The Ethics and Passions of Dressage, Expanded Edition calls the
reader to a re-dedication to the art of riding and the traditions
of classical horsemanship. Charles de Kunffy challenges the reader
to ask questions such as "Should competition challenge or reinforce
classical horsemanship?" Furthermore, "What characteristics should
be cultivated to transform the rider into a complete horse person?
What are the individual's responsibilities to the preservation of
classical horsemanship and academic equitation?" De Kunffy explains
the true meanings of: non-confrontational riding and training, "on
the bit," engagement, the development of the correct seat, and the
use of hands and reins. He offers valuable advice on seeking
instruction in classical dressage training. In the chapter entitled
"Succinct Principles," de Kunffy doubles his single sentences
kernels of wisdom from the first edition. This monumental
contribution to equestrian literature is embellished with even more
carefully-selected images of equestrian statues than the original
edition. The Ethics and Passions of Dressage, Expanded Edition also
includes additional chapters, recommended for the serious
equestrian wanting to be simultaneously challenged and inspired.
This book is sure to reaffirm the rider's dedication to an ethical
approach to classical dressage. "If you want to express the utter
joy, the drive, the energy that takes you forward on your journey
with horses, it is here in this book." -Sylvia Loch
