Connect with Your Horse from the Ground Up: Transform the Way You See, Feel, and Ride with a Whole New Kind of Groundwork Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Peggy Cummings's use of Linda Tellington-Jones's techniques in her own groundwork appealed to me b/c I also like the Tellington-Jones philosophy. I will be using the exercises I'm learning from this book when I begin to rehab my mare after surgery. My other 2 mares will get a chance to try the Cummings groundwork, and I suspect they will enjoy it. The book was easy to follow with pictures and diagrams, and I think it belongs in any horsewoman's equine library.

Introducing a new approach to specialized groundwork for horse training, this guide provides more than two dozen exercises to help horses and their handlers find a reciprocal connection on the ground before the rider takes a position in the saddle. These exercises-done both standing still and in motion-are shown to drastically change the way a rider sees and feels about the horse, and immediately improve how the horse moves, responds, and works. Aspiring to the ideals of lightness and ease promoted by top riding instructors and classical texts, the exercises found in this manual help handlers achieve the goals of discipline and joy that they have for their horses-leaving behind the mechanical, stiff movements that inhibit horses from expressing their innate curiosity, trust, and freedom of motion.
