Review
"Offering specific exercises designed to improve both your riding technique and the way you interact with your horse in general, this book successfully incorporates broad theories into a practical training method." —Practical Horseman
"This book is impressive from beginning to end. The authors present a huge amount of information with incredible detail and clarity. Read this one with a notepad and pen in hand!" —The Horsemen's Yankee Pedlar
Product Description
The common belief that riding a horse can happen effortlessly and naturally is dispelled in this training method from one of the world's leading schools. The method teaches that riding is an activity that must be learned by both horse and rider through a conscious awareness that ultimately will become a subconscious ability, once the modern equestrian gains a "feel" for riding. Not purely a technical endeavor, a feel for riding is developed by learning to communicate with a flight animal and a herd animal, developing self-knowledge and self-control, developing body control, body language, and an independent seat, and learning to give effective aids by training with "questions and answers." Covering the important points that classical literature overlooks, such as the being of the horse and rider psychology, this revolutionary methodology will help a rider achieve awareness and feel in the saddle.

5.0 out of 5 stars
essential reading,
By Dorothy Parker "Dorothy" (canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ride Horses with Awareness and Feel: The New Dressage Training System from the Dutch Olympians at Academy Bartels (Hardcover)
I have read and re-read this book. I have it handy so I can just pick up and read various sections. It is a real departure from other 'dressage' or 'riding ' books inthat it deals with the psyche of the horse and the mental aspects of riding as well as the technical aspects of riding. Your horse will love it if you read this book and take its' advice to heart. If this is what is at the heart of the Dutch training system no wonder they are doing so well in the discipline of Dressage.

Excellent!,
This review is from: Ride Horses with Awareness and Feel: The New Dressage Training System from the Dutch Olympians at Academy Bartels (Hardcover)
I highly recommend this book to any dressage rider or rider in general. I have a very talented and smart horse that is always a challange for me mentally to work through issues and this book really gets into how to work through those issues and consider how you approach challanges and conflicts that arrise as you train and progress.
