This book is excellent. The text is straight-forward and easy to follow, as are the exercises -- amply illustrated. I found just doing a twenty minute routine from this book daily has already helped with suppleness, flexibility and relaxation. If you enjoyed Sally Swift's Centered Riding, then you'll find this a very complimentary read. If fact Swift garners a few mentions along the way. You can't go far in riding if you're tense or inflexible, and this book has lots of ways to counter both those problems. I highly recommend it.

In a very easy to read style Rashid takes the reader on a journey in horsemanship. It reads as easily as any novel, told from the point of view of 'the kid' under the guidance of 'the old man', but there are nuggets of pure gold here. A great book for either adults or children who want to learn more about horses and why they do the things they do -- and how you can get the best from them without force ot cruelty.
