Horse trainer Jonathan Field has made a name for himself with his
unique ability to give people simple, understandable, doable steps
that lead to working with a horse "at liberty" in a safe and
progressive manner. At its most basic, many think of liberty as
"playing" with a horse without halters, leads, or other tack. True
liberty, says Field, is much more than simply removing equipment
and stepping outside the pen or arena: It is moving with your
horse, communicating only with intention, and creating a seamless,
smooth, and rhythmic dance. "When you do liberty right, you become
one with the herd," he writes. "And not only do you develop an
amazing connection with your horse, but it's one of the most fun
things you will ever do."
Developing communication skills and your relationship with your
horse through liberty benefits all that you do with your
horse--whether on the ground or in the saddle; whether competing or
riding for pleasure. Quick responses to subtle cues, clear aids,
and a relaxed and attentive horse: These are the keys to liberty,
and they are also objectives when we ride, drive, or work with the
horse on the ground around the barn. Liberty, therefore, teaches
you to be a better horseman. With Jonathan Field's step-by-step
liberty training method, you learn to have a better "feel," to
reward the horse sooner, and to time your aids just right to ensure
you get the response you want. Plus, you discover how to approach
things from the individual horse's perspective--an important key to
getting a horse to act because he wants to, rather than because he
has to. This fabulously illustrated book, featuring hundreds of
action-packed photographs taken on Field's spectacular ranch in
British Columbia, gives you practical and fun ways to teach your
horse to genuinely like being with you in all that you do
together--not through use of force or by bribing with treats, but
because he feels safer and more secure by your side.
