Synopsis

Teaching horses is really all about teaching ourselves to act in ways which make sense to the horse.This tenth book in the Life Skills for Horses series provides twelve training plans that anyone can incorporate into the groundwork they do with a horse. Regular, varied gymnastic movement is incredibly important to keep our horses supple and interested. It's good for the handler too.Horses in captivity, like people with office jobs, are often overfed and under-exercised. It's not surprising that many horses in affluent countries show the same diseases of abundance as many people in the West.By focussing on using our body language clearly and consistently, so the horse can easily make sense of what we are asking, we create a win-win situation.Each flexion exercise is thin-sliced into small teachable parts. Prerequisites for the success of each task are outlined to ensure that training is started at a point that allows each human-horse partnership to be successful with the new task.
