Excellent Resource,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Gymnastic Riding System Using Mind, Body, and Spirit: Progressive Training for Rider and Horse (Hardcover)
This is an excellent book with a approach that is easly to follow. I've read many books about the pyrimid approach, but this book really made sence of it. The outlined format is what I like. It's concise and to the point! I copied the pyrimid and posted in the tack room as a quick reference.

Different in a good way,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Gymnastic Riding System Using Mind, Body, and Spirit: Progressive Training for Rider and Horse (Hardcover)
I've read Riding Success Without stress, Centered Riding, & Natural Riding & really didn't find them worth the purchase price because I had done kickboxing, ballet, stretching, & yoga before I ever got on a horse, so I already knew how to use my center muscles. Not that I don't have more to learn. But what I need is in this book. It's complete.In case you need to know- in the title- 'spirit' = 'emotions'

Gymnastic Riding System,
By "xspursnwhipx" (Dallas, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Gymnastic Riding System Using Mind, Body, and Spirit: Progressive Training for Rider and Horse (Hardcover)
I found this book different from most other equestrian books, and with that it was very refreshing. However I must admit that for the rider on a busy schedule some of the ideas listed may not be very practical. I did , however find this book to be a great tool for some of my young beginning riders as it helps them get off on the right foot. It seems these concepts would be easier to master on a clean slate.
