Ride with Awareness and Feel. The New Dressage Training System
991389
Eleven years ago, Joep and Tineke Bartels began the Academy Bartels—a unique equestrian enterprise focused on the development of innovative educational projects for the betterment of horse and rider. There, with the support of the Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI), Dutch Equestrian Federation, internationally prominent experts in horse behavior and training, and top dressage coaches and riders from around the world, they have studied the body and mind of both horse and rider. The result? A progressive method for refining communication between the two, thus achieving top levels of performance more readily.

Often considered an instinctive gift born to some riders, while a “Holy Grail” always to be sought but never to be found for others, “feel” is here deconstructed into conceivable and achievable parts:

• Learning to communicate with a herd animal and creature of flight.
• Evolving self–knowledge and self–control.
• Developing body language, coordination, and an independent seat.
• Learning to give effective aids with the “question–and–answer” method.

With the Bartels’ step–by–step method, every rider can advance from consciously positioning herself and her horse to naturally, easily and beautifully riding on “auto–pilot.”

TheHorseStudio.com Copyrighted Review: With all the press about Rollkur it is interesting to read a book that examines the 'other side' of the issue regarding riding the horse deep and round and the inherent risks and methods to use 'correctly.' Joep and Tineke have been very successful so their methods are proven in their results and their system is fairly unique. Lots of liberty work is used and there is a structured daily training regime offered. Some very good tips on how to ride on auto pilot learning how to not block your concentration evolving into a better and more confident rider. If you want to dissect the other side of the rollkur equation, check out Gerd Heuschmans book Tug of War and his DVD If Horses Could Speak available right here at TheHorseStudio.com.
