About This Book

A practical manual that presents a systematic method for schooling horses centered on reestablishing and perfecting the animal's natural balance and lightness. It critiques harsh traditional restraints and replaces them with progressively gentler tack, culminating in a simple bridle, while insisting that technique and a skilled instructor remain necessary. The method stresses straightness and correct weight distribution between fore and hind, explains how improper alignment causes resistance, and lays out progressive exercises—including lateral flexion and controlled weight shifts—to develop the rider's tactile sense and produce steady, responsive, and balanced movement.
