ENJOYING DRESSAGE
Richard Davison

In the first of a progressive series of programmes, Richard Davison sets out the fundamental principles of good dressage with the help of training pupils and his wife Gillian.

Says Richard "Horses go as well as we ride them; Dressage is horse gymnastics and riders require self discipline and control - this may sound serious and it is but you can also have lots of laughs on the way"

In the first programme in this series, Richard concentrates on the rider's position and how the rider influences the horse's way of going.

The programme is broken down into the following chapters:

The Rider's Position
The Seat Bones
Correcting Positional Faults
The Sitting Trot
'The Going on His Own' Exercise
Response to the Rider's Leg
Accepting the Bit
Half Halt
Riding a Circle
Riding a Corner
