Renowned rider, trainer, author, and equestrian philosopher Paul Belasik shares the daily schedule, weekly events, and his own musings over the schooling and training of four young horses as they leave their babyhood behind and begin their training for future careers as sport horses. Belasik’s honest and enlightened journal entries give the reader an inside look at training horses according to the classical system he has used for almost 40 years.
Editorial Reviews
Review
“The very heart of the book is the information about the horse’s neck and what to do with it. . . . The richness of the content of this book is way too valuable to bypass.” –“Dressage Today” (December 2012) “””This book takes a look at the day-to-day life with horses and the work that goes into them …. [A] valuable read for riders of any discipline.” –Jennifer Roberts, “Equine Journal”
