Here renowned trainer Mark Rashid introduces us to his
revolutionary method for training horses. His sensitive, thoughtful
approach emphasizes the importance of balance, and has led some to
refer to him as a real-life horse whisperer. "It has always been my
contention that working with horses is, or at least should be, a
delicate balancing act between finding how much or how little
direction it will take to help the horse we are working with
understand whatever it is we are trying to teach. Too little
direction and our efforts might become ineffective. Too much
direction and we may develop resistance and animosity between our
horse and us." With this sensitive, thoughtful approach, Rashid
challenges the conventional wisdom of "alpha leadership" and
teaches the reader to become a "passive leader"-a human counterpart
to the kind of horse other members of a herd choose to associate
with and to follow. Applying Rashid's principles and techniques
helps cultivate horse personalities that are responsive and
dependable regardless of the rider. Reliving Rashid's experiences
with him, you will come to feel the same sort of compassion and
appreciation for your horses that you do for the people in your
life. This edition features additional notes at the end of each
chapter that contribute to a more complete understanding of
Rashid's methods and philosophy.
