Dressage School - Britta Schoffmann - Bog - Trafalgar Square - Plusbog.dk

Dressage School - Britta Schoffmann - Bog - Trafalgar Square - Plusbog.dk

In this fantastically detailed and uniquely organised reference, readers discover the what, the how, and–most importantly–the why of more than 100 dressage movements. Color photographs of riders of various levels and on different breeds of horse show how each movement should look when ridden correctly. Not only is each movement clearly defined, but explanations include common mistakes and how to avoid them, as well as the benefits of each exercise and how it contributes to the “bigger picture” of the dressage training scale. “T his book appealed to me ,” says gold-medal-winning Olympian Isabell Werth. “ Especially important is the emphasis on the meaning of the individual dressage movements within the overall context of a horse’s training. Only the rider who understands why the movements are important and what their purposes are can build a dressage horse systematically. This applies to both the development of the horse''s muscles and the development of his mind. ” Throughout, emphasis is placed on the horse as an individual and how it is the rider''s responsibility to learn to customise movements and lessons to benefit any horse, with his particular physical and psychological characteristics in mind. Practical and easy-to-follow, this valuable resource provides explanations in seconds that will last a lifetime of rides.

Taming Wild - Elsa Sinclair - Bog - Trafalgar Square - Plusbog.dk

Taming Wild - Elsa Sinclair - Bog - Trafalgar Square - Plusbog.dk

“If we train and work with our horses without any tools or food rewards,” says horsewoman Elsa Sinclair, “they have the freedom in every moment to tell us how comfortable it is for them. If it’s not comfortable, they simply walk away.”The idea when working with horses is we can develop our feel and timing “within the comfort zone of the horse.” Allowing the horse the freedom of choice is at the core of Sinclair’s Freedom Based Training® method. The techniques she uses and teaches were first developed as she spent a year with an untouched Mustang mare, seeking to discover whether, without any ropes or halters or treats or sticks, she and her horse could develop a language and a way of deciding to do things together—a collaborative effort rather than one that plays by the rules of horse training tradition. Sinclair’s exploratory project with her Mustang Myrnah became the documentary film Taming Wild, viewed by thousands from around the world, and opening new avenues for Sinclair to share her discoveries. But Sinclair’s journey began 30 years before Taming Wild, and the lessons and contrasts and hard questions she faced as a lifelong rider and a talented horse trainer, which she bravely shares in these pages, are rich in value for all those considering their own life with horses. Sinclair dares to show how—despite her successes and her ability to make a living and her constant search for different means of handling the inevitable conflicts that arise when two species struggle to communicate—the way things “were done” just didn’t sit right. She dreamed of something else, something different—for some other way for humans to be with horses. Sinclair’s style is to teach through storytelling, and the result is the reader walks away from these pages with not only an understanding of why a quest for a more insightful, more collaborative training method was needed, but also how to begin to incorporate the basics of Freedom Based Training in a modern life with horses. Sinclair knew when she started her project with Myrnah that their story might potentially be bigger than just the two of them. Taming Wild, the movie, began a movement, and now her book continues it. Together we will move the needle of horsemanship closer to an ideal, where human expectations are in step with the horses we ride, rather than the other way around.

Long-Reining - Wilfried Gehrmann - Bog - Trafalgar Square - Plusbog.dk

Long-Reining - Wilfried Gehrmann - Bog - Trafalgar Square - Plusbog.dk

The art of long-reining (long-lining)—directing the horse from the ground with two extended reins to reach the trainer''s hands—is incredibly beneficial for both horse and rider. It provides a means of conditioning a young horse before he is strong enough to support a rider. It is a way to rehabilitate a horse who may be coming back into work after extended time off. It can be a safe alternative for schooling an animal with behavioral challenges that make riding dangerous. And of course, it is wonderful preparation for both riding and driving, as it teaches the horse to respond to the rein and voice aids, and it provides the handler with an understanding of the horse''s body language, comprehension of the lesson, and reactions to training challenges.If long-reining is an essential building block in a horse''s training, this book is the essential building block in every horse person''s education. In these pages, the world''s “long-reining maestro,” Wilfried Gehrmann, provides the basics to preparing the horse and handling the reins and whip, as well as positioning of the handler''s body—both when moving with the horse and when asking the horse to move around you in longe circles and other figures.Gehrmann also introduces the progressive training that can be accomplished on the long reins according to the classical Training Scale, providing readers a foundation that allows for more creative uses of the technique as conditioning and abilities in both horse and rider increase. For those with interests in dressage and performance, he provides instructions for correctly developing both piaffe and passage on the ground before attempting them under saddle.A book that is a timeless, solid reference that intends to help more people work with their horses in diverse and beneficial ways, and with pages full of useful tips gathered over a lifetime of studious practice by one of the technique''s very best, Long-Reining: The Classical Training Method is a brilliant and valuable groundwork education for every trainer and rider, whatever their discipline.
