  Synopsis Details Reviews  
From the best selling author, comes this beautiful new book of exercises designed for the progressive training of the horse. Sally O'Connor offers riders a vast selection of exercises for improving and developing the horse. Recognizing that each horse is an individual and there is no automatic programme that covers all horses, the exercises included are intended to cover a wide variety of purposes making the book especially useful in its versatility. The exercises range from some of the horse's earliest lessons through piaffe and passage, and include both mounted and in-hand exercises. There are exercises that focus on developing the horse's flexion and enhancing his suppleness, to developing full canter and the advanced lateral movements. All are "tried and tested", and represent the author's years of working with horses and learning from some of the world's best trainers, in effect representing the "best of the best".
