Six Steps to a Schooled Horse by Susan Mcbane
This is a step-by-step training program for horse and rider blending together one of the most successful schooling systems in the world and the cutting edge principles of equitation science.The highly respected German Scales of Training, which aims for lightness and self-carriage in a calm, settled horse is the basis of the system which, combined with clear instruction, makes the technique accessible to anyone.Practical explanation and riding exercises provide a framework for achieving the six elements of a schooled horse, identified as: rhythm, looseness, contact, impulsion, straightness and collection.Clearly defined qualities and standards to aim for at every stage allows measurable progression and provides reassurance that help is always at hand should something go wrong.
Susan McBane is a classically trained rider. She is co-founder of the Equine Behaviour forum and a highly experienced author having written, amongst others, the 5 titles in the 100 Ways series and most recently, Revolutionize Your Riding, all for David & Charles. Susan lives in Lancashire.
