Riding, or the art of riding, begins at the point where the rider determines the direction of the horse and the speed at which it travels. The successful outcome depends on the combined skills of the partners, as well as the rider’s understanding of the mechanisms at his disposal. Here, Sara Wyche explores the relationship between horse and rider, riding aids and their application, and how an understanding of the horse’s anatomy can improve riding skills. Illustrated with Sara’s own drawings throughout, this will be a thought-provoking book for horse owners and riders.
