Customer Reviews

good for those dressage fans
Not what I was looking for anyway.
I wanted a step by step guide to what the learner rider has to do when trotting,cantering etc. As with alot of these books it tells you more about what the horse is doing underneath you! I needed tips ie thusting your pelvis forward whilst trotting in time with the horse-when you've mastered the knack, you and the horse should feel comfortable.
Hey Ho !
There is a lot of stuff for young children who own there own horse though.

Excellent All-rounder
I am just starting to learn to ride and found this book very informative. I like the way it covers lots of different topics right from your first lesson up to more advanced subjects. I also like the way it covered different disciplines and gave you an intro into Dressage, jumping etc. There are so many similar horse books out there for a beginner but i think this one is worth the money as its a good all rounder!

The right book for horses and riders
It's really a big guide for horse riders. It includes everything about riding, rider and horses. If you are a new beginner, this is the right book. If you are a show jumper, this again the right book. If you are an advanced instructer, again this is the right book. Dressage, show jumping,troubleshooting, self improvement for a rider, and more are all in this book. It is a very useful book. You shoul dhave it in your library.
