This book is about developing that 'perfect understanding'. Whether you
practice dressage, hack, event or show, the improvement of your horse
through an understanding of 'his' language, should allow him greater
ability and confidence in all your work together. The aim of The
Balanced Horse is to confirm in people's minds what they should be doing
for each request, and what they must avoid. The author abhors the use of
force and gadgetry in the schooling of horses and believes classical
riding is the best way forward for all the disciplines.
