"This is a much needed book on the Weight Aids which should be
close to the heart of all who teach and coach riding." - Patrick
Print OBE FBHS This book is designed for all riders from the very
novice to the most advanced. Sylvia Loch teaches through
illustrations and photos how each tiny shift of the riders weight
will affect the horses balance. The weight aids are generally
taught only to higher level students especially those learning the
more advanced skills. Yet, by including them from the beginning,
novice riders will develop a much greater understanding of their
own bodies and abilities and those of the horse from day one. In
Sylvia's words...: The time has surely come to show all riders how
their body-weight impacts on the horse for good or bad. Feel and
balance should govern the whole ethos of equitation. In this book,
I show through pictures how the giving of the aids can transform
the horse in each and every movement so that our communication with
this wonderful animal takes us to new levels of understanding and
empathy. The Rider's Balance is well written and easy to
understand, and is yet another classic riding book from one of
Britain's leading classical riding advocates, Sylvia Loch.
