Widely known for her innovative teaching philosophy stressing body
awareness, the value of "soft eyes," proper breathing, centering,
and balance, Sally Swift has been a pioneering riding instructor
for half a century. In book form for the first time, her methods
enable horse and rider to achieve harmony, working together
naturally, without pain.
Unlike traditional teachers, Sally Swift does not believe in forced
training techniques that cause stiff bodies and tense riding.
Instead, through the use of vivid, unusual, and highly creative
images that transcend mechanics ("Pretend you're a spruce tree; the
roots grow down from your center as the trunk grows up"), plus a
thorough knowledge of human and equine anatomy, this wise and
inspiring teacher enables the conscientious equestrian to reassess
habitual responses, in order to ride in natural positions, break
through frustrating plateaus, and achieve ever-rising goals with
comfort, vitality, and precision.
Precise illustrations and photographs never before used in riding
books explain anatomy and image work to give mind and body new and
relaxed approaches to the inner process of riding.
"Centered Riding "is for those with little experience all the way
up to world class.
