(More customer reviews)Building Blocks of Training: A Step-by-Step Guide to the Gymnastic Development of the Equine Athlete
This book is absolutely marevllous. From it I have learned things that have passed me by with other instructors over the years - in other words - these instructors have not explained things very clearly at all. They could yell out things like "slow-down" but not how to slow down, or "make sure you halt square" but not how to achieve this; or maybe even "use more half-halts" but never how to. This book reveals all and easily.
This book can be dipped into as a reference source or read from cover to cover. If you are experiencing a certain riding problem, you will be sure to find it here. The answer will be in a clear and succint form, with details of how to ride a particular 'item' e.g.(getting your horse to chew down, flex and lower) instructions will be given in an easy-to-remember block, and they will be clearly defined in a step-by-step manner, which will enable you to go out and ride that movement correctly and what's more have success with it.
During the descriptions of 'how-to' the book also gives references back to other 'items' which may pop up, another example of which would be "go into a regular rhythm trot" then you can check up that you are doing that correctly also. The cross-referencing makes it so easy that if you have any doubts at all about something, you can immediately clarify it.
In all a "must-have, top-of-your-wish-list-book" for riders and horses in all disciplines, it is a 'most-wanted' without all the too-lengthy too-technical, 'forgot what I was reading about' stuff.
EXCELLENT 10/10 5*

The first step to successful riding is developing a harmonious, two-way bond between horse and rider. This step-by-step guide, firmly rooted in classical training,explains how to gymnasticize a horse, achieve two-way communication, and prescribe troubleshooting solutions for bumps along the way.
