Basics! Basics! Basics!
I found this book to have quite a different approach to teaching the beginner to ride.The author focus on balance and safety, and not moving the rider forward until a they are proficent in basic skills.
Fabulous!
A fabulous, practical book that addresses a common but "secret" problem of so many horse lovers...fear and anxiety.This is especially distressing to adult riders who used to be able to just jump on and GO!Gincy gives concrete and helpful exercises for us to do on and off the horse.She uses great visualization techniques like Sally Swift.It's great to have a book that addresses riding instead of ground training.Thank you Gincy!

The Best!
Returning to riding after many years away from horses, I was injured just when I was starting to get my confidence back.This added an element of fear that I hadn't ever had to deal with before.

Great Jumping book for beginners
This book creates a great foundation to train yourself and your horse to excell in jumping no matter what your intentions may be. I personally would recomend this book for all ages and engligh riders even the one's with no intention on jumping.

A Great Book To Keep In Your Tack Room!
I have started to do some of these exercises with my Appaloosa gelding. He is ten, but has gone western the two years he has been trained and is very ignorant of english riding skills.
101 Jumping Exercises for Horse & Rider
I bought the book originally to add some variety to my training sessions and to obtain ideas on different exercises.Now both my trainer and I do not jump without the book close by.The different grid exercises have added so much to our workouts!Not only has it helped our horses become more confident it has helped our equitation tremendously.I would highly recommend this book for both beginers and the more experienced rider! ...

Imperfect but a Great Start!!!
I purchased this book in an effort to make good on the commitment I made to my hulking 5th wife.She (Bessie) has been increasingly difficult to manage and in general, a bit of an overweight wild bronco.I, semi-correctly, thought this book would help.I note the following from the book's description:
An enjoyable read.
I am reading books on horsemanship.I had seleted various authors and cooresponding trainers. Each offer styles that work. Each are similiar. The difference is the preentation of the material. I have a dog and have brought him back from the meanest one I ever owned. He was abused and he has found a very loving home. He is no longer mean, showing his teeth on every approach. The things I see in horse training are very similiar to how I work with dogs.
Great book for new horse owner
I am new to riding and just recently bought a horse. This book, together with "How Your Horse Wants You to Ride," has been a great help to make sense of all the well-meaning advice and my observations.

It's not magic, just good horsemanship!
When I started riding, I asked an old cowboy to teach me to ride. He told me, "Keep one leg on each side of the saddle, and you stay in the middle". Lesson over!
Practical and easy to follow
Clinton Anderson's methods work, quickly and effectivly.this book is definatly helping me get my confidence back.Well written and easy to follow.

It HELPS
The most clear , concise book on working with horses both English and Westen I have seenin years.Especially helpful is information given by the participantsactually handling the horses about the mistakesthey make in each exercise, and how to correct them.. Pictures are lovely and informative- they show what should be done .A very common sense approach to horse handling using methods that really work, not gimmicks or short-cuts. ... Read more

Easy Read
This was very easy to read and extremely informative book.Couldn't put it down until I finished it.
John Lyons IS the best horse in the paddock!
As a professional horse trainer who lives her craft, I give John Lyons a TON of credit for making me the horsewoman I am today. John is known as America's Most Trusted Horseman and I'll take it a step further and call him the guy who writes THE how-to books on training. John's not a bells and whistles kind of guy, just one heck of a great trainer. If you purchase only one book on horse training, I suggest this reasonably priced book that beautiflly illustrates how John builds a foundation of trust and respect. If you are able to apply the basic principles illustrated, you will be able to improve any horse, regardless of age or experience - and I mean that for both you and your horse. The book features 20 progressive ground-work lessons to develop your horse into a reliable, accepting partner. I Give It 4 Hooves Up!

Good Book
I have this book and have used some of the things in it. It's not really what I need for my horse. She's two, really hyper, green and distracted. The instruction in the book is great. I just needed more of a detailed...do this, this might happen, fix it like this...book. I'm new at this. She's the first horse I've tried to train. I've been around horses for most of my life but training is alot different I'm learning. I have a new baby horse on the way though and I know this will be an invaluable resource for training her(or him). Along with Dr. Miller's Imprint Training. I would recommend this book. But I have really found alot of help in Clinton Anderson's new book. With all these books combined my horse and I are doing good and I know we'll both learn alot. It's a good book and valuable addition to anyone's library. ... Read more

Helpful for Western Riders too
Even though I ride western, 101 Dressage Exercises has helped me create more lift and forward motion in my horse while retaining flexion. I especially liked the chapters describing different stretches and massages beneficial to your horse. I also recently bought the author's DVD, which is also really helpful. It goes into more depth regarding work-in-hand, and helped me pay closer attention to my horse's muscular development.

Dressage Exercises
Yes there are 101 excercises, but no instruction on weight distribution and rein contact. It is mearly a list of things to do such that on a sleepless night I could come up with the same patterns. I would use it for ideas in a class so that I could keep things fresh.

Not as good as 101 jumping exercises
This book is a great help to plan and diversify flat work and seriously move forward in dressage. But it lacks the step by step progression plan that, in my view, makes 101 jumping exercises so much better than this one. It tells you what exercises to do, but not how to teach your horse how to do them. ... Read more

Wonderful teacher
The following is a copy of an email I sent to Kelly recently.
Very Helpful and Immensely Enjoyable
As an Equine (and Human) Therapist, I have to connect with horses in a professional setting quickly in order to do my job effectively whereby the horse can gain the most benefit in a limited amount of time.While there is definitely an innate ability one either does or does not possess in connecting with animals, Ms. Marks can help hone your skills and teach you safer horse handling.This helps make the horse feel more secure in your presence.A horse that feels safe will act safely.I feel strongly that even the most advanced horseman can benefit from reading it and have placed it on my "recommended reading" list at horseholistics.com.

Outstanding book!
If you could only buy one horse book, this would be it! This is a "must have" for all horse owners - I cannot stress this enough. I have read several books, but this one is my ultimate favorite and stands above the rest. We need more writers like Kelly Marks who truly understand the nature of the horse and how to handle and care for them humanely. If you do not own this book, I cannot recommend this book highly enough. You will be so amazed with the knowledge you will gain. For example, for behavior problems, this book teaches you to understand what your horse is trying to tell you, and to look to yourself for the answer, instead of looking for that quick, possibly inhumane, solution. She wants you to ask yourself, "Why is my horse doing this," as this is an important basis to determine a solution. Her psychological perspective will knock you off your socks. Not only will you have fun learning about your horse, but you will also have fun learning neat facts about yourself. She also provides excellent exercises that will help you to successfully build a wonderful relationship with your horse. There is so much important information in this book that you do not want to miss. Please read it; you and your horse will be so happy you did. :-)

USPC Manual - Beginning Level
I am a beginning & intermediate horseback riding instructor in Moscow, ID. I have found the Pony Club Manual for beginners to be a very helpful teaching tool - the illustrations are helpful and well-labeled, and the layout is easy to follow. The information is widely accepted as correct, and the text is well-written for the 10-15 year old ages. I include a manual in the price of all my beginning horse camps for 10-14 year olds.

Pony Club Manual
This is the an excellent introduction for anyone interested in horsemanship.It can be studied prior to joining the United States Pony Club or serve as a usful tool in teaching or improving horsemanship for the young or beginning equestrian.
A Must Have For Pony Club Quiz Bowl
I couldn't have gotten through Pony Club Quiz Bowl if I didn't have this book.I like the exercises in the book and now I do them on my horse.I learned alot while reading this book, like parts of the tack and how to be safe around horses.I like all the pictures in the book because it helped me to understand what it meant.I would reccommend this book to other pony clubbers and kids who like to ride. ...

Recommended for every discipline by www.horselogic.net
I highly recommend this book to all of my lesson students.I strongly feel that it helps the to progress more smoothly, and also have less "plateaus".I feel that any rider regardless of their chosen discipline should read this book.It really explains the principles behind riding correctly.This was a book that I was required to purchase and read at the equestrian university I attended.Again I highly recommend this book.It is easy to read and easy to understand. Plus it has very good illustrations to clarify points.I hope this review is helpful.www.horselogic.net

Boutiful imagery ultimately fails illuminate.
I got this book after many glowing reviews by others and also on the recommendation of my coach, and after reading it cover to cover several times and really trying the exercises, this book is unfortunately consigned to the dusty corner of my shelf..

Great book for the Intermediate rider working at home.
This book is great for riders who can easily walk trot and lope/canter and depart on a correct lead.
In an enlightened age, Cherry is still old school
Cherry Hill has come up with some neat little exercise books to offer you training ideas. But she has some outdated ideas on horse training. Compare the advice you get in her book "The Formative Years" with some of the more enlightened trainers published in the last 20 years.

A valuable addition to your equestrian library.
The number of excellent reviews for this book reflect the application to riders of all levels and disciplines. The most valuable aspect of this book is that it encourages the rider to formulate a plan for their schooling sessions and make a conscious decision not to do the same thing day in day out - something we are all guilty of on occasion. Make your schooling sessions more fun for you and your horse with this informative guide. ... Read more

Horse Housing
This is the best book on the subject that I've seen. The topic is presented in a professional way so that an amature builder can understand. It's accompanied by color photos and simple professionally drafted diagrams. I would recommend this reference to anyone.

Positively - A Pragmatic, Professional Resource
Horse Housing provides pragmatic advice on building and remodeling barns and sheds.This is a first rate publication offering the reader wonderful photographs and easy-to-understand illustrations combined with top notch writing by wordsmiths, Richard Klimesh and Cherry Hill.As a Texas State Certified General Appraiser of real estate since 1977, including rural properties, I need to be up-to-date regarding the details of what constitutes well-constructed horse facilities.This excellent book is a professional resource that facilitates a more precise completion of my assignments. Positively, this book belongs on your shelf when you start your next stable, barn or shed project!

I'm Not Just Horsing Around!
As a State Certified Texas General Real Estate Appraiser, I have had the opportunity to view improvements such as barns and stables on numerous rural properties."Horse Housing" is an excellent resource for rural appraisers.I'm not just "horsing around" when I say that if owners of some of the properties I've viewed had utilized tips in this book during their construction project they could have built a superior instead of poor or average structure .Texas is home to more than 1 million horses, about 15% of the total U.S. horse population. However, while people tend to picture horses in rural settings, the counties with the largest numbers of horses are in metropolitan Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth and San Antonio. So this book's guidance on zoning, building codes, and ideas for building an attractive/functional structure that is homogenous to an urban neighborhood is vital to a property owner/investor.It sounds like the reviewer from Michigan should have contacted her local Home Depot or lumberyard for advice on building stalls rather than expect detailed instructions in "Horse Housing." ...

Not worth the money
Save your money.Spend time with your horse.Go to an actual clinic or trainer if you can afford it.Parelli's writing is difficult.The concepts are difficult to understand and there is little practical or useful information.Horses are fairly simple.Parelli makes it sound exotic.It's not.

Man and horse unite
I would recommend or even make it mandatory for everyone even thinking of going near a horse to read this book. Pat Parelli gets it from the horses point of view, and makes it easy for us to get it too. I have a 2, 3 and 4 yr horse. I have worked with all of them utilizing the theories presented in this book. I have also bought his partnership level 1 and the tools to go with it. It works, my horses are responsive and a joy to be with.

Popular but expensive and often unsafe
Mr Parelli writes in a self-opinionated, pompous style about horses, trying to give the impression that he is the guru of all things equine. While his methods have undoubtedly enabled a large number of people to improve their relationship with their horse, one must remember that there are untold millions who have a wonderful relationship with their horse which owes nothing to either his expensively-marketed system or the costly, cutely-named gadgets which seem to be an integral part of this.

MUST read for all riders
I've never really benefited from reading books about riding in the past, but Hunter Seat Equitation changed that! I constantly refer to the book when I'm riding and it has made me much more aware of my body and aids. The pictures are wonderful and really give a good example of what you are trying to achieve. It even includes things you might not expect, like how to choose the right horse to compliment your style of riding. Wonderful book.

Best book on riding
This is the best book on how to ride. Written logically, and so the reader can understand how to ride. Watch the video after reading the book. Every time you read it, you get more out of it.

Required Reading
The guru of hunt seat equitation, George Morris's word is law as far as the hunter/jumper rider is concerned. Anyone seriously involved in the sport should be expected to read this book. ... Read more

Great for Beginners
Only new to the horse training realm and this book with it's well laid out structure and diagrams has been invaluable. It is also easy enough for my 12 year old daughter to understand and use.

A Must for Every Equestrians Bookshelf
I can never get enough of books with exercises that challenge both my horse and I.This book is one that every Equestrian should have, whether for training purposes or just getting back in shape.Half of the Exercises are really basic and a waste for an intermediate to advanced rider, but then again I guess all horses can use a few lessons in the refresher courses. The last 30 Exercises focus on long lining which I use on all my younger horses. They advance from driving a horse in a yin yang pattern to change direction to Figure 8s and Lazy 8s (just a flatten figure 8). Eventually the horse graduates to haunches in and shoulders in. I find that even more advanced school masters benefit from these exercises.
Valuable addition to any equestrian library.
Spice up your ground work with this educational guide and develop a better relationship with your horse in the process. There are often days when we perhaps don't have the time to ride, but instead of just longeing around on the circle we could be more constructive - this book can help you. I find this book particulary useful when starting young horses. ... Read more

Lives up to it's promises
This book is everything it was promised to be.I saw an excerpt from one of the chapters in Dressage Today and ordered it.It has beautiful color pictures, is very comprehensive and extremely helpful.I have been riding dressage for 1 year and I know that this book will be a great resource for me for many years.

The Dressage Solution!
This is a mammoth book and encompases everything dressage.As a former Dressage and Saddle Horse Judge I decided to purchase this book as it was written presuming readers needed no prior knowledge of the art.An excellent book for someone starting out in this field and also a must-have reference book for the initiated.I do like the way it covers Bits to Saddles and even covers further reading, outfitters and all that sort of nitty-gritty.The one small fault I found was with the item about "on-the-bit".It clearly states what it is, how it should look, above/behind etc, and gives some possible reasons for this - but unfortunately there are no suggestions for exercises to help put your horse on-the-bit.Personally I should have liked to see a section on "how-to-do" and some exercises to help with this manoeuvre to help riders to work along correct lines towards this goal."Commonsense Dressage" by Sally O'Connor gives a beaut description of how to work to achieve this.Otherwise this is an excellent book.

A must have, must keep book!
Occasionally there are books that cross my desk that are so stunning and exciting that everything else is put aside because I'm compelled to read the one that just arrived. The USDF Guide to Dressage by Jennifer O. Bryant is one of those 'must-read' books.

Great book for anyone
I purchased this book to help keep my 30 year old Morgan supple.Some of it can get technical and some of the sections are oriented towards the jumping horses, but you can defintely piece together a nice stretching rountine for your horse, no matter what your goal.

Excellent for sore horses
I found this book to be excellent for my back sore horse and horses recovering from stall rest. It certainly cannot hurt for horses that you don't want to end up back sore or on stall rest. I have seen major improvements in the suppleness of my horses. The spiral bound format also allows you to keep it set up ringside for quick refrence and it won't close on you unexpectedly! ...

Lessons with Lendon
The book is well written so the average person who is either starting out or is early in a riding carrer will benefit.I particularly liked the fact that she believes all basic dressage will help in what ever riding carrer you may wish to take.She spells out the riders total responsiblity verses the horse which I found to be very refreshing. I gave it 4 stars only because it was pitched below where I thought the book was based on the reviews.

Lessons with Lendon
This book is a reprint of a series Lendon Grey did for Practical Horseman Magazine some years ago. Excellent book, well done with very clear concepts and goals.The lessons are set up in a very logical order with lots of pointers on how to make the exercises work for you and your horse and what to do if you are not getting the right response. Each chapter ends with a riding challenge. This book is well worth the money, a great resource for student and teacher alike. You will return to it over and over again.

Good book
I found this book helpful. It is easy to understand and also has pictures for those who are more visual in their learning process. It covers a lot of the basics, which some need to go back to to help them in the more advanced movements of dressage. Dressage can be very initimidating with the language that is used, but this book explains terminology and concepts. This book also has "Lendons Challenges" which cover the more common errors riders tend to make when doing the different movements. The only fault I found was the majority of horses are wearing flash nosebands. To me this is a fashion of the times and curbs the horses potential. ... Read more

Captivating
"Riding Between The Worlds" is an excellent account of the physical, spiritual, metaphysical and emotional connection between humans and horses.I found the metaphysical explanations to be the most helpful and know that I'll keep this book close to me as an inspiration and a reference guide.
Requirement for Life
This book should be a requirement for every living person to read.Linda's view on horse and human emotions through her clients' experiences is incredible.I have learned so much about myself and others by reading this book.It has definitely improved the relationship between myself, my horses, and other people in my life.

Healing Angels with hoofs not beasts of burden
Kohanov's personal rendition invites readers into a world of horses and herds that bring more than just joy rides on a saddle. In the ancient celtic myth there was a goddess known as Epona - the horse goddess ... whose imagery symbolized protection and healing. Kohanov brings the essence of this Irish myth alive as she opens the world of healing horses and equine-facilitated therapy to readers. Horse lovers in particular will love this book. Told in a frank prose and honest voice of a successful music journalist ... Riding between the Worlds is a gallop through our emotions, an avenue of healing, and a trail to a tranquil possibility with our partner equines. Horses have been seen as beasts of burdens for centuries but their role in human civilzation has been profound. Horses are our partners more than anything else ... Alexander the Great and Bucephalus ... are just one example of how our modern world was forged through the hoofs in partnership with man. Kohanov's unique work brings the role of the horse into a new relationship with humankind ... from conquest of other lands ... to an inner triumph ... a victory over the demons that plague our emotional lives when pain goes unprocessed in the body. Horses, in Kohanov's world, are once again capable and active in healing humans through the next stage in our development as a species. This book confirms that animals help fortify the "kind" in humankind.

Sally Swift does it again.
I love her first book, and highly recommend both books to my students.This book has the same easy to understand format.Sally breaks down how our bodies function when we are riding.I really like the exercises that she uses on the ground.I frequently use the "monkey position" with my students.It really helps to explain use of the hip joint.I also find the "monkey position" helpful when introducing a student to the sitting trot.I cannot say enough awesome things about this book.I also do not fully agree with the first review.This book really shows a rider how their body affects the horse, regardless of your learning styles.The illustrations and pictures are very clear and easy to understand.They have helped many of my students to really gain perspective on how every little movement, or tense muscle affects the horse in some way.I feel that every rider should have a copy of both Centered Riding, and Centered Riding 2 Further Exploration.I hope that this review is helpful.

Still drives me spare
If you aren't a fan of Sally Swift's methods (analogies and metaphors) and the first book drove you to despair this second one is slightly better.There are some helpful texts and photos but she is still my least favourite writer.
Still the Best
Sally Swift proved to be an excellent teacher in her last book, and she maintains the title throughout the second edition. I find the illustrations and analogies to be excellent for my own use as well as teaching others. So many concepts are broken down and compared to every day events and mechanical workings that they are almost impossible to forget. Sally helps you understand the mechanincs of your own body as well as your horse's and helps us understand why our instructors tell us to do the things they do. ... Read more
