Dressage is often seen as the most formal and controlled of the
equine sports, following an ancient, standardized training
progression. For philosophy professor and dressage instructor
Sherry Ackerman, dressage is a transformational art, an avenue for
reflection, exploration, and self-knowledge through which a rider
can experience liberation from the narrowly individual, egoistic
self. This second, revised edition of "Dressage in the Fourth
Dimension" is a pioneer work in awakening 'dressage consciousness'.
It requires readers to deconstruct every assumption they have ever
held about riding - to ask 'Why?' and to become okay with not
knowing.Drawing on such diverse sources as geometry, ancient
Western and Eastern philosophies, and spirituality, Ackerman seeks
to heal humanity's alienation from nature through riding and
dressage. She points readers toward liberation from societal
conditioning, from externally legislated morality and normative
thinking, and ultimately from their own egos. Her concept of the
Fourth Dimension requires the reader to leave the analytic,
objective mind behind and enter into the mystery of inspiration. A
short, unique, and enigmatic work that has enjoyed a word-of-mouth
reputation among horse people for years yet has also been
unavailable, "Dressage in the Fourth Dimension" will challenge
riders' assumptions about their horses and themselves.
