Horse Training In-Hand: A Modern Guide to Working from the Ground: Long Lines, Long and Short Reins, Work on the Longe
Description
Bringing new life to time-tested techniques, this gorgeously illustrated book
shows how “in-hand” methods can be used by the modern equestrian to better a
horse’s performance in any discipline. Thorough, step-by-step instructions for
promoting subtle communication via the handler’s voice, body, and reins will
improve the horse’s straightness, suppleness, balance, collection, and
understanding of the aids. With its ability to improve communication between
participants and instill in the horse lightness and obedience, these methods
are the perfect way to start an immature or green horse, safely begin remedial
training with a problem animal, confirm movements taught first under saddle,
maintain an older horse’s flexibility and balance, and allow those unable to
ride a method to continue training and conditioning their horse at the highest
level. Specific exercises cover the longe and double-longe lines, long lines,
and long and short reins. Featuring patterns that put all the lessons
together, the book confirms that in-hand training is the very best way to
teach and condition a horse for both serious schooling and recreational
pursuit. Read more
