With scientific research to prove their point, trainers Andrea and Markus Eschbach show readers how they can train and ride horses in a way that is safe, even when they are using very little equipment/minimal tack. This book is your first step toward your dream of riding your horse bareback, without a bit, and even without a bridle, while still feeling secure and in control.
"The whole book has a very accessible, down-to-earth tone. . . . The Eschbachs eschew much of the salesmanship that some clinicians can't seem to avoid; they don't want you to buy their particular neck loop, they just want to tell you how and why to use one." --www.jazynka.blogspot.com (December 2011)
Andrea and Markus Eschbach are known for their horsemanship clinics all over Europe. They teach riders, whether beginner or experienced, how to work with their horse using minimal aids and equipment in order to preserve the well-being of the horse. For years, the couple has focused on taking what they have learned about horse behaviour and applying it to training methods that enable the horse to participate willingly and happily in all you do with him. Along the way they have been influenced by the work of Linda Tellington-Jones and Gawani Pony Boy, amongst others.
