Wholesale The Rider's Balance: Understanding the Weight Aids

Communication with horses is crucial for a successful partnership. Handling body language and using aids, such as seat, legs, and reins, are essential for a horse's understanding of our wishes. Classical dressage trainer Sylvia Loch believes that many riders don't fully understand the impact of their weight on the horse. Understanding weight aids helps riders cultivate better balance and empathy, leading to better riding performance. Loch's book provides an image-driven visual guide that demonstrates how each small shift in the rider's weight affects the horse's balance. With dozens of illustrations and color photographs, the book helps novice riders develop a greater awareness of their bodies and abilities, while experienced riders discover new avenues for successful riding performance and fulfilling relationships with their horses.
