The Elements of Dressage from Kurd Albrecht von Ziegner a logical and proven approach to dressage work building correct foundations.

Super book explaining all the basic principles of dressage training from the noted Kurd Albrecht von Ziegner - fifty years experience of the German system - explaining the 10 basic points that need to be addressed in training the young horse. Which are: relaxation/regularity/freedom/contact/on the aids/straightness/balance/durchlasigkeit/schwung/collection.

Known worldwide for his presentation of the Prix St James test von Ziegner brings his knowledge post basics to lateral movement, school figures and movements, transitions, and flying changes. Von Ziegner's concept of the training tree has been adopted by many national dressage associations around the world and for good reason.

The results are successful, the program logical and systematic, and the method builds solid ethic and strengths for all levels of horsemanship.

This is a great guidebook for the dressage rider/trainer and it is well written. The text is succinct and to the point - and nothing is made 'mystical' or 'difficult'. Kurd Albrecht brings you over fifty years training experience from cavalry in Hanover, NATO officer, Turkish cavalry, and his operation of the internationally renowned riding school in Mechtersen, Germany. Well respected trainer here in the USA too - a great source for the right foundation to your work. Recommended.
