Synopsis
The well-known veterinarian, trainer and author of bestsellers TUG OF WAR and "Balancing Act," Dr. Gerd Heuschmann, In his new work, devotes himself to a topic that is so important in the training of horses and riders and shows why there can be no true assembly without correct position and bending. The only way to go from a horse in horizontal balance to a gathered (or collected) horse is through the path of correct bending. The anatomical and bio-mechanical background of this important training component is explained here for the first time in writing, taking into account anatomy and the science of movement. The necessity of riding in a specific and correct way, and the corresponding development have been known since the 19th century, however, the "why we must use this method" has not been explained in depth, until now.This work includes the following topics, among others:Why halt a horse, why bend it?Position and bending in classical equestrian literatureThe horse's natural crookednessThe correct positioning of the horse - another requirement for correct bendingThe biomechanics of position and bendingSide passagesA must have for every trainer and rider!Though previously known as "Collection or Contortion," Xenophon Press, with this new edition, returns to the original German concept conceived by the author.
