3.0 out of 5 stars
Thoughtful but disorganized
The message is all there in this book but finding it is a treasure hunt. There is some excellent advice, excellent exercises, and great information on how to progress.

    A fine dressage book!
    At the risk of repeating what everyone says about every book that they like, you must be this book and digest it thoroughly if you are at all serious about dressage.

    disappointing
    very disappointing book. The writing is poor, the book is disorganized, and consists primarily of repetitive statements about the author’s philosophy on dressage.

    Excellent book on dressage
    With all the books on dressage out nowadays, this is one that emphasizes developing the horse with daily exercises that he explains and then shows in lots of photos.

    Old wisdom yet always fresh! The it self was almost desroyed before I got it. The package was so poor that the book had no corners left!!! Well it was readable anyway.

    Wonderful
    I am really enjoying this book. The historical significance makes it a must read for anyone who considers themselves a horseperson and the art work included is beautiful.

    Good DVD for beginning Pilates students
    When I received this DVD, I had been both riding dressage and doing mat Pilates for about a year. I hoped the DVD would be good for a beginner but not too easy.
