Following the highly acclaimed Kottas on Dressage, this book offers
advice on the correct way to introduce work on the paces, exercises
and movements, together with in-depth analysis of common problems
and the ways to correct them. The author makes the points that many
errors, so easily attributed to the horse, are rooted in faulty
posture or aiding on the rider's part, and emphasises throughout
the importance of focusing on these issues at all stages of
training. Constant emphasis is also placed on the need to be
mindful of the horse's mental and physical ability to copy with
what is being asked of him - there are reminders throughout that,
often, the best way to achieve progress is to take a step back and
ensure the building blocks are in place that will facilitate the
next step forward. The need to consider various aspects of
conformation is also stressed - not all horses are perfect
specimens, and the overall training of any horse will be enhanced
if due consideration is given to individual considerations.
Dressage Solutions takes the reader through many stages of
training, from ensuring that the basic paces are correct, through
introducing the lateral exercises, developing the canter,
rein-back, piaffe and passage, to a final chapter that explains
some of the long-established movements of the High School. This is
a journey that will provide much food for thought, and a great deal
of invaluable advice, for all riders who have progress and their
horse's well-being at heart.
