John Lyons- Bringing Up Baby- 20 Progressive Ground-Work Lessons to Develop Your Young Horse into a

5 stars (Easy Read) - This was very easy to read and extremely informative book. Couldn't put it down until I finished it. 5 stars (John Lyons IS the best horse in the paddock!) - As a professional horse trainer who lives her craft, I give John Lyons a TON of credit for making me the horsewoman I am today. John is known as America's Most Trusted Horseman and I'll take it a step further and call him the guy who writes THE how-to books on training. John's not a bells and whistles kind of guy, just one heck of a great trainer. If you purchase only one book on horse training, I suggest this reasonably priced book that beautiflly illustrates how John builds a foundation of trust and respect. If you are able to apply the basic principles illustrated, you will be able to improve any horse, regardless of age or experience - and I mean that for both you and your horse. The book features 20 progressive ground-work lessons to develop your horse into a reliable, accepting partner. I Give It 4 Hooves Up! 4 stars (Good Book) - I have this book and have used some of the things in it. It's not really what I need for my horse. She's two, really hyper, green and distracted. The instruction in the book is great. I just needed more of a detailed...do this, this might happen, fix it like this...book. I'm new at this. She's the first horse I've tried to train. I've been around horses for most of my life but training is alot different I'm learning. I have a new baby horse on the way though and I know this will be an invaluable resource for training her(or him). Along with Dr. Miller's Imprint Training. I would recommend this book. But I have really found alot of help in Clinton Anderson's new book. With all these books combined my horse and I are doing good and I know we'll both learn alot. It's a good book and valuable addition to anyone's library. ...

Centered Riding A Trafalgar Square Farm Book

5 stars (Centered riding is a classic) - This book is quite old, but it's teachings are solid. I'm very clutsy and have trouble walking a straight line. I'm also an older rider with previous injuries that get in my way. I'm just learning to ride and the descriptive images are fantastic and really get the point across. This book has helped me understand what my trainer is talking about and how I make the horse move. Subtle cues to make the horse do what I want without force, just finesse. This book is really for the beginner to intermediate rider. An advanced rider should already have figured this out. 5 stars (Great book!) - I highly reccomend this book to anyone who rides, no matter how experienced or inexperienced, or disciplines you WILL learn something from it and improve your riding. I have been riding for 10 years and I started reading it and by chapter 3 I had already learned alot and had improved some of my riding, yes some of it is real beginner-like but it can still help the advanced riders. It has improved my riding big time. But do get this book, be aware that it is NOT a "how to ride" kind of book. 5 stars (Centered Riding Brings a New Level to Riding) - My instructor recommended this book a few years ago and it has changed the way I ride and how I look at riding. I come from a hunter/jumper background but I think the ideas could apply to all types of riding. The hot horses go softer with these techniques and the quiet horses become more responsive. This book helps bring the rider's mind into the sport through exercises and diagrams that show new perspectives. Her second book is also excellent. This is one of my favorite books on riding, especially since I also practice yoga and martial arts. ...

Clinton Anderson-s Downunder Horsemanship- Establishing Respect and Control for English and Western

5 stars (Horsemanship's finest) - Clinton Anderson is one of the finest, most interesting trainers of horses and people that I have encountered. He is clear, concise and very funny. 5 stars (An easy-to-follow manual for horse training) - This is a great book that helps horse lovers deal with difficult horses. By going through a series of lessons with both an English and western rider, the reader understands the process via several points of view. Each horse and rider in the book has its own unique problems, and Anderson deals with each problem clearly and methodically. Its filled with colorful photographs and excellent illustrations. 5 stars (If you only buy one book on horse training, this is it) - It provides specific suggestions on how to work with your horse and what results you can expect. It addresses problems and provides detailed solutions in an easy to understand format. Adding the experiences of the two students in the book was a brilliant idea and helps the reader relate to the experiences in the book. Clinton Anderson is noted for his skill at communicating with both horses and people and this book is proof. Fun to read, great pictures, and well written. ...
