Full Description:
From the back cover: "'The publication of this book gives me great pleasure. I fully agree with its pervasive notion that "there is another way of riding" where force has no part, and I hope that those who read this book will make great use of it.' - Nuno Oliveira. ...CLASSICAL HORSEMANSHIP FOR OUR TIME presents the heritage of classical theories of riding in a modern, highly readable format. Jean Froissard, one of the world's masters of horsemanship, takes the reader through the development of a dressage horse, dressage in its truest sense, the training of a riding horse. He begins with the criteria for selection, then drescribes fully the progress of early training that is basic for any horse, whatever its equestrian discipline. Building systematically upon what has been learned, with constant emphasis on rewards, for even the slightest improvement, over punishment, he then takes the reader through the training progression up to the highest levels of dressage. The emphasis is always on the practical rather than the heavily theoretical, a blessing to those readers who have found themselves 'lost' when trying to apply what they have read to their day-to-day riding. ...While particularly addressing the dressage rider, CLASSICAL HORSEMANSHIP FOR OUR TIME is a supreme aid for all riders and competitors who desire a deeper and more complete understanding of the classical way of riding." |
