The world of modern dressage includes an entire canon of doctrines,
which are never questioned, either individually or in form of the
system, which they present in their entirety. Everybody seems to
have a clear and complete comprehension of their meaning. However,
what does it really mean to drive the horse 'onto the bit'? Does a
stronger application of the rider's aids really encourage the horse
to place its hind legs further under its body? Is the term
collection really synonymous with the increased forward engagement
of the hind legs under the centre of balance? Jean-Claude Racinet
subjects these and other questions, regarding the anatomical and
biomechanical points of view, to a critical analysis and uncovers
many things in this context, which contradict each other. This
book, a summary of decades of extensive experiences as a rider,
offers a long-overdue contribution towards the discussion of the
sense and nonsense of the training doctrines commonly used and
applied in the modern form of dressage. It deals effectively with
prejudices and is aimed at supporting the art of horse-orientated
equitation.
