Dressage from the horse's point of view? Do horses think of the rider on their back as a 'supporting partner' or a dangerous predator? Author Ulrike Thiel faces this question head on, putting readers in the horse's position and allowing them to experience the 'process' of being ridden both physically and psychologically. Thiel discusses classical schooling and modern competitive dressage from the horses's prspective, offering precise advice for bettering the horse-rider relationship based on recent scientific findings.
