Customer Reviews
An excellent book for anyone interested in classical riding and dressage
Beautiful photos which really show the elegance of classical riding.
Anja is a beautiful rider who we would all do well to emulate.
The book is a classic. Easy to read, easy to understand and with excellent explanations about the correct way to ride. Amja shows us that classical riding is not just for Iberians and is accessible to us all.
She also has a DVD out which is very inspiring.
