A Guide to Riding with Music. Rhythm Riding with CeCe and Frank Maddlone with Dr. Cesar Parra. New Release.

Overcome the obstacles in creating a musical freestyle with this professional tuition. This book also comes with a CD from Equichord that has 90 minutes of specially arranged music so you can get started riding to music right away.

TheHorseStudio.com review: With a commentary from four time gold medalist Nicole Upoff-Selke, FEI judge Dr. Volker Moritz and Internationally acclaimed trainer and competitor Dr. Cesar Parra, you know that you are in good company here. Cece and Frank Maddlone cover all the levels in a step by step process detailing the dos and don'ts along the way. There are charts that clearly indicate the acceptable and unacceptable movements at each level. So at Grand Prix you will clearly understand no triple canter pirouettes, an unfortunate mistake of one of our own team members this year and a costly one - ( see the DVD World Cup 2008 available right here at TheHorseStudio.com) - not that many of us wouldn't make a mistake under such pressure.... Cece and Frank provide capable instruction and cover basic compulsory requirements and explore the addition of music and culminates with reinforcing exercises.

In addition there is a guide to the technology available and the best metronomes to use. When you are finished with the reading side and have learned unmounted exercises like hearing the beat ( you'd be surprised how few people actually get it right), and have learned what to listen to a well as what to count and what to watch for in all three gaits you will be keen to get started riding. You will be delighted to discover that the book is accompanied by a CD which has 90 minutes of specially arranged music from the good studio Equichord. Learning to ride with the music and not in spite of it, as the authors suggest, and adapting steps and understanding the nuances of this art of freestyle, are all clearly detailed here. The book production is a handy loose ring allowing you to flip to the relevant parts quickly and the wizardry of the Equichord team is apparent in the CD. A really good way to get started in a very professional manner. Recommended.

Softcover. 155pp Includes color photos, drawings, charts and CD.
