Over the course of her riding and horse training career, Kathrin
Roida has progressively gained a deep appreciation for the benefits
of gymnastic exercises, particularly those that can be taught to
the horse from the ground. "In-hand" training has long been used to
help develop the dressage horse, conditioning and suppling his body
while at the same time preparing his mind to grasp the movements
that may eventually be expected. Roida relies on these techniques
when working with young horses, which she prepares for under-saddle
training with exercises first learned on the ground, improving
balance and enhancing confidence by refining the horse's sense of
his body and where it is in space. Roida also uses in-hand
techniques to vary the training of the fully schooled riding horse
and to solve problems that may be more safely dealt with from the
ground. In this book she details her methods, sharing the stories
of a number of horses of different ages, breeds, and training
backgrounds, and demonstrating the steps to teaching them:
shoulder-in, travers, renvers, pirouettes, half-pass, piaffe,
passage, canter work, the Spanish walk, and much more. Throughout
her conscientious attention to what is best for the horse ensures
that not only do the lessons result in a horse that is healthy in
body but also one that is healthy in mind and happy in his work.
