Description:
In this in-depth practical book on classical riding, author and expert rider Anne Wilson demonstrates that the teachings of classical riding can engender a more ethical way of interacting with horses. A wealth of 'how-to' information, via down-to-earth language and detailed imagery, will help readers put the principles into effect.
Review Quotes:
"I was excited when I heard about Anne Wilson's new book as her previous book, Riding Revelations had really impressed me. I'm not disappointed, once again a brilliant book! I have had it for a while and keep re-reading parts of it, especially for solving problems riding my stallion. The book's underlying grand theme is sensitivity in every move we ask our horses to do, including our own bodies. I can recommend it to any level of riders or teachers that are seeking a deep valiant relationship with their horses. Written in a way that's easy to understand, clear and to the point, with crucial details that many other authors miss or leave out. I wish it was translated in German or Italian. Definitely 5 stars!"

"I have only owned this book for approximately 2/3 weeks. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading it. It is written simply, but very thoroughly and there is much to be learned from it whether a beginner or more seasoned rider. The subjects are written without having to read pages and pages (which in a lot of books can get a bit too technical), but still come through with clear understanding of the subject matter. Highly recommended by myself as a very good read on Classical Training."
