Synopsis

Real Riding offers exciting new ways to approach traditional and natural principles of horsemanship. The emphasis throughout is on employing empathy and understanding and looking at things from the horse's point of view. It sheds new light on common misconceptions, difficulties and contradictions, and the pages are crammed with exercises, simple 'tricks' and things to do that can make a real difference. Innovative, thought-provoking and fun, this book can be read from cover to cover or dipped into, always to find some priceless insight into an aspect of horsemanship. Perry Wood puts harmony with horses within the grasp of every rider and brings the art of riding into the twenty-first century.
