Description

This great new book is designed to help you learn more effectively and explains the importance of the principles of riding and how you can put these into practice. Its aims are to help you to think about your riding - why you should or shouldn't do certain things - and hopefully find the answers to questions you have always wanted to ask. This book will help you to become an active, thinking, enquiring rider, rather than a mere passenger. AUTHOR: Martin Diggle, having started riding as a young adult, was for many years involved with a Riding Club that actively encouraged membership from adult beginners. Whilst progressing to horse ownership and competing successfully in dressage, show jumping and eventing, he retained an interest in encouraging newcomers to the sport. An editor by profession, Martin is also an author whose previous books on riding include Riding from Scratch, Riding a Dressage Test, Riding Over Jumps, Teaching the Mature Rider, Teaching Basic Jumping and Basic Shooting Made Simple.
