Invisible Riding

Too often, riding becomes a game of tug-of-war between horse and rider, with each struggling to gain more control over the other. In Invisible Riding, expert trainer Sylvia Loch offers tried-and-tested methods from the classical masters of Europe to improve communication and tune in to your horse, eventually arriving at a point where there are no boundaries. Using these techniques, commands become requests, then whispers, then thoughts, making for a more balanced way of riding based on cooperation and partnership. In 12 chapters, Loch covers everything from transitions to lateral movements, educating the ordinary rider on how to improve in ways that are virtually invisible to the naked eye. Written in an easy-to-understand format, this guide is a must-have for any rider who feels they are no longer progressing, or who wants to learn to cooperate effortlessly with their horse.
