropriate to his equine nature, and enables the rider to enjoy and understand his sport and practice it safely. There is an emphasis on the psychological aspects of the horse and rider relationship. Also, the sections in jumping and cross-country training have been expanded over previous editions and made more comprehensive to reflect the importance of all-round training.
