Dressage Masters takes the reader into four of the greatest
training stables in Europe. The master instructors express their
philosophies and practices with regard to training horses and
riders, preparing for and taking part in competitions, and the
state of dressage in the United States and elsewhere in the world.
They also share fascinating and enlightening stories about their
own education and the triumphs and hurdles encountered along their
paths to success.
The trainers are:
Klaus Balkenhol: Olympic individual bronze and twice team gold
medal winner, who coached the German Olympic gold medal team and
the USA Olympic bronze medal team; Ernst Hoyos: trained Ulla
Salzgeber, winner of Olympic individual silver and bronze and two
team gold medals, and Lisa Wilcox, member of the United States
Equestrian Team bronze medal squad; Dr. Uwe Schulten-Baumer:
trained Nicole Uphoff and Isabell Werth, each the winner of four
Olympic gold medals. Isabell Werth also won two individual silver
medals. These two riders are tied for the Olympic equestrian record
of four gold medals. He also trained his son, Dr. Schulten-Baumer,
Jr, winner of the Alternate Olympics individual silver and team
gold, as well as an individual silver and team gold at the World
Championships; George Theodorescu: trainer of many top
international teams and riders, including his daughter Monica,
three- time Olympic team gold medalist and twice World Cup
champion.
Each interview includes insightful descriptions and sequence
photographs of exercises and other teaching and competition
techniques.
Already eagerly anticipated by the international dressage
community, DRESSAGE MASTERS is destined to become both aninstant
and a perennial classic in the literature of classical
horsemanship.
