Synopsis

Stef Eardley, an experienced instructor, and Stephanie Bateman, an equestrian journalist and horsewoman, have combined forces to provide an introduction to horsemanship for those starting to ride or already taking lessons. The book includes everything the new rider needs to know, from where to ride and what to wear to early lessons, hacking out, and even competing. Topics covered include: how to behave around horses, and understanding their basic nature; mounting--getting on and off; the basic position in the saddle and how to hold the reins; how to stop, go, and steer; walk, trot (rising/sitting), and canter; the jumping position and polework; how to hold a whip, changing from left to right; the value of lungeing; hacking, opening gates, galloping, road work, coping with traffic; and riding etiquette.
