I rode and showed in the hunter jumper world for 10 years, and am getting back in the horse world again after a 10 year hiatus. My focus now is just to have a good relationship with my horse and to communicate and work with him so he wants to perform.I've gotten my hands on a lot of books written by people from different disciplines. I fell in love with Mark Rashid's books because of the way he relates to his horses, and then I felt like this book by Mike Schaffer complemented the Rashid's philosophy but from a completely different angle.
This is the best training book I have read as it thoroughly and concisely explains aids done correctly and what makes that correct. This book is not mechanical at all in that it isn't a step-by-step manual per say. He gives the correct aid and the possible responses by your horse and encourages you to listen to and work with your horse to learn how to communicate with him--not to force responses.
This is also going to be helpful in training my little 10hh pony that I am too big to ride but want to be a good mount for my kids.
Thanks Mike for sharing your wisdom!

I keep this book on all my lists already read; reading now; want to read. I keep it by my bedside. I return to it again and again, because, inevitably, whenever I have a problem, I find the root in the basics basics that need to be brushed up; basics that were never taught; basics that were taught incorrectly. Understand this book---REALLY understand this book---and you understand the masters, from the ground up, in any discipline. And the good news is that's easy to do, because his writing style is clear, approachable, enjoyable, and jargon-free. When his sequel comes out, I will buy it instantly. See his training videos on his website.

If you want to get your horse moving better, or if you feel like you're always on a rocket, this book could really work for you. It takes you back to the beginning and helps you bond with your horse and get him listening and working better. It has lovely color photos and great descriptive text. You can tell the author has a lot of experience and offers many tips and suggestions for different training techniques. Totally worth it if you are looking for a way to get back to basics with your horse and start again from scratch. Would be great for people who have just bought a project horse (perhaps an ex-race horse) and want him to forget the ways of the race track and start thinking like a pleasure horse.
I wish I found this book years ago, in the early stages of discovering dressage! It would have made things much easier to understand. I compete and have been confused in the whole aiding and balancing g thing. This.... The French style is, as Michael puts it, a bottom up process not the typical top down system where your taught and expect the horse to respond to those refined aids!
Hello... Everyone need explanations on what's expected! And this put is the way it should be. Sure it sounds really slow by asking for in hand stuff, but that builds onto the ridden stuff and it soon snowballs in speed of the process because you as a rider know what your trying to achieve and feel and is well explained to the horse you both soon 'get it'
Michael puts the Basics that all horses should know on paper to study AND practice in
Softening
Move in
Move out
And in its many combinations you can and will be able to do those fancy tricks you didn't think we're possible... Like all the lateral moves and lovely soft transitions. The higher levels are just a refinement of these basics.!!!
The philosophy of classical riding is here and I hope more people discover it and practice it too. You will enjoy your horse more.
And it's worth having his other one too. It's puts the same things in another way. I often flick between the two.
And on a companion note.... It will help you get out of Preliminary /training level dressage.
Read, learn and practice.
This book is fantastic!
It teaches the human partner the correct mindset to communicate with the horse and help them understand what we would like from them, keeping their mental wellbeing paramount to being able to reach your goals. A horse is not a beast of burden put here to serve us.
They, like us ,are citizens of the earth.
Unfortunately for them they have lost their homeland and are stuck in a foreign country without knowing the language.
It is our job to help them understand not MAKE them understand.
This book will show you how to create a partner, not a slave.
Nothing is more rewarding than achieving goals together and doing it correctly.
The techniques in this book just make sense to me. I have recently realized that when dealing with young, spoiled or nervous horses I just have to be quicker than them. What I mean is a poke or a block or bringing them sharply around if they bolt often gets across that I am smarter and stronger (even though I'm not) better than if I had responded with a strong punishment.
Horses have to believe they can rely on you. They need a leader or they will try be the leader. You have to be reliable. That may seem silly but horses absolutely have a sense of 'fair play'. And they never forget anything. The trick is to figure out how to break things down into small logical pieces. I think the Author gets all this across.
No matter what your experience any time you're around a horse you are training that horse. For better or for worse.
Outstanding book! Best in my large equestrian related library. Straight forward explanations without cryptic terminology. Excellent video support on Mr. Schaffer's YouTube site. The icing on the cake is it really works! The young mare I am working with is excelling and is very happy under saddle. I was so impressed with my book, I bought three more to give to my friends who are training horses. They agree fully with my opinion of this book. Authors second book Riding in the Moment is equally informative and easy to read. Highly recommend!
