Every day that I ride and train my dressage horses, I do the exercises described in this 300 year old manual of modern horsemanship, and I see my horses like the horses in the pictures--elegant, graceful, supple, and balanced. The exercises teach them collection effortlessly. I am grateful to have found this beautiful, pictorial manual which has helped me and my horses immensely in their training.
