Riding With Feel by Zoe Harrison - BOOK

Riding with Feel is a practical guide for riders of all standards and all disciplines who want to improve their ability to communicate with their horse when riding on the flat and over jumps.

It is the only book to deal entirely with the subject of developing the rider's ability to feel.

Zoe Harrison leads the rider through a series of techniques and exercises, some mounted and some dismounted, to increase their awareness of their own body and to more clearly feel their horse's movements and response to the aids.

This book will also be useful for coaches and instructors in guiding their students of all levels and all ages in the development of feel.

Riding with Feel is illustrated with line drawings and covers topics such as rider position, body awareness, application and timing of the aids, fitting of saddlery and the horse's balance and movement. Exercises are clearly explained in the text and presented in summary form in each chapter to further assist the rider in their training sessions.

The DVD is now on general release so riders may purchase it to help improve their training techniques whatever discipline they ride, as the DVD is designed to be used by individuals for self help or with groups in training sessions.

The DVD covers all the frequently used school figures, as well as additional exercises with a running time of approximately 60 minutes.

Using a combination of riding video clips, graphic animation and a summary of “action points” as the key points to remember, the DVD demonstrates the correct riding technique for each movement and highlights the technical components for the accurate riding and coaching of school figures.

The advantage of riding accurate school figures for the Rider is that when you ride accurate lines in your training sessions, you are better able to assess your horse's balance and training issues and when riding a dressage test, you will receive better marks for accuracy
