(11/07/07) Schooling Horses in Hand A Means of Suppling and Collection Richard Hinrichs BEST-SELLING VIDEO NOW AVAILABLE ON DVD! For centuries, horses have been schooled in hand within the classical schools of riding, yet today work in hand is often forgotten, set aside as unimportant, or thought to be too time-consuming by modern trainers. In this DVD, German trainer Richard Hinrichs, an acknowledged expert on schooling in hand, shows how his program of schooling from the ground builds trust, obedience, and balance in the horse. He clearly demonstrates that in-hand work is an excellent way of supporting and complementing work under saddle, and can be especially helpful for riders striving to achieve the higher-level movements for dressage competition. RICHARD HINRICHS trained at the Spanish Riding School in Vienna as a young man. Today he performs widely with his Lippizaner and Andalusian horses, demonstrating the fine art of classical horsemanship. 45 minutes · DVD · 1 57076 337 2 · $39.95...See less

(11/07/07) Recommended for: Riders at all levels. | Editor's Description: This book makes you want to breath, stretch and move. The photographs show a wide variety of people in terms of ages and sizes, on and off horseback, all engaged in yoga postures. Intriguing quotes fill the margins; many are from renowned instructors such as Charles de Kunffy and Sally Swift; others are from texts of yoga masters. But the book goes deeper than just showing riders how to perform certain yoga postures. "Holistic riding involves more than physical mechanics and cultivates a deeper connection between body, breath, mind, and horse," writes Benedik in her introduction. The concepts in yoga are "as ancient and classical as horsemanship itself," they write in the first chapter, and from that point onward they succeed admirably in teaching the rider how to apply what they have learned. Relaxing through breath, riding without force, adjusting body alignment, deepening the seat, and many other aspects of horsemanship...See less

(11/07/07) Recommended for: Owners and trainers of foals and young western horses | Editor's Description: This highly instructional no-fuss book begins with foal imprinting and ends with a young horse trotting over cavelletti and small cross-rails. During this two-year journey author Laurie Trusdauskas reinforces the key points of successful training. "If he learns as a foal that he can resist, think of how he will act when you begin to saddle break him. Teach him right from wrong now, and your job will be much easier later." Each new chapter marks a stage of growth for both the colt and the trainer. One critical chapter helps the trainer pick an appropriate discipline for the colt based on the young horse's conformation, willingness to learn, and suitability to each discipline. She wisely insists that if you lack the expertise to decipher your colt's inclinations, ask for professional help. "The money spent now can save you time, money and effort down the road. Working with your colt, not...See less

(11/07/07) Editor's Description: From your daughter�s first lead-line class to your wife or husband�s bid for the division championship, from a magazine or online sales ad to a short video to interest a potential buyer, most horse people try to capture countless photo ops. Unfortunately, the resulting pictures and videos are often disappointing perhaps failing to follow the action or losing the subject in a blur of motion or the glare of sunlight. While the family album or home video collection can forgive bloopers, if the lovely mare you wish to sell appears ill-proportioned or your stallion is filmed parading in front of a clutter of farm equipment, potential clients will see not beauty or talent only camera-induced flaws.

(11/07/07) Editor's Description: Few forms of exercise are better suited for equestrians than Tai Chi, an ancient Chinese art that unifies the body, mind, and spirit in a series of flowing movements that align the posture, breath, and inner-and outer-most being. Combining this practice with horsemanship offers a rider the opportunity to become one with her horse, to better her skills by centering her body, gaining control of her breathing, and calming her mind. From the Yin and Yang perspective and opening the Eight Gates, to enhancing movement and power on the ground and refining skills in the saddle, Shaw teaches the techniques necessary to achieve a true connection with the horse. With step-by-step color photographs to guide readers through introductory exercises and a basic discussion of Eastern philosophy, this book provides a great foundation for a new way of riding.See less
