5 stars (Centered riding is a classic) - This book is quite old, but it's teachings are solid. I'm very clutsy and have trouble walking a straight line. I'm also an older rider with previous injuries that get in my way. I'm just learning to ride and the descriptive images are fantastic and really get the point across. This book has helped me understand what my trainer is talking about and how I make the horse move. Subtle cues to make the horse do what I want without force, just finesse. This book is really for the beginner to intermediate rider. An advanced rider should already have figured this out. 5 stars (Great book!) - I highly reccomend this book to anyone who rides, no matter how experienced or inexperienced, or disciplines you WILL learn something from it and improve your riding. I have been riding for 10 years and I started reading it and by chapter 3 I had already learned alot and had improved some of my riding, yes some of it is real beginner-like but it can still help the advanced riders. It has improved my riding big time. But do get this book, be aware that it is NOT a "how to ride" kind of book. 5 stars (Centered Riding Brings a New Level to Riding) - My instructor recommended this book a few years ago and it has changed the way I ride and how I look at riding. I come from a hunter/jumper background but I think the ideas could apply to all types of riding. The hot horses go softer with these techniques and the quiet horses become more responsive. This book helps bring the rider's mind into the sport through exercises and diagrams that show new perspectives. Her second book is also excellent. This is one of my favorite books on riding, especially since I also practice yoga and martial arts. ...
