For the Good of the Rider by Mary Wanless Mary Wanless has spent almost 20 years developing teaching strategies to enhance riding performance and eliminate the difficulties which beset so many riders today. Her methods, renowned for boldly cutting through the conflicting advice so often given to riders, make talented riding a possibility. She explains that behind the art of riding lies a science, which has laws of cause and effect. Utilising these laws turns the rider's body into a sophisticated tool for influencing the horse, allowing her to mimic the techniques which gifted riders unknowingly use. Chapters on learning, sports psychology, dismounted exercises and bodywork expand the ideas put forward in her earlier books, dissolving mysteries of talent and showing how the classical principles of riding can be made much more accessible to 21st century riders. HB, Illustrated, 335 pages.
