Riding skills guru Mary Wanless looks at a series of common rider
faults or problems and, through words and photos, explains how to
correct them. Each fault or problem is demonstrated by a different
rider - some working at basic level, others advanced. Mary gives
each rider a lesson, taking them through the (often subtle) changes
they have to make, and recording their progress with specially
taken photographs. Readers can witness the changes taking place and
understand through Mary's gifted teaching, how to make the
necessary shift to improve their own riding skills.The 'before' and
'after' pictures show not only the improvements in the rider's
position and effectiveness but also in their horse's way of going,
for the two are interconnected. Among the topics for in-depth
discussion are rider position, muscle tone and stabilisation; how
our minds and bodies learn new techniques or change old habits;
rider asymmetry; mental attitudes; lateral work; advanced work; and
faults such as tipping forward, leaning back, hollowing the back,
rounding the back, and pulling on the inside rein.
