Overview

Riding horses is an age-old pleasure but one that can't be taken lightly. People who want to take up this wonderfully satisfying sport, and those who wish to improve their skill, will find this comprehensive and responsible book to riding styles and skills both inspiring and informative. Basic Riding Techniques tells you what you need to know to get started, section two goes into slightly more advanced skills, such as how to achieve bend and flexion. Introduction to Jumping explores the principles of rhythm and balance; The World of the Horse is a fascinating introduction to the world of competition and international horse shows; and, Equestrian Events examines the exciting world open to people who ride for sport and pleasure. (Parts of the book have been previously published in Debby's Practical Rider's Handbook, now OOP, with extensive new material and updates for this new volume.)
